Black knobs

In my level up box there are two knobs with slides marked under each. What do these do? Just got my 3791RD last week trying to remember everything that was said during the walk thru. Thanks

Those are for your hydraulic slides. If you want to keep them in, or just open one and not the other you can turn them on and off there.

I've never tried it, but my recollection is you can stop a slide from moving by selecting one or the other. I have three knobs because I have three slides.

Those with only two, like our new one, have one or more cable slides.

Our rig has four hydraulic slides, so four valves. Just open one of the valves fully and operate your slides. The one that does not open is the one controlled by that valve. I just used a fine Sharpie to note below each knob which slide it controls. If we need something at the back of the rig or maybe the bedroom while stopped somewhere, we can open all the others that we don't need and just open the slide we want.

The 2 knobs are for the 2 kitchen hydraulic slides. Your other 3 slides are electric. You should have 4 slide out switches in total, a separate switch for each of your electric slides. One switch for your 2 kitchen slides. If you only want to extend the table slide, turn the black knob marked ODS (off door side) off and if you only want to extend the fridge slideout, turn the black knob marked DS (door side) off.

Black knobs

You might want to test them in an open area, as mine were labeled opposite of how they functioned. Thought of replumbing them, but decided relabeling was much easier
