1. The slide-out is slightly tilted except when it
is in its full “IN” or “OUT” position. Extend
the slide-out near its full “OUT” position.
When the slide-out straitens up and that it is
perpendicular with the vehicle body, stop the
slide-out.
2. Loosen the “out limit” sensor mounting
bracket screws and move back the sensor
completely (toward the inside of the vehicle).
3. Bring slowly the sensor toward the outside
of the vehicle until the light emitting diode
(LED) turns on. When it does, tighten the
mounting bracket screws.
NOTE
When the “out limit” sensors are properly
adjusted, the slide-out extension stops before
the side inner stoppers reach the vehicle
structure.

NOTE
The removal and installation procedures are
all based on standard service methods
described in section 18: BOBY. Refer to this
manual for procedures, tools, cleaner,
adhesives and other product needed.
16.1 FACE PANEL REMOVAL
Use the same procedure as described in section
18: BODY for MTH side panel removal, and:
• Keep the slide-out retracted;
• Make sure not to damage the finishing
molding supports to be able to re-use
them;
• Remove the old adhesive on the finishing
molding supports and clean them before
re-using;
• Check where adhesive, sealant and
double face adhesive tape are on the
structure and the panel back side, in order
to be able to stick the new panel in the
same way;
• Check the tape width and use same width
tape when installing new panels.
