Sleeper Bunks
Sleepers are available with a number of optional features. The following are some of those options.
Note: See the chapter on Climate Controls for detailed information regarding sleeper climate controls.
Note: Make sure bunks are locked in place before sleeping or driving the vehicle.
Sleeper cabs can come with a lower bunk, an upper bunk, or both.
Lower bunk configurations include a bed with a storage compartment or, in 72 inch sleepers, a pull-down bed with two foldable seats and a table.
The release lever to unlock the storage bed is centered under the bunk. Press the lever to the right and pull up on the bunk to access the storage compartment. Pushing the bunk back into its original horizontal position will cause the bed latches to lock.
Setting up the pull-down bed (see Fig.) consists of the following steps.
-
Table T-Pull Handle
-
Pull-Down Bed Release Latch
-
Lower Bunk Locks
-
Seatbelts
-
Seat Latches
-
Lower Bunk Latch Pins
-
Upper Bunk Latch Pins Engaged in Upper Locks
Fig. 1, Pull-Down Bed With Lounge
Note: To avoid damaging the upholstery, unlatch and move the seatbelts to the side before folding the chairs closed.
-
Pull forward on the seat latch while lowering the chair back toward the seat, and fold it down.
-
Pull the table t-pull handle forward, then push down on the top of the table until it is at the same level as the folded seats.
-
Pull out the bed release latch until you feel a release of tension. See item 2 in Fig..
-
Grasping the edge of the bed, pull it down until the lower latch pins engage in the lower bunk locks.
Setting up the lounge area consists of the following steps:
-
Pull out the bed release latch until you feel a release. See item 2 in Fig..
-
Holding the front edge, push the bed up toward the back wall until you hear or feel the upper latch pins lock into place.
-
Pull the t-handle and lift up on the table. As the table nears the correct height, the t-pull handle will be pulled back and lock into position. If this doesn't happen, reach under the raised table and push the t-pull handle in. Then gently push down to make sure the table is locked in the upright position.
-
To unfold each chair, push down on the seat latch while lifting the chair back.
Upper bunks fold up against and lock onto the cab back wall. To unlock and fold down an upper bunk, grasp the bunk release handle (see Fig.) and turn it to either the left or right and pull. To fold up and lock an upper bunk, turn the bunk release handle to the left or right and push up and back.
