ure to inspect and maintain the roof, vents,
TV/satellite antenna and molding seals may
affect your warranty coverage.
The adhesives and sealants used in the construc-
tion
of
your motor home were developed to
remain waterproof under sustained effects
of
weather and vibration. However, even the finest
materials will eventually dry out and lose their
effectiveness.
~I
NOTE I
Failure
to
seal could cause serious damage and will
affect your warranty coverage.
Your dealer can perform the resealing inspection
and
~ork
for you. Your dealer also has current
information
on
sealants used in your motor
home, and can recommend the appropriate
sealants for you
if
you prefer to do this work
yourself. Always use the recommended sealants.
Door, Window, Roof Component
and
Molding Resealing
Inspect the sealants around windows, floors,
joints and doors at least every three months.
Also inspect roof vents, other roof components,
moldings at front and rear caps, and perimeter
molding.
If
any
of
the following defects are
evident during inspection, the affected areas
must be resealed.
• Sealant cracked or peeling.
•
Void
or missing sealant.
If
you find any
of
the above defects:
1.
Clean all areas to be resealed with an
appropriate cleaner and clean rags.
2. Make sure that
all
areas to be resealed are
absolutely dry before new sealant is applied.
~I
NOTE I
Do
not seal the bottom flanges
of
windows
and
doors.
Special gaps
in
the sealant have been intentionally
left
in
the bottom flange
to
provide drainage.

Interior appointments such
as
draperies, bed-
spreads, mattress covers, upholstery and wall
pads are manufactured from high quality materi-
als and should be dry cleaned only. Frequent
vacuuming will keep them free
of
dust and dirt.
Minor spills should be cleaned up quickly to
avoid staining. The affected area should be blot-
ted, not rubbed, to prevent the stain from work-
ing deeper into the fabric.
A WARNING
Do not use lacquer thinner, nail polish' remover, carbon
tetrachloride, spot remover,
gasoline, or naphtha for
any
cleaning purpose. These products may cause
damage to the
material being
Cleaned,
and may be
highly flammable or poisonous.
