Jayco Alante 2023 Cab-Over Power Bunk Bed User Manual
Cab-Over Power Bunk Bed
Your motor home may be equipped with an over-the-cab power bunk bed. The storage position for the bunk is near the ceiling. Any time the bunk is raised into the storage position, the seat belt-style interlock (Fig 1) located at the left end of the bunk, must be latched. The interlock belt, when latched, disables the key switch, and the bunk cannot be lowered/raised even if the key switch is ON. The bunk bed may include a steel ladder that hooks onto the side of the bed in order to access the sleeping area. Do not exceed the weight limit of the bunk ladder.
Warning
- There should be no people, pets, or objects on or below the bunk while raising or lowering it.
- With vehicles in transit, the bunk should always be in the raised storage position with the interlock belt latched. Never ride on the bunk while the vehicle is in motion. Never store the bunk ladder or any other objects on the bunk when it is raised in the storage position and the vehicle is in motion.
- The capacity of the Cab-Over bunk is 750 lbs. maximum. Do not exceed the maximum weight limit.
- The weight limit of the bunk ladder is 300 lbs. (136kg) maximum.
- Failure to comply with any of these guidelines may result in serious injury or property damage.

Lowering the bunk:
To lower the cab-over bunk, unlatch the interlock belt (Fig 1) (it operates just like a seat belt), insert the key into the key switch (on the left end of the bunk) (Fig 2), and turn it to the right to the ON position (Fig 3). Lower the bunk by pressing and holding the yellow down arrow under the picture of the bed on the key switch label. The bunk automatically stops when it is fully lowered. Return the key to the OFF position.
Raising the bunk:
To raise the cab-over bunk, turn the key switch to the right to the ON position, and then press the yellow up arrow above the picture of the bed on the key switch label. The bed will begin rising. When fully raised, return the key to the OFF position, and latch the interlock belt (Fig 1).
The black rocker switch (Fig 2) operates the ceiling light above the bunk.
NOTE:
If the ceiling light is left on when raising the bunk, it will automatically turn off as the bed rises regardless of the rocker switch position.
Your recreational vehicle may be equipped with bunk-style beds. Bunk bed weight ratings may vary depending on your model and the style of the bunk bed. Weight capacities are listed on the bunk capacity label. Do not exceed the bunk weight capacity.
Bunk Ladders (if so equipped)
Your recreational vehicle may be equipped with a ladder to access the upper bunk. This ladder may be a separate steel ladder or a wooden ladder attached to the bunk beds.
Bunk Beds and Bunk Ladders (if so equipped)
The top of the ladder is secured to the ladder storage compartment. To operate the ladder, lift up and out of the storage tray. Pivot the bottom of the ladder out. Be sure the ladder is securely in place on the floor before climbing to the upper bunk. When storing the wood ladder, place the bottom of the ladder back into the tray in the storage compartment. This keeps it secure during transport and clear of walkways. The steel ladder (if equipped) will simply hook onto the upper bunk.
NOTE:
Some types of bunk beds do not include a ladder.
Warning
- Exercise extreme care when entering or exiting the bunk beds and using the ladder.
- Do not allow more than one person on the top bunk.
- Do not allow children under 6 years of age to use the upper bunk.
- Do not allow horseplay on or under the bed and prohibit jumping on the bed.
- Make sure the ladder is anchored properly to the bed.
- Never allow more than one person on the ladder at a time.
- Children should always be supervised when using the ladder or when entering or exiting the bunk beds.
- The weight limit of the bunk ladder is 300 lbs. (136 kg). Never exceed this weight.
- Maximum weight limits for bunk beds will vary depending on the model or bunk style. Never exceed the maximum weight specified on the bunk capacity label.
- Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious bodily injury.
