POWER FOLD-DOWN REAR BENCH SEAT

Your coach is equipped with a power folding rear bench seat� The

seat is raised or lowered to an infinite range of positions by an electric

motor, which is powered by the coach’s house battery� If the motor
does not operate for any reason, check to ensure your house battery
is fully charged, as the motor may not operate off a weak battery� In
this situation you may wish to start the coach or turn on the generator

(if equipped) to power the unit and recharge the battery. Alternatively,
you can connect to shore power which will provide sufficient current to

operate the motor until your house battery is fully charged�

The power folding rear bench seat is equipped with three pairs of
seatbelts for use by adults and children who do not require a child

safety seat. The belts are permanently fastened to the load floor

directly behind the rear bench seat and must be fed in between the
rear seat back cushion and the rear seat bottom to be used�
When not in use, the rear bench seatbelts may be rolled up and stored

warning

on the rear coach floor. This is convenient when folding down the rear
seat for use as a bed or as a flat storage surface. See the following

image, which depicts a pair of seatbelts correctly passed through the
rear bench seat�

NOTE

A discharged house battery may not provide sufficient power

to the rear bench seat motor. Start the coach, plug into shore
power, or turn on the generator if the battery is low.

DANGER

Never allow occupants to ride on the rear bench seat without
their seatbelts securely fastened. Failure to wear safety
restraints will result in serious physical injuries and / or death
in the event of a crash.

The power folding rear seat is operated through the Firefly interface

display� By pressing the “BED” up or down button on the display, the
rear folding seat will raise or lower from the normal seating position to a

completely flat horizontal surface, which may be converted into a bed.

To maximize sleeping area, lift the driver’s side rear ottoman seat

cushion and remove the filler shelf from its stored position under the
side seat. Place the filler shelf between the two ottoman seats just

forward of the lowered rear seat� Next, remove the two ottoman side
