[QUOTE=MarylandMatt;74469]Yeah, that is annoying about the engine. The same lockout also applies to the awning, you can not bring it in our out while the engine is running. Depending what I am doing, I like to do that last to keep shade on the side of the rig.

The jack system needs 12.7 volts to operate (it's electric pump). Fully charged batteries supply 12.6 volts. The awning has an interlock just like the step, so the awning doesn't come open when driving down the road. Unfortunately it does not not have a safety interlock to retract it when the parking brake is released. Unintentional opening has happened to many older Dometic awnings in 50 mph winds. I suggest you always have the generator running or on shore power when deploying the slides. The more voltage the easier it is on the little slide motors.
