MAINTENANCE
Your motor home has been designed to provide you with
many years of use with a minimum amount
of
maintenance.
This section will familiarize you with the areas
of
your
motor home that require scheduled care. Time spent taking
care
of
your motor home on a regular basis will pay for itself
in extended service and will protect your investment.
If
you are mechanically inclined and regularly perform rou-
tine maintenance and repairs on your car or truck, you may
want to do the mechanical work on your motor home your-
self.
If
you prefer, your dealer can perform these services for
you. His trained personnel will assure that your motor home
is maintained and repaired in keeping with original perfor-
mance expectations.
This section is intended to provide the owner and operator
with a general overview
of
service and maintenance informa-
tion for the motor home. Detailed service and maintenance
information may be found in the owner's/operator's manuals
contained in the
Owner's Information Package.
While the information in this section is intended to establish
proper maintenance and inspection procedures, there may be
times when detailed diagnostic and repair procedures may be
required. Consult your dealer or an authorized Fleetwood
Service Center in these situations.
Some exterior parts
of
your motor home are made
of
fiber-
glass. The finish on these parts is durable, but not indestruc-
tible. Any material and finish will deteriorate in time.
Exposure to sunlight, moisture and airborne pollutants can
cause dulling and fading
of
the finish. Generally, changes in
the finish due to weathering are cosmetic
- they are on the
surface
of
the part and do not affect its strength. Weathering
can take the form
of
chalking, fading and yellowing.
