Slideout Systems
SLIDEOUT SYSTEMS
Slideouts are designed to provide additional living space
during stationary camping. Make sure you have sufficient
power available before operating your slideout system, then
level and stabilize the RV. If the RV is not level, the slideout
rooms and/or mechanisms may become damaged as level-
ing helps keep the RV square so the slideouts extend/retract
and seal correctly. Adding additional support is not necessary
under the slideout rooms. Non-warranty damage can occur to
your slideout system from improper use of aftermarket sup-
port jacks.
OPERATION
The slide rooms will make slight creaking or squeaking noises
during operation. These noises are normal especially during
the break-in period while the components are seating prop-
erly. This will decrease after a few extend/retract cycles. Note
that there will always be some noticeable noises when operat-
ing the slideout.
1. Level and stabilize the RV.
2. Be sure the auxiliary battery is fully charged or the RV
is connected to shore power. Turn off all unnecessary
lights to maximize available power.
3. Close all cabinet doors and drawers.
4. Before extending, be sure the area outside each slide
room is free of obstacles such as trees, boulders, fenc-
es, etc.
5. Before extending or retracting, be sure the interior is
clear of people, pets, furniture, clothing, etc. Move any
furniture or other items that may be in the path of the
slideout room.
6. Inspect the sides, top, and bottom of the extended slide
out room. If the outside of the slideout room is wet,
wipe it dry before retracting it. Clean any water puddles
or debris brought inside your RV from slideout opera-
tion immediately.
7. Press and hold the appropriate slide room switch to
either IN or OUT, until the room is completely extended
or retracted. Each slideout must be completely extend-
ed or retracted for the room weather seals to be effec-
tive. occur.
