Maytag 2006 owner manual Slide OUT Room, Failure to Retract

Camping

	SLIDE OUT ROOM
	The trailer should be level prior to extending the slide out room. The front stabilizing
	jacks MUST be deployed. If the front jacks aren’t down when the room is extended
	the side to side imbalance will twist the body of the trailer if it’s only supported by the
C	front hitch jack. Please read the complete leveling and stabilizing instructions in the
	Extended Stay part of this section.
	Once leveled and stabilized, locate the switches to operate the room. They are black
	and located on the interior wall just forward of the room. The left switch, marked lock
	downs, must be used first. The lockdowns are the large paddle latches on each end
	of the room. Depress the switch to the unlock position and hold. You will see the
	paddle latch on the forward end of the room retracting. Hold the switch down until
	the panels are completely retracted and you hear the operating motors just start to
	strain. The motors are thermal protected so you won’t have to worry about damag-
	ing them. All models also have magnetic travel blocks that need to be removed from
	the travel latches.
	Now hold the slide out switch in the out position. Hold the switch until the motor stops
	indicating the room is fully extended.
	Retracting is the same procedures in reverse order. Make sure the room is re-
	tracted and the lockdown paddle latches are firmly engaged PRIOR to storing the
	stabilizing jacks.

FAILURE TO RETRACT

In the unlikely event the room won’t retract, the first place to check is the lock down paddle latches. If curious fingers have hit the lock down switch and the latches aren’t fully closed, power is automatically cut to the slide out switch. To correct this situation depress the unlock position on the lock down switch until you’re sure they are fully retracted then try the slide out room switch again.
