Main Door

 

CAUTION: When towing, the door lock and dead bolt must be secured. If it is

 

not locked, the constant vibration of travel may cause the door to open with

 

possible damage.

 

Screen Door

D

The screen door secures to the main door by means of a slide bolt type latch. It can

be operated independently by releasing the slide bolt and swinging the screen door

away from the main door.

 

Step

 

To operate the step, lift up on the front of the step and pull straight out until step locks

 

into place. Some units will be equipped with a double step. After extending step, the

 

second portion folds out. To store the step fold it back into position, lift the front slightly

 

and push the step back into its storage area.

 

Warning: Once the steps are lowered, press down on them to make

 

sure they are secure in their notches.

 

CAUTION: Never travel with step lowered or extended

 

Exterior Windows

 

Lifting two red vertical latches up past vertical opens the escape windows of your

 

trailer. This releases the sash from the window frame and allows it to be swung clear

 

of the trailer.

 

Turning the large operating knob counter clockwise opens the standard windows.

Clean your trailer windows the same way you clean the windows in your home. Clean the seals with a damp cloth or mild detergent every three to six months, taking care not to use strong solvents, as they will damage the seals. A coat of natural silicone lubricant applied after the seal has dried will keep it flexible. Spread the lubricant evenly with a brush or finger, working it into the surface.

This is a good practice for all rubber seals in your trailer. For replacement of a damaged window contact an Airstream Service Center.

Window Stoneguard

Stone guards are provided for added protection on the front windows. To open the guard, unhook the two rubber T-handles on the botom of the guard, raise the stone- guard to the desired height, and tighted the thumb screws on each support arm. Be sure to lower and fasten the guard when high winds may be approaching and before travel.

Wrap Protectors

The front end of the trailer is equipped with stainless steel protectors covering the lower corner wraps. The protectors provided added protection from road damage. The protector can moved out of the way for cleaning by unbolting and swinging the protector forward on the hinge.

Awnings

Complete instructions have been provided with your awning. You should make sure your traveling companion is familiar with the operation of the awning. If a sudden wind should come up, or if high wind is forecast, the awning should be retracted and stowed.
