SLIDEOUT ROOMS AND LEVELING
LEVELING SYSTEM
–If Equipped
The hydraulic leveling system makes
selecting a parking site easier and faster by
reducing the effect of uneven ground.
Hydraulic jacks raise the affected low corners
of the coach to make leveling “set up” faster and
easier for you.
The hydraulic leveling system control pad is
located near the entrance door.
See the Leveling System Operator Manual
in your InfoCase for complete operating
instructions.
It also contains additional
precautions, technical information, and
instructions for manual operation if a system
failure occurs.
NOTE: When parking at an uneven site, always
park the front of the motor home to the
downhill side. This allows you to level by
raising the front end rather than the rear.
Since only the rear wheels are locked
while in PARK, raising either one or both
of the rear wheels off the ground could
allow the vehicle to roll off the jacks.
Auto Level Remote Switch
-If Equipped
In addition to the main control panel, your
coach may be equipped with an additional remote
switch for your leveling convenience.
This switch allows you to extend or retract
your jacks and observe them at the same time. It
also allows you to stop them suddenly, if needed,
without having to climb in and out of the coach.

WARNING
•
Keep all people clear of the coach
while the leveling system is operating.
•
When extending the rear stabilizers,
do not lift the wheels beyond ground
contact. This makes it possible for the
vehicle to roll unexpectedly forward (or
backward) off the jacks. This could
cause severe injury or death.
•
Do not use the levelers on icy or slick
surfaces on which the foot pads may
slip.
•
Do not use leveling jacks to support
the vehicle for service or tire changing.
•
Do not use the leveler as an
emergency brake. They are not
designed for any type of vehicle
braking purpose.
•
Never check for hydraulic fluid leaks
using your hands and/or any other
body part. The leaking fluid is under
pressure and is capable of cutting and
penetrating your skin, resulting in
severe injury.
