SLIDE OUT ROOM
The trailer should be level prior to extending the slide out room.
NOTICE: The stabilizing jacks MUST be deployed and trailer level before ex-
tending room. Failure to deploy the jacks and level the trailer may cause slide out
room to lose its proper adjustment for extending, retracting, and sealing.
If the front jacks aren’t down when the room is extended the side to side imbalance
will twist the body of the trailer if it’s only supported by the front hitch jack. Please
read the complete leveling and stabilizing instructions in the Extended Stay part of
this section.
Once leveled and stabilized, locate the switches to operate the room. They are black
and located on the interior wall just forward of the room. The left switch, marked lock
downs, must be used first. The lock downs are the large paddle latches on each end
of the room. Depress the switch to the unlock position and hold. You will see the
paddle latch on the forward end of the room retracting. Hold the switch down until
the panels are completely retracted and you hear the operating motors just start to
strain. The motors are thermal protected so you won’t have to worry about damag
-
ing them. All models also have magnetic travel blocks that need to be removed from
the travel latches.
Now hold the slide out switch in the out position. Hold the switch until the motor stops
indicating the room is fully extended.
Retracting is the same procedures in reverse order.
NOTICE: Make sure the room is retracted and the lock down paddle latches
are firmly engaged PRIOR to storing the stabilizing jacks.
FAILURE TO RETRACT
In the unlikely event the room won’t retract, the first place to check is the lock down
paddle latches. If curious fingers have hit the lock down switch and the latches aren’t
fully closed, power is automatically cut to the slide out switch. To correct this situation
depress the unlock position on the lock down switch until you’re sure they are fully
retracted then try the slide out room switch again.
Check your 12-volt distribution panel for blown fuses. It is located on the right side of
the cabinet under the front window.
The next option is to manually close the room. Under your trailer, where the room is
located, there’s a large hinged access panel attached to the underside of the trailer.
It’s rectangular and about a foot wide and six feet long. On the side opposite the
hinge, three or four stainless steel screws hold the panel closed. Opening the access
