Rubber Roof Periodically wash the roof with soap
and water.
WARNING: Rubber roof material is slippery
when wet.
If a tear or puncture should occur, see your dealer
for the appropriate repair kit. Use only compatible
rubber roof material, adhesive, and sealant when
repairing tears or punctures.
Inspect vents and moldings yearly for tight seals.
Reseal around all roof vents, seams, and moldings
once a year, or more often if needed. When
resealing, use only compatible sealants. See your
dealer for the proper sealants, or have your dealer
perform this inspection and resealing work for you.
Interior Maintenance
Floor Coverings. Vinyl floor covering should be
cleaned with a mild detergent.
Carpeting should be vacuumed after each trip. Stains
can be removed with a good carpet type cleaner.
Paneling. The interior wall and ceiling paneling may
be cleaned with a damp cloth.
Table and Counter- Top Surfaces. The counter surfaces
are the finest high pressure laminate and will retain
their original luster indefinitely. Clean with soapy
warm water.
Upholstery. The hard wearing fabrics in your
recreational vehicle should not be washed or dry
cleaned. To remove spots or stains, use a foam type
spot remover.
Draperies. The privacy drapes are not washable and
should be dry cleaned only.
Cabinet door maintenance. Your wood cabinet door
will maintain beauty and appearance if given a
periodic cleaning. There are many products
commonly used to protect and care for a finish such
as furniture polish and lemon oils. The most
effective material is a coat of furniture wax properly
applied and buffed.
WARNING
Severe damage can occur to cabinet doors exposed
to periods of high humidity. This can occur when a
recreational vehicle is kept closed up for a long
period in wet/humid weather. Wood swells and
shrinks primarily across the grain with changes in
humidity. A 5% change in the moisture content of
the wood over a 20 inch wide oak cabinet door
will increase the dimension of the center raised
panel by 1/4". This will result in the door literally
pushing itself apart. Since this damage in not the
result of defective material or poor workmanship,
it is not covered by our standard warranty.
Winter Freeze Protection
In Use. When using your trailer in cold weather, be
sure there is adequate circulation of warm air from
the furnace around all water pipes. This can be
done by leaving the bath door and cabinet doors
open. Also, keep a ceiling vent slightly open. Even
in the coldest weather the moisture-laden interior
air will escape keeping the unit more evenly
heated and comfortable.
In Storage. Protecting the plumbing system from
freezing is one of the most important areas of
long term winter storage.
Caution: Draining the water system alone
will not provide adequate freeze protection.
A special non-toxic RV type anti-freeze
must be used in the system to give your
trailer adequate winter freeze protection.
Your dealer can supply you with an approved RV
type non-toxic anti-freeze or can winterize your
trailer for you.
