Outside Rearview Mirrors

After adjusting the front driver’s seat, adjust the outside rearview mirrors to your driving preference. Have someone help you adjust the mirrors in the desired direction for maximum rear visibility before driving. During travel, vibration may loosen the fitting holding the mirror(s), causing them to change position. As part of your regular motor home mainte-nance, check and adjust the mirrors to the desired position.

Power Remote Mirrors (if so equipped)
You can adjust the power remote mirrors when the ignition key is in the ON position.

1. Move the control knob to the side you want to adjust.
2. Press the control arrows in the direction you want the mirror to move.
3. Return the control knob to the center to lock the mirror(s) into place.

The power remote mirrors also contain heating elements to defog or de-ice the mirrored glass if needed. To activate this feature, use the “Mirror Heat” control located on the driver’s side console next to the mirror control joystick.

NOTE: Depending on models, the mirror control joystick and the Mirror Defrost toggle switch may be separated from each other. The Mirror Defrost switch may be renamed Mirror Heat.

Rear Vision Camera
The rear vision monitor gives a limited televised view of what is behind your motor home. The rear vision camera will aid you in backing up the motor home, and can be used for a greater field of vision when driving in heavy traffic. The monitor is operational whenever the engine is running. To use the monitor, flip the switch from standby to ON (the monitor will also work when with the motor home is in “reverse” and the monitor in standby). Make sure you turn the monitor to standby while driving to avoid being distracted.

NOTE: Never operate the rear vision monitor in the ON position for ex-tended periods of time as this may result in an “image burn” on the monitor.

Your RV may also be equipped with side view cameras mounted in the mirrors or on the body of the motor home (facing rearward) to give you views down each side of the motor home. Check the outside rear view mirrors when driving and backing for a more complete field of vision. For detailed operating and safety information, refer to the manufacturers user guide.

Campsite Hook-Up

• Refer to Electrical Systems section before connecting the shore line power cord (when using full hook-up) OR before starting the generator or operating the ve-hicle on 12-volt power when dry camping.
• Refer to Fuel & Propane System section before using the LP system. Open the LP gas tank valve (if so equipped) slowly. There may be air in the lines and five to thirty seconds of time is needed to bleed air before LP vapor fills the lines.
• Refer to Plumbing Systems section before connecting the fresh water supply or turning ON the water pump or water heater.
• When using full hook-up, connect the sewer hose to the campsite sewer hook-up.
• If applicable, start the refrigerator and the cooling or heating system.

NOTE: For extended dry camping, management of all your resources is es-sential. Check your battery levels and conserve battery power, use it spar-ingly.

Equalizer Hydraulic Leveling System
FAILURE TO ACT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH!

• The leveling system is designed only for leveling the unit and should never be used to provide service for any reason under the motor home such as changing tires or servicing the system. It is not recommended that you change a tire yourself.
• Check that potential jack contact locations are clear of obstructions or depressions.
• Keep people clear of the motor home prior to turning the leveling system on and while the leveling system is in operation.
• Never expose hands or other parts of the body near hydraulic leaks. High-pressure oil leaks may cut and penetrate the skin causing serious injury.
• After starting the leveling cycle, it is important that occupants do not move around in the motor home until the vehicle is level. Failure to re-main still during the leveling cycle can affect the leveling jack system sensors.
• Never lift the wheels off of the ground when leveling the motor home.
• Do not move the motor home while the jacks are still in contact with the ground or extended. Damage to the vehicle could occur.
• Do not rely solely upon warning lights to determine the position of the leveling jacks. It is the operator’s responsibility to check that all the lev-eling jacks are fully raised in the travel mode before moving the motor home.

For detailed operating and safety information, refer to the manufacturer’s user guide. Levelling your motor home is important for the following reasons

• The water drainage systems are designed with proper slope and must be level for proper operation.
• The appliances perform best when level.

Before operating the leveling system, the motor home:

• Must be parked on a reasonably level surface.
• Must have the parking brake engaged.
• Must have the transmission gear selector in NEUTRAL.
• Engine should not be running

NOTE: The slideout room should be extended (with the air suspension ful-ly aired up) before leveling jacks are deployed. Wheels MUST be straight. When the coach is leveled, air bags are dumped of air which lowers the fend-ers below the tops of the wheels. If the wheels are not straight, fenders and/or tires WILL be damaged. DO NOT DUMP AIR FROM AIR BAGS UNLESS WHEELS ARE STRAIGHT!

Auto Level Operation

• Power On: Push and release the power button to engage power. The LED light next to the power button should be lit RED when power is on. You will need to have the ignition key in the off position to extend the jacks (most applications). If you attempt to manually extend jacks or all jacks with the Auto Level button, you will hear a deny tone from the keypad if the ignition key is in the on (engine run) position (most applications). Also depending on if the park brake disable is con-nected and the park brake is released you may not be able to extend jacks.
• Auto Level: Press the Auto Level button and release. The system will send out a continuous series of beeps and the “Operating” LED will be on to let you know Auto Level is operation and will automatically level the coach. Do not move around or exit the coach during this operation, doing so will fault out the operation or result in an incomplete leveling/stabilization operation. When completed, the Keypad will signal the successful completion with a dual-stage tone. The Keypad may be left on once level has been achieved. The Keypad will enter “sleep mode” after five minutes of inactivity.
• Note: Auto Level will be denied if the jack indicator lights are on. To clear this press all, retract then perform Auto Level.
• Setting the Null: Null is the term used to indicate the levelness of the coach. A Null setting should have been performed by the installer. If the coach is not level following an attempt to Auto Level, you will need to level the coach and reset the null.
  1. To set the null, first press the POWER button on the keypad to activate the unit. The LED light next to the Power button should be lit RED when the power is on.
  2. Level the coach by deploying jacks manually, or by simply parking the coach on a level site. You do not need to have the jacks deployed to set the null. Use a bubble level on a flat surface in the center of the coach as a reference. Once the coach is level, turn the power off at the panel.
  3. Depress and hold the Auto Level button and press and release the Power but-ton and listen for a series of beeps.
  4. After the Keypad has beeped 5 to 6 times (the Keypad will continue to beep as long as the Auto Level button is held) release the Auto Level button you should get a confirmation beep.
  5. The new null has been set and the panel will store/remember this setting. Press and release the All Retract button to retract the jacks to the stowed position.
• Retracting the Jacks: Use the All Retract button to retract the jacks prior to travel. This system does provide the ability to retract the jacks using the UP but-tons for each pair of jacks. However, these buttons are not intended to be used for retracting the jaacks to their stowed position prior to travel. The Up arrows are to be used only for retracting the jacks to help level the coach. The All Retract button must be pressed to ensure the system is ready/safe for travel. All jacks should au-tomatically retract and return to stowed position when the ALL RETRACT button is pressed and released. The pump will run in retract for approximately 5 seconds after the last jack has been fully retracted- or until a time limit of 90 seconds has been reached.
