4.1 GENERAL MAINTENANCE
4.1.2 Acrylic Windows
The windows fitted to your Bailey Leisure Home are manufactured from high quality acrylic using the
latest plastic processing methods.
For cleaning, use only generous amounts of water to wash away dust and road grit etc. Then use a soft
cloth and warm soapy water and gently remove the remaining dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaning materials
and detergents.
As with all plastic materials, acrylic should not be allowed to come into contact with chemicals such as
paint remover, fly spray, acetone, dish washer detergent and car cleaning detergent.
▲ Never polish with a dry cloth.
▲ During high sun do not close the window blinds completely and open the windows into the
ventilation position.
▲ While the caravan is in motion please ensure that the windows are fully closed (this
information is also detailed on the stickers in the windows).
▲ Dependant on the temperature inside the caravan to that outside, condensation may be
experienced between the window panes. This is a perfectly normal occurrence as the
windows are not sealed units. To disperse condensation remove the small bungs, using a
pair of blunt end tweezers, in the corners of the window unit (prefereably on a warm day)
until the condensation disperses and then replace the bungs.
4.1.3 Window Catches and Stays
Turn catch arm to the vertical position to open. A night vent position is available by depressing the
locking knob and locating the catch into the outer catchplate slot.
The windows are held open by an adjuster knob, tightening off the knob in a clockwise direction will
hold the window open in the desired position.
Always ensure knob is unscrewed before closing the window. Failure to do so may cause damage to
the window stay arm.
▲ Always ensure that windows are fully closed during wet weather and not on night vent
setting.
4.1.4 Interior walls
The interior walls have a GRP/PVC lining which should not require cleaning too often. A wipe over with
a damp cloth and a very mild detergent is all that is needed to keep it immaculate.
