Procedure<br />

FAILURE TO ACT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING<br />

MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.<br />

Read the entire operators manual and all pre<strong>caution</strong>s<br />

prior to operating this equipment.<br />

Do not use the jacks to change the tires. The system is designed as a leveling and<br />

stabilizing system and is not meant to lift the motor home off the ground.<br />

Do not operate any system functions while anyone is under the motor home.<br />

Make sure that people and pets are clear of the coach when operating the leveling<br />

system.<br />

Do not attempt to operate the system while the motor home is in motion.<br />

Never place hands or other parts of the body near hydraulic leaks. Oil may penetrate<br />

skin causing severe injury. Wear safety glasses when inspecting or servicing the<br />

system to protect eyes from dirt, metal chips, or leaks, etc. Follow all other applicable<br />

shop safety practices.<br />

The motor home should be parked on a fairly level surface. Ensure that there are<br />

no obstructions in the extend or retract paths of the jacks. If the surface is soft due<br />

to saturation or heat, place boards under the jacks to distribute the weight over a<br />

larger area. Using a board which measures approximately 2' wide by 2' in length is<br />

recommended. Ensure the front tires are pointing forward and not to the left or right.<br />

Note: Refer to manufacturer’s operations manual before operating.<br />

The automatic hydraulic power leveling system allows quick and easy leveling of the<br />

motor home from the driver’s seat by utilizing the system touch panel. The following<br />

instructions are general operating instructions.<br />

MAKE SURE THERE ARE NO OBSTRUCTIONS IN<br />

CAUTION THE EXTEND OR RETRACT PATHS OF THE JACKS.<br />

KEEP ALL PEOPLE CLEAR OF THE VEHICLE WHILE<br />

OPERATING THE LEVELING SYSTEM.<br />

Do not allow excessive motion in the motor home during the Auto-Level operation.<br />

This could cause the system to level improperly.<br />

1. TURN ON POWER. The power to the unit must be turned on. You need to have<br />

the ignition key in the ON position and the parking brake must be set to turn the control<br />

panel on. Push the POWER touch pad to engage power. The power touch pad should<br />

be lit when power is on.<br />

2. PRESS THE AUTO-LEVEL TOUCH PAD. The system will automatically level<br />

your vehicle. The control panel will send out a series of beeps to let you know that<br />

AUTO-LEVEL is operating. When completed, the panel will signal a successful Auto<br />

Level. After ten minutes, the panel will enter sleep mode.<br />

3. RETRACTING THE JACKS. Your Lippert System provides you with the ability<br />

to retract the jacks using the Retract All Jacks Button feature. Press and retract the<br />

Retract All Jacks Button. All jacks will automatically retract. The jacks are retracted<br />

when the Jacks Down light has gone out. Depending on the vehicle, full retraction<br />

may take up to 90 seconds.<br />

Note: Zero point, or level position has been preset at the factory.<br />

However, if you want to change the setting refer to the automatic<br />

hydraulic levelers owner's manual for detailed information regarding<br />

the proper procedures to do this.
