4. Locate the slideout operating switch (location varies
per model and floor plan) and:
Hydraulic slideout
: Press and hold the slideout oper-
ating switch until the slideout room is fully extended,
then release switch.
Electric slideout
: Press and hold the
IN/Retract
button
for 3-5 seconds, then Press and hold the
OUT/Extend
button until the slideout is fully extended AND hold
the switch for an additional 3-5 seconds, then release
the switch (this procedure helps to keep the slideout
motors in-sync).
NOTE:
• Slideouts will not operate properly if the auxiliary
battery(ies) voltage is low. Prior to Class C slide-
out operation, plug into shore power or operate
the generator to avoid a low battery voltage con-
dition.
• Many slideout problems can be avoided by keep-
ing the slide motors in sync. Follow the instructions
listed in Step 4 (above) every time the slides are
extended.
• Always hold the IN or OUT switch until the slideout
is completely in or out. Avoid releasing the switch
while the slideout is partially open or closed.
• There is a 30 second delay feature on the tilt-a-
bed slideout (if equipped), to allow time to raise
the head of the bed.
• Before retracting a slideout, always visually inspect
the roof and awning of the slideout for any debris
or damage. Check the gear tracks for debris or
damage. Always perform an interior and exterior
visual inspection to ensure slideout is fully retract-
ed and prepped for travel.
• For complete operational and maintenance slideout
information, refer to the slideout documents and
how-to videos available through your TMC
Owners Resource on-line account:
www.thormotorcoach.com/owners/owners-resources
Ensure that children and pets are kept well away from
moving slideouts. Gear tracks present a serious pinch
hazard; keep hands away from moving slideouts.
Ensure that the interior floor and space is clear of
any obstacles that could impede the slideout travel or
become entrapped under the slideout.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Retracting the Slideout
Use the same safety precautions as previously stated for
slideout operation, and:
1. Be sure there are no obstructions on the floor of the
coach or in the path of the slideout.
2. Ensure there is no visible dirt or debris in the track of
the slideout or under it. Trapped dirt or debris could
cause damage to your carpet or flooring, slideout
rollers or gear tracks.
