where to set level

I have been trying to find the best place to set my level to reset the auto levelers on our 2015 3582. Anyone got some suggestions? thanks, Dennis B

Different model, but I used the floor in the kitchen area to set my manual levels. But I know some have said they use the stove top so that their oil, butter, eggs, etc. don't run to one side of the skillet. Seems like a good idea.

Wife uses the bathroom door for front to back and the floor in front of the door for side to side.

I'd use a main floor area. Slides seldom settle in the same level plane that the main frame does and would be a poor choice for the focal point of level.

Top of the stairs, in front of the bathroom door for us.

In a previous sob, I would use various doors to determine level. If I opened the fridge door, bathroom door or a cabinet door and it stayed put, I was level.

Really depends on the model and how well it was constructed. I chose the middle of the kitchen floor and I can't tell that it's out of level anywhere else.

Define acceptable level, ie; bubbles exactly centered or within lines?

level

I use the exterior wall for the side by side and the floor of the cargo for back to front and I can do it alone
