EQUIPMENT - INTRODUCTION
This section covers the basic operation and care of various types of equipment found in the
motorhome, most of which are provided for entertainment and comfort. More detailed information about
specific equipment may be found in that particular manufacturer’s manual. Optional equipment will also
be discussed in this section which may not apply to all motorhomes.
INFORMATION:
Detailed information with CAUTION or WARNING instructions for the various elec-
tronics, other than what is provided in this section, can be found in the manufacturer’s
manual.
ENTRY STEP - Operation
The entry step includes the exterior electric entry step, which features retractable steps, automatic
retraction with the ignition key in the RUN position and a last out feature. Located, just inside the
entry door, is the step switch. The switch has a bar light indicator which, when illuminated, indicates
the circuit is active.
NOTE:
When dry camping, turn the Entry Step switch off to prevent
unnecessary step actuation and draining of the chassis batteries.
Operating the Entry Step:
1. With the entrance door open, turn the step switch on.
2. Close the door. The step should retract and lock in the IN position.
3. Open the door. The step should extend and lock in the OUT position. The step
will retract when the door is closed.
4. The step is equipped with a power switch. When the switch is turned off, the
step should remain in the extended position with the door closed. Close the
door and turn on the ignition switch. The step will retract for travel.
5. With the power switch off, the step extended, the entrance door closed and
the ignition turned on, the ignition override system will engage to automatically retract the
step.
6. Turn the ignition off and open the door. The step will extend and lock in the OUT position.
This is the “last out” feature. When the ignition is on the step will always activate with door
movement, regardless of the power switch position.
CAUTION:
High curbs can impede step operation. Use care when parked on side streets.
