Driving a motorhome is similar to driving a car. You have an ignition switch, gearshift
controls, turn signals, and dash components. As you sit in the driver’s seat the center
of the cluster includes tachometer, speedometer, fuel gauge, oil gauge, temperature
gauge, and amp meter. Switches may have symbols to describe their function. Switch
locations may be different from model to model.
The dash radio can be played without turning the ignition key “on” provided that the
battery disconnect is in the “use” position. For units with the home theater, the dash
radio can only be played if the ignition is in the “accessory” or “run” position. The
cruise controls are on the turn signal lever. You can set, resume, and disengage the
cruise control from this location.
The gear selector is located on the right side of the steering wheel. Pull the lever
toward you to place into the desired gear. Be sure the service brake is applied when
making this selection. See the Chassis Owner’s Manual for more information. Some
models have an overdrive switch on the end. Press the button to engage/disengage
to overdrive function.
Below are descriptions of the various controls on your dashboard. Please keep in
mind that these controls may be located in different positions, styles or not available
depending on the model of your particular vehicle.
SUNVISORS: These switches control the sunvisors. Each shade works separately,
with each assigned switch. Lower the sunshade to desired level.
HEATED MIRRORS: Use this switch to defrost your mirrors.
ICC: Courtesy Flasher (DOT-Lights): Flash after a semi-truck passes you or as a
thank-you asher when you are passing.
WIPERS: This switch is for HIGH, LOW or intermittent operation.
WASHER: This switch located on to the wiper switch provides washer uid to the
windshield. Check the washer uid level prior to trips. Some washer uid can freeze,
so be aware of the temperature conditions where you will be traveling in order to add
the proper type of uid to your washer reservoir.
REMOTE MIRRORS: This switch allows you to set the viewing angle of your mirrors
from the convenience of the driver’s seat. To adjust the driver’s side mirror, move the
lever to the left. For the passenger’s side, move the lever to the right and adjust as
needed.
