Leveling Controls
Power Gear Control - Hydraulic Systems:
The three-point hydraulic leveling system is
operated from the control module to manually or
automatically level the motorhome. The control
features a multiple warning system with ashing
lights and an alarm to alert of a jack down.
Power Gear/Valid - Optional Air Leveling:
The touch panel, computer controlled, four-
point air leveling system controls air-leveling
operations. The ignition must be ON in order for
the leveling system to function.
NOTE:
Air leveling will NOT operate unless
ignition is ON.
DASH
Gauges
NOTE:
Some of the items depicted in the dash
drawing are not used depending on
floor plans and equipment options.
1. FUEL:
The fuel gauge will register
approximate fuel tank level when the
ignition switch is in the run position.
NOTE:
Fuel mileage varies with driving style
and road conditions. Always average
more than one tank of fuel to obtain
a more accurate figure. The diesel
generator and the optional Aqua-Hot
system both use fuel from the main
tank and will affect fuel mileage figures.
Diesel generators and Aqua-Hot will not
operate below ¼ tank to ensure there is
enough fuel to run the engine.
2. TRANS TEMP:
Shows approximate temperature of the
transmission uid. DO NOT let the
transmission cooler oil temperature
exceed OEM specications. Stop the
motorhome and shift into neutral if
excess temperature is indicated. Idle
the engine at 1200 to 1500 RPM and
allow transmission uid temperature to
return to normal.
3. OIL PRESSURE:
Indicates oil pressure (not the amount
of oil in the engine). Please refer to
manufacturer’s instructions for specic
pressure recommendations.
