General Information and Cleaning

The interior of all Airstream trailers has been designed
for comfort, convenience, durability, and appearance�
How you use it and how you take care of it, naturally,
depends on you� However, if you learn to operate
the interior components, and take care of them and
the trailer properly, this knowledge will add to your
pleasure, as well as the long life of your trailer�

Upholstery

Airstream recommends all fabric materials be
professionally dry-cleaned�
Keep your furniture and family safe from fires
caused by careless smoking. Do not smoke when
drowsy. Remove immediately any glowing ash
or a lighted cigarette that falls onto furniture.
Smoldering smoking material can cause
upholstered furniture fires.

Ultra Leather

Clean Ultra leather fabrics with standard products used
for that purpose� Follow instructions on the cleaning
product container�
NOTE
Never remove cushion covers for separate
dry cleaning or washing. Any tumble cleaning
method can destroy the backing, and/or shrink or
otherwise damage upholstery fabric.

Interior Aluminum Skin

Interior aluminum skin can be cleaned by washing with
any mild non-abrasive soap or detergent� Cleaning
should be followed by a thorough clean water rinse�
Drying the unit with a chamois or a soft cloth may
prevent spots and streaks� Do not use abrasive
cleaners or utensils on the aluminum skin as it is
coated with a clear coat that could be damaged�
Airstream recommends using Pledge® All-Purpose
Cleaner to clean interior surfaces including the
aluminum skin�
NOTE
When washing or polishing your trailer, always
wipe with the grain of the metal.

WARNING

Draperies

Remove the draperies by unsnapping them from the
wall, removing a screw or pop rivet from the end of the
curtain track, and sliding them out� The pop rivets are
removed by drilling through the head with a 1/8 in� drill
bit�
NOTE
All drapery materials and mattress covers must be
professionally dry-cleaned.

Vinyl Covering

Damp-wiping with mild detergent will suffice for routine
cleaning� The use of any automotive cleaners designed
for vinyl car seats and dashes can provide a more
thorough cleaning�

Interior Woodwork

The finish on the interior woodwork is a high quality
furniture finish and should be treated as any fine
furniture finish. Use a high quality furniture cleaner
which does NOT contain ammonia or bleach� One good
choice is Murphy Oil Soap Clean and Shine�

Counter Area

The counter tops are made of a high-pressure laminate
and can be cleaned with soap and water, or you can
use a common solvent on tough spots� Do not use
abrasive cleaners since they could scratch the surface�
A protective pad should always be used under hot
utensils or pans�

Sinks

Cleaning can be accomplished using a mild liquid
detergent on a soft cloth� A complete homeowners'
guide for your sinks is supplied in your owner's packet�
Please read these instructions before use�

Vinyl Flooring

General Cleaning

Use a soft broom to sweep the floor. A vacuum cleaner
may damage the flooring, especially the type that use
beater bars� In most cases, a clean damp cloth or mop
will suffice to clean dirty flooring. When necessary, a
solution of mild detergent or domestic floor cleaning
emulsion can be used to clean the flooring. Do not use
a wire brush or nylon scouring pads, furniture polish,
spirit-based polish, powder or liquid abrasive cleaners,
or bleach or other strong detergents� Scuffs, dirt, and
spillages should be cleaned up as soon as possible�
