Site Set Up Checklist

Upon arriving at the site, park the RV so that is it nearly level and for best access to:

Power (max 80 ft)

Water (max 50 ft)

Sewer (max 20 ft)

and ensure clearance for the slide and awning.

Set the parking brake.

Keep the RV running to enable lowering of the leveling jacks and extension of the slide.

  1. Turn On the leveling jack system power.
  2. Wait for the indicator lights to stabilize.
  3. Only the Power, Ignition On and each Jack’s lights should be on.
  4. Avoid rocking the RV and press the Auto Level button.
  5. When the Operating light goes out, check to make sure each jack’s foot is in contact with the ground.
    1. If not, press the All Retrack button and try again.
  6. Confirm the clearance for the slide and make sure nothing in the RV might prevent it from extending.
  7. Press the slide Out button until the slide stops.
  8. Turn Off the ignition.
  9. Turn Off the leveling jack system power.

Open the RV door and turn Off the step retractor, if you haven’t already done so.

If Water is available:

  1. Connect the white hose to the source.
  2. Connect a second white hose if required.
  3. Connect the hose to the water inlet (passing the hose through the bottom access hole).
  4. Make sure the Water Valve selection is set to Normal.
  5. Turn on the water at the source.

For Hot water:

  1. Make sure the water heater power on the heater (external) is set to On.
  2. Set the operating mode switch in the bathroom to Eco.
  3. If you plan to take a shower soon, you can switch from Eco to Comfort mode in advance of your shower.
  4. Set the operating mode to Eco or Off if you do not plan to use hot water for a while.

If external Electric is available:

  1. Make sure the AC and any large electrical load is off.
  2. Pull out the 30 Amp cord and open the pass-through by turning the latches and snapping the cover down.
  3. Connect the plug to the source (use the extension and adapter if necessary).

If Sewer is available:

  1. Remove the RV sewer drain cover.
  2. Connect the sewer hose to the RV sewer drain
  3. Use the hose support and extend the sewer hose to the sewer.

  3. Press and hold the start button until it starts.
