14 - CARE & MAINTENANCE
The bathroom lavatory is also a molded com-
posite material and should be cleaned with a mild
soap and water solution. Abrasive cleaners or
harsh detergents should not be used. The bath-
room lavatory cabinet sink is made of the same
composite material as the galley sink. Do not use
abrasive cleaners, harsh detergents or solvents.
Refer to the Galley Sink - Care and Cleaning In-
structions.
For instructions on the care of your toilet, refer
to the information in your Owner InfoCase.
DOORS AND WINDOWS
Windows may be periodically cleaned with a
good quality glass cleaner or mild soap solution
using a soft cloth. Use care when removing ice or
frost from the windows. Always use a plastic ice
scraper, never one made of metal. Use care when
removing ice from the mirrors to protect the re-
flective surfaces.
Door locks and hinges should be lubricated
periodically with powdered graphite to ensure
trouble-free operation and to protect against
freeze-up.
DAY/NIGHTER BLINDS
Tension Adjustment:
The tension of the pleated blinds can be ad-
justed if they become loose and will not stay up
when raised, or they are too tight and are difficult
to raise and lower.
To tighten the tension, simply wrap the lower
end of the guide cords (on each side of the shade)
a few turns around the spools at the lower corners
of the blinds.
To loosen the tension, unwrap the guide cords
from the spools one turn at a time until desired
tension is achieved.
Preserving Shape:
The pleated blinds are made using high quali-
ty materials that are designed and woven to retain
their shape throughout their useful life. They may
lose their crisp shape, however, if left in a low-
ered position for an extended period of time with-
out being raised periodically. If this happens, the
pleats can be restored using this simple method.
• With the blind fully lowered, dampen the en-
tire area of the pleats with a good quality
laundry sizing spray.
• Raise the blind fully while still damp and let
it remain in the raised position for about 24
hours, until the sizing has dried and “set”.
• Reapply sizing periodically (every few
months) as needed.
