DRIVING
AIRSTREAM CAB CONTROLS
NOTE: Switches will vary according to options on vehicle.
Most automotive gauges and controls are standard instruments provided by the chas-
sis manufacturer. Their function and use is described in your Drivers Manual. The
exception on automotive controls is the heater/air conditioner. Operating- instructions
on these components can be found in the chassis section of this manual.
DASH SWITCHES:
• Aisle Lights The low aisle lights will allow passengers to converse without
using overhead lights that could be bothersome to a driver at night. These
lights operate on the Coach electrical system.
ARMREST SWITCHES:
• Docking Lights The docking lights illuminate the area at the side of the
motorhome and are intended for use when parking in a campground at
night. These lights operate on the Engine electrical system.
• ICC Blink With this switch it is possible to blink the clearance lights on the
motorhome. Ifs most commonly used as a way of indicating your thanks for
a courtesy shown to you by another driver. This switch only operates with
the headlamp switch on.
• Backup Camera The rear view-monitoring camera has two positions. One
will show the rear bumper and operating the switch tilts the camera to view
further back.
• Defrost Fans In cool, damp weather these fans really help to clear the
large windshields.
• Door Lock The main door deadbolt can be locked or unlocked electronically
from the drivers seat. Remember to hide an extra door key on the exterior
in case of unexpected battery failure. The manual knob is located by the
passenger seat and is for interior use only.
• Auxiliary Start The auxiliary start switch is used to start the motorhome
if the engine battery becomes too discharged to turn the engine over. To
operate, hold the switch in the start position, and then use the ignition switch
in a normal fashion. Operating the auxiliary start switch closes the points
on a large solenoid, tying all three-vehicle batteries together for increased
starting power.
• Generator Switch - The remote generator switch on the dash allows the
driver to start or stop the Generator without leaving the driver’s seat. It
should be noted a built-in time delay allows the generator to reach full
operating speed before 120 volt current is provided to the coach.
