sponge to prevent water spots. Do not scrub or
use brushes on your skylights.

WHEEL LUGS
Because of the possibility that a wheel lugs
could work loose, it is important that you check
your wheel lugs every 50 miles when new until
200 miles is reached and then check lugs every
500 miles. The wheel lugs should also be
checked after winter storage, before starting a
trip, or following extensive braking. Also be
sure to check the wheel lugs after changing a
tire. Over-tightening can distort the wheel.
DOORS AND WINDOWS
Lubricate door hinges, locks and window
mechanisms periodically with powdered
graphite. Clean window frames and tracks to
ensure easy operation. Clean the glass
windows, inside and out, with a commercially
available glass cleaner. You can also use a
mixture of one part white vinegar to ten parts
water. This will remove the haze that builds up
on the inside of the glass windows. Use a soft
cloth or paper towels to clean all glass. Clean
the seals with a damp cloth or mild detergent
every three to six months, taking care not to use
strong solvents, as they will damage the seals.
A coat of natural silicone lubricant applied after
the seal has dried will keep it flexible. This is a
good practice for all the rubber seals in your
RV. If the RV is exposed to salt air, more
frequent lubrication will be required.
OVERHEAD VENTS
The vents can be cleaned from the top of the
RV. Use soapy water on the vent cover. The
screens may be vacuumed or lightly brushed to
remove accumulation of leaves or other debris.
Lubricate the gears and mechanisms yearly
with a light, water resistant grease.
WIRING
Make sure the connector-plug prongs and
receptacles are clean. Lightly coat all electrical
terminal connections with non-conducting
(dielectric), light waterproof grease.
Clean the prongs with very fine sandpaper,
being careful not to damage the contact area.
LIGHTS, EXTERIOR
Check the operation of your RV’s exterior
lights prior to each trip. This also includes your
trailer’s lighting. A burned out bulb can create
an unsafe condition by reducing your ability to
signal your intentions to other drivers. When
replacing exterior bulbs, take care that the
sealant around the light fixture is not disturbed.
This can cause a potential
water leak.
