WINDOWS
Any ventilating window may permit water inside, especially during heavy rainstorms.
Condensation will also cause water to accumulate on windows and in the tracks.
The window “glass” can normally be cleaned with a sponge and water. Use glass cleaner
to remove wax, oil, grease, dead insects, etc. After washing the glass, wipe it dry with a
clean, soft cloth.
ROOF LADDER (IF SO EQUIPPED)
Your recreation vehicle may be equipped with an optional roof ladder. The recreation
vehicle roof has decking under the rubber roof membrane to allow you to walk on the roof
(with caution) to do maintenance.
DOCKING LIGHT & UTILITY LIGHT
A white LED docking light is located at the front cap above the hitch. This light is
operated with a weatherproof rocker switch mounted next to the fifth wheel hitch. There is
also a utility light located under the front cap. It is operated by a rocker switch attached to
the light.
SEALANTS
Sealants perform a very important function and should be inspected closely and regularly
maintained. We incorporate many different types of sealants, including butyl/putty, black
butyl-encapsulated foam, silicone (clear and colored), roof sealant and foam. In general,
sealants do not have "set" lifetimes. Varying environmental factors affect the pliability
and adhesiveness of sealants.
You or your dealer must:
Inspect all sealants, a minimum of every six months. Make sure to check the roof and
all four sides of the recreation vehicle including al moldings, doors, vents and exterior
attachments. A quick walk around the recreation vehicle before leaving may help
prevent potential problems during trips and vacations.
Have the sealant replaced if you notice any cracks, peeling, voids, gaps, breaks,
looseness or any sign of physical deterioration. Reseal at least one time each year as
preventative maintenance.
