The weather strips must be coated with Vaseline once a
year to retain their softness and so provide a proper seal.
NOTE! Do not flush water through the ventilation grilles
when washing the caravan. Use the protective covers.
The lacquer should not be waxed until at least
6 months after delivery.
Cleaning the windows
The windows is sensitive to fluids containing alcohol.
These fluids makes that the windows can be fragile and
cause cracks on the pane and the frame.
This means that the windows must not be washed using
solvents/degreasing agent e.g. denatured alcohol, thinner
or acetone.
The windows may only be washed with approved clea-
ning products. Seitz Acrylic Cleaner is recommended for
washing windows.
Never wash the windows with high-pressure
wash or solvents/degreasing agent, e.g.
denatured alcohol, thinner or acetone. Seitz
Acrylic Cleaner is recommended for washing
windows.
High-pressure washing is not allowed.
1. Rinse off the windows with plenty of water to
remove dust and other loose dirt.
2. Wash using a clean sponge and warm water with
Seitz Acrylic Cleaner which is recommended for
washing the windows. Never use dirty cloths or
sponges.
Never wipe a dirty window with a dry cloth,
as the dirt can then easily scratch the glass
Body
3. Then rinse with clean water and wipe dry using e.g.
a chamois leather.
If the windows are still dirty or slightly scratched, see
also "Polishing windows".
Polishing windows
Small scratches or other surface defects can be removed
with manual polishing. For polishing can for ex. Seitz
Acrylic Polish bee used.
In the event of deeper scratches, the window must be mach-
ine-polished. An expert must be hired to perform this work.

Ventilation system

An LPG system requires good ventilation. The ventila-
tion system in the caravan is designed in such a way that
there is sufficient access to air even if the door, windows
and roof hatches are closed.
The location of the ventilation openings can be seen from
the "Ventilation openings" diagram in the document
folder that is supplied with the caravan.
The air enters through openings in the floor by the radia-
tors. The used air passes out through the ventilators and
the hatches in the roof, ensuring good ventilation even
when the roof hatches are closed.
Before using the caravan, ensure that the fresh air intakes,
roof hatches, skylights and ventlators are completely free
from snow and other things that can obstruct the circulation.
Combustion gases from the refrigerator are routed out
through a special vent.
The ventilation system has been designed in accordance
with the Swedish National Inspectorate of Explosives and
Flammables' instruction regarding combustion apparatus
and ventilation systems in caravans.
Consider the following with regard to ventilation:
Roof hatches and ventilators are designed so that
ventilation increases with greater headwinds.
When the caravan is used, dirt and dust collect in
the ventilation openings. These must therefore be
cleaned at least once a year in order for the ventila-
tion to function properly.
Fresh air intakes and vents may not be
blocked under any circumstances.
Do not perform any modifications or actions
in the ventilation system.
