AVIARA OWNERS MANUAL / 220
This situation is worsened if the boat is stored without proper
ventilation or if the boat cover is put on while the vinyl is still
wet, creating a situation in which all forms of fungi (mold and
mildew) thrive. Failure to follow these instructions in the proper
care of upholstery may cause your warranty to be voided!
The cleaning table presented in this section is offered only as a
suggestion and as an aid in attempting to deal with stains. We
do not guarantee that the cleaning methods will work. Stains
from any external source are unlikely to be covered by warranty.
Additional Upholstery Cleaning Information
The following information refers to the performance of the
upholstery product in specific tests conducted under laboratory
conditions. Results may vary under actual conditions. This
information is not a guarantee and does not relieve the user
from the responsibility of the proper and safe use of the product
and all cleaning agents. The use of certain agents can be harmful
to the surface appearance
and lifespan of the vinyl. The vinyl manufacturer and Aviara
assume no responsibility resulting from the use of such cleaning
agents to the vinyl. Please check compatibility when using this
product in combination with painted or varnished surfaces.
* Always remove stains immediately. Upholstery must be kept
CLEAN AND DRY! All cleaning methods must be followed by a
thorough rinse with clean, warm water. Failure to care for your
vinyl properly, or the use of improper cleaners, may void your
warranty, as well as damage your vinyl.
Certain household cleaners, powdered abrasives, steel wool,
and solvent cleaners can cause damage and discoloration and
are not recommended. Dry cleaning fluids and lacquer solvents
should not be used because they will remove printed pattern
and gloss. Waxes should be used with caution because many
contain dyes or solvents that can permanently damage the
protective coating.
Do not clean with power washers as they can generate 3,500
P.S.I. and could damage the surface of your interior. Do not
use kerosene, gasoline or acetone, because they will remove
the protective marine top coat. Do not use any silicone based
protectants. They will extract the plasticizer, leaving vinyl hard
and brittle, and eventually cracking will occur.
Vinyl upholstery should be covered when not in use to protect
from further sun exposure, tree debris, air pollutants and acid rain.
For storage, vinyl should be cleaned, protected, covered and
stored in a dry, well ventilated area.
