This is for the older hwh slides from the late 90's

SLIDE OPERATION CHECKLIST
1. Parking Brake - Set
2. Transmission - Neutral
3. Check For Outside Clearance
4. Compartment Doors - Closed 
5. Furniture/Rugs - Clear
6. Engine - ON
7. Engine Speed - High Idle
8. Suspension - Travel Mode
9. Slide Control - Operate - Never stop mid cycle 

Any suggestions or otherwise would be appreciated

Was notified the refrigerator lights were off & in fact the inverters were not working.  Rather than troubleshooting that, I started the generator & ran it all day.  I called Jimmy at Newell, duh, turned the inverter control ON.  That cured that, who knows why it turned itself off or why it wasn't part of my thought process.

Went to plug into the 50A campsite power & when I raised the lid a bunch of wasps flew out.  One did a flyby and stung me on the tip of my nose on its way.]]>

Does anyone know what has to be turned off when we park our Newell for a few months without a 110vac line?
If we turn off all the batteries, do we lose any computer program's & what about the Inverter?
 
Thank You,

I guess I've been spoiled as my bus conversion has complete, detailed build specs. Everything is documented, wiring, electrical, plumbing, heating system, etc. Every wire is numbered on each end and described in the wiring list. It has made maintaining the bus incredibly easy to track, trace, diagnose, and resolve any and all issues.

So, what reason would Newell have to block release of these documents? Has anybody been able to obtain a full set of build docs from them, even accepting all printing and pre costs?]]>
