Before You Head Out
Your new Sunlight is ready to go with just a little bit of preparation. To prepare for your first trip, you should:
• Read this manual.
• Contact your dealer with any questions.
• Plan your trip.
Then use this quick checklist:
• The day before your trip:
o Charge your RV batteries by plugging in overnight. (*If equipped with optional Lithium batteries, inverter must be in on position.*)
o Cool your refrigerator by turning it on.
o Chill any beverages or other refrigerated items in your home refrigerator.
o Flush and fill your fresh water tank with clean tap water.
• The day of the trip:
o Load the refrigerator with beverages and other perishable items (from your home refrigerator).

Coming Home
When you come home, there are a few maintenance tasks you should do to get your Sunlight ready to go for next time. Refer to other sections in
this manual for the procedures listed here.
On your way home, dump the black waste water tank at a convenient facility. See the HOW TO’s: Waste Water Dumping for a concise
description of the procedure to do this. Some RV parks and gas stations will let you dump for a fee, some city wastewater plants will let you
dump for free but there is no real pattern, so local knowledge is vital in locating dump stations.
• The website http://www.sanidumps.com is a good resource. The website with maps for each state and province is
http://www.sanidumps.com/maps/help.php.
• At home, flush the water tank and fill it with fresh chlorinated water if you will be using it in the next few days. Otherwise, drain the tank. Don't
let water you are planning to use sit in your tank for more than a week or so, and don't let any water sit in your tank for more than two weeks,
whether you plan on using it or not. Over time, the chlorine evaporates allowing bacteria to grow.
• To flush the tank, fill it using the fill port located on the driver's side body panel approximately half way between your front and rear axles;
(See images below) (Picture 12.2).

Coming Home (Continued)
• Plug in the shoreline connection overnight to fully charge batteries. View your battery voltage on your coaches monitor panel.
• Turn off and clean out the refrigerator and prop the door open to let it air out.
• If you plan on storing your Sunlight for an extended period, turn off the Battery Disconnect Switch and the Inverter Switch on your monitor
panel to keep from draining your AGM or Optional Lithium battery(ies).
• * If you turn everything off and you have optional solar panels, the panels will keep your coach batteries charged to a safe level while your
Sunlight is parked.
o Solar panels will only keep your Sunlight charged if parked outside.
• If you don't have solar panels, it is required that you check your coach battery state of charge every week and charge them as necessary.
• If you don't turn everything off, even with solar panels, you will probably come back to dead batteries.
o Based on the electronic systems on your coach needing small amounts of electricity even when off, you will probably come back to
dead batteries over a period of time.
o If your coach is equipped with optional Lithium batteries, the battery switch(es) need to be on so the solar panel(s) can provide a
charge to them. Turn the switch(es) off at the end of the day to maintain the battery charge.
• If you are not planning on storing your coach for an extended period, it is recommended that you plug in your coach to charge the batteries
to keep them from draining.
o Plug your coach into a dedicated power outlet. (Dedicated outlets provide a cleaner line of electricity supplied to the coach) (Picture
14.1 On Next Page)
o Turn on your battery disconnect switch. (Picture 14.2 On Next Page)
o If your Sunlight is equipped with standard AGM battery turn on your inverter switch.
o If your Sunlight is equipped with the optional EcoTrek Lithium battery, turn on your Lithium Battery switch and make sure blue light
is illuminated. (Picture 14.3 On Next Page)
o Turn your inverter to the on position. (Picture 14.4 On Next Page)

Cabinets
Your Sunlight is equipped with cabinet latches which
prevent the door from opening while the vehicle is in
motion. The push buttons on the cabinet latches toggle
from latched (button in) (Picture 15.1) to unlatched
(button out) (Picture 15.2) by pressing the button.
To open a cabinet, press the button to unlatch and pull
gently on the button, and the cabinet door will open.
To close a cabinet, make sure the latch is still open
(button out), then close the door. Once the cabinet door
is closed, press the latch button in to lock the cabinet.
Picture 15.1 Picture 15.2
Push Button for Cabinet Latches Push Button for Cabinet Latches
In Closed Position. In Opened Position.
Do not attempt to close the cabinet doors while the latch button is pressed in. This could break the latch. Always make sure the button is out
before attempting to close a cabinet door. (Picture 15.2)
It is not recommended to keep large, round, and/or heavy objects in a cabinet unsecured as they may roll around and apply excessive
pressure to the inside of the cabinet doors as you drive. The objects may shift position with vehicle motion and cause injury when the
cabinets are opened. For this reason, Ewin Hymer Group North America recommends that you are aware of the objects that you store in
overhead cabinets.
If you load a large amount of weight into a cabinet, experience large swings in temperature or humidity, ride on bumpy roads at high speeds
frequently, or sometimes as part of normal wear and tear, the cabinet hinges may go out of adjustment. You will know the cabinet is out of
adjustment when it will not open with the button out, or not latch with the button in.

To open a cabinet stuck shut with the button out, apply pressure UPWARD with your thumbs on both bottom corners of the cabinet door while
simultaneously applying gentle pressure to open it, as shown above left. (Picture 16.1)
DO NOT FORCE THE DOOR OPEN BY PULLING OR PRYING ON IT - you will break the latch.
The screw in the top part of the hinge nearest the pivot point adjusts the vertical location of the door (Picture 16.2). Screw out to raise the door and
screw in to lower the door and fix doors that won't stay shut when latched, as shown above left.
Cabinet Adjustment
The screw on the long bracket hinge is used to apply or reduce the friction needed on your cabinet door to open and close smoothly.
Using an allen wrench, turning the screw to the right will tighten the hinge and put more friction on your cabinet door where turning left will loosen
the pressure that is applied and allow for the cabinet to be opened with less force. (Picture 16.2.)

Front Table and Front Swivel Seats
This vehicle will not drive unless the front seats are forward facing and locked. The vehicle will not go into gear.
The two captain's seats in the front of your Sunlight are adjustable fore-and-aft by pulling up on the metal bar under the front seats. (Picture 22.2)
Always return the seats to the forward-facing position before driving. They must lock into position for the vehicle to operate.
To create a front lounge area, first ensure that the seats are fully upright by lifting up on the outside plastic release handle and bringing the backs of
the seats forward. (Picture 22.1) Do not attempt to pivot a reclined seat. Use the forward-aft adjustment bar while pivoting the seats to allow the
sides of the chairs to clear the armrests on the vehicle doors, the console cover, and other obstructions. (Picture 22.2) Do not force the seats
around. Swiveling the driver's seat may require you to loosen the telescopic steering wheel adjustment and adjust the steering wheel. Opening the
front doors slightly will allow you to clear the door armrests easily but is not required.
To rotate the front seats, slide the seats all the way forward, lift up on the inner plastic release handle to swivel the seats. (Picture 22.3)

side door, it is possible for the curtain to get blown out of the track. Always close the window prior to closing the nightshade.
The window shades set slide to the right and left. The plastic clip on the nightshade covering is not a pull tab; it is a locking tab. Always pull on
the aluminum bar. (Picture 24.3) *Failure to do so could cause damage to window screen or cause the screen guide to come off track.* The

Bathroom Facilities
Using the Toilet
The bathroom in your Sunlight contains a macerating toilet. (Picture 29.1)
To flush the toilet, use your foot to press the foot pedal located at the bottom left of the toilet to expel the waste, then release the foot pedal.
Do not use standard toilet paper which will clog your black water tank - use only camping grade paper which will dissolve easily when it gets
wet. *For detailed information on this appliance consult the Products/Appliance Owner's Manual that accompanies your coach.

When finished showering, air dry or wipe off sliding shower door and shower curtain before securing.
Taking A Shower
• To take a shower, unscrew the drain stopper in the bathroom floor and store for safe keeping and reinstallation after your
shower.
• Release loop fastener straps retaining the shower curtain and slide the shower curtain along its track to enclose the shower
space.
• Pull the faucet/showerhead up and adjust the water temperature as desired. There is a water cutoff on the handle to
conserve water.
• When finished, either towel off or air dry the curtain and sliding shower door before storing it.
• Refasten the drain stopper to prevent the contents of the waste tank from sloshing up into the shower area while driving.
