TV Antenna
The television (TV) antenna is a manual crank
style antenna with built in electronics that use 12
Volts DC to “boost” signal strength. A weak or
fuzzy signal can be amplied by turning on the
TV antenna power button on the video selector
box. The antenna and booster work together
to provide the best possible picture for most
situations. Certain conditions may occur that
require no amplication, and amplication may
actually worsen the reception. In this case, the
picture quality may improve by lowering the
antenna and providing no amplication.
WARNING:
DO NOT raise the TV antenna near
overhead electrical wires. Contact may
cause serious injury or death. DO NOT
move the motorhome when the TV
antenna is up.
To Raise the Antenna:
Rotate the crank handle clockwise to
raise the antenna (about 14 ½ turns).
Pull down on the outside directional
wheel and rotate the antenna until the
best picture is obtained. The directional
wheel is spring loaded.


To Lower The Antenna:
Pull down on the
directional wheel
and align arrows
together.
Rotate the
crank handle
counterclockwise
to lower the
antenna fully into
the cradle. Make
an outside visual inspection to ensure the
antenna is properly stowed.
CAUTION:
DO NOT move the motorhome with
antenna in the raised or partially
raised position and risk damage by tree
limbs or wires. Worm gear damage or
breakage may result.
WARNING:
Before raising antenna, make an outside
visual inspection for any obstructions or
overhead electrical wires. Damage to the
antenna, severe shock, personal injury
or death can occur from inadequate
clearance.
Video Selector Box
The motorhome is equipped with a video
selector box which has ve inputs and three
outputs.


Features Include:
Push button controls allow sending
signals from any one of ve different
inputs to two televisions and VCR.
Five inputs are Satellite Receiver, TV
Antenna, VCR, Cable TV & Auxiliary.
Three Outputs: Main TV, TV2, and VCR.
Built-in 12 Volt DC television antenna
power supply eliminates need for
separate wall mounted television antenna
power supply.
Self-resetting breakers used in the
antenna power supply prevent failure
caused by shorted connections.
Video switch allows independent viewing
of signals on different televisions with a
record option from VCR.
NOTE:
Two areas will be mainly used on
the video selector box. For functions
regarding the front television, make
selections (TV Ant, Cable, etc.) in the
area marked Main TV. For the bedroom
television, use the area marked TV 2.
To Operate Any Entertainment Component:
All the entertainment components require 120
Volt AC to operate. Hook to shore power, start
the generator or turn on the inverter. Ensure
the battery cut out switch is on and the house
batteries are charged. The ignition key must be
in the OFF position.
