Jayco Eagle Fifth Wheels 2023 Electric Slide Room User Manual
Electric Slide Room
The mechanical components of the slide out are gear driven. Electric-powered slideout room systems have a manual override to allow you to extend or retract the slideout room(s) in case of a power loss. Make sure you have sufficient power available before operating your slideout system. Level the RV prior to extending the slideout. Slideout switches are typically located inside the RV, either in the command center or on the wall. If your RV is equipped with a touch screen control system, your slide room controls will be built into the touchscreen system.
General Slideout Operation
Warning
- Make sure the interior slideout room path and the slideout room itself is clear of people and objects before operating.
- Keep away from the slide rails and gear assembly when the room is in motion. They may pinch or catch on loose clothing causing personal injury.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious injury or death.
Caution
These guidelines should be followed when using your slideout room:
- Make sure the slideout is in the closed position prior to hooking the unit to the tow vehicle.
- The recreation vehicle must be level before operating the slideout room. Water leaks and other problems could result if the slideout is operated without leveling the RV.
- Do not place the excessive weight in the slideout room. It can cause the slideout room to malfunction and cause damage to the slideout.
- Do not over-extend/retract the slide-out room. Release the switch immediately once the room has been fully extended/retracted. Over extending/retracting the slide-out room may result in damage to the stop rod and bracket.
- Additional support jacks are not needed under the slideout. Damage can occur to your slideout room from improper use of aftermarket support jacks.
- The auxiliary battery (customer supplied) must be fully charged and connected. If possible, the RV should be hooked up to 120-volt AC power so the converter operates.
- The RV must be level and the stabilizer jacks in the extended position.
- To extend the slideout, locate the slideout control switch and press the OUT section of the switch; hold until the slideout room stops (travel time is approx. 25 seconds).
- To retract the slideout, press the in the section of the slideout control switch and hold it until the slideout is fully retracted.
Operating the switch after the room is fully extended or retracted may damage the switch and motor. After the slideout is extended, visually inspect the slideout and the surrounding area to make sure the slideout has extended properly and has adequate clearance from any outside obstructions. If the slideout is equipped with rubber seals, verify that the corners of the black rubber seal are set up correctly. The seal corners are cut at a 45° angle. The top of the outside seal must overlap the side of the seal to avoid the possibility of water penetration. On the inside seal, the side seal should overlap the top.
NOTE:
For long-term storage, it is recommended the room be closed (retracted).
General Slideout Troubleshooting Checklist
NOTE:
For additional troubleshooting information, refer to the specific slideout system detail.
If the slideout does not move when the slideout switch is depressed, follow these steps:
- Check the auxiliary battery (customer supplied) for a full charge and good wire connections.
- Check the 12-volt fuse or circuit breaker.
- Check for loose connections at the slideout motor.
If the slideout still will not operate, follow these steps:
- If the slideout is extended, refer to the section on operating the specific slideout system installed on your RV.
- If the slideout is retracted, leave it in that position.
If the slideout extends crooked or only one side moves:
- Follow steps on overriding the specific slideout system installed on your RV.
- You may need to push the side that is not sliding to get it to retract all the way.
Contact your dealer or customer service for repair assistance.
