Connecting Flex Hose
to Wall Socket
To operate the vacuum system, remove flex
hose from the cabinet, lift vacuum inlet hinge
cap, just under the storage cabinet, and insert
the proper end of the flex hose . At this point the
vacuum system will be operating and is used in
the same manner as any household vacuum
cleaner.
LAP BELT CARE
Clean only with mild soap solution and luke-
warm water.
Do not bleach or dye belts since this may
severely weaken them.
INTERIOR GLASS
The interior glass surface should be cleaned
on a periodic basis for continued good visibility .
A commercial household glass cleaning agent
containing ammonia will remove normal tobacco
smoke and dust films sometimes caused by in-
gredients used in vinyls, plastics, or other inte-
rior trim materials.
KITCHEN SINK
The stainless steel sink should be cleaned with
a liquid or finely ground powder. Scouring pow-
der is not recommended for stainless steel and
will ruin the finish . Stainless steel cannot be
harmed by boiling water. However, salt, mustard,
mayonaise and catsup will cause pitting and
should be cleaned off immediately .

CLEANING FABRICS
IMPORTANT : Be
sure vehicle is well ventilated
while using the following cleaning agents . Fol-
low manufacturer's recommendations in using
such products.
CLEANING FABRICS WITH
CLEANING FLUID
This type of cleaner should be used for clean-
ing stains containing grease, oil, or fats. Excess
stain should be gently scraped off trim with a
clean dull knife or scraper. Use very little
cleaner, light pressure, and clean cloths (pre-
ferably cheesecloth) . Cleaning action with cloth
should be from outside of stain towards center
and constantly changing to a clean section of
cloth. When stain is cleaned from fabric, im-
mediately wipe area briskly with a clean ab-
sorbent towel or cheesecloth to help dry area and
prevent a cleaning ring. If ring forms, immedi-
ately clean entire area or panel section of the
trim assembly .
NOTE:
Sometimes a difficult spot may require
a second application of cleaning fluid followed
immediately by a soft brush to completely re-
move the spot.
CLEANING FABRICS WITH
DETERGENT FOAM CLEANERS
This type of cleaner is excellent for cleaning
general soilage from fabrics and for cleaning a
panel section where a minor cleaning ring may
be left from spot cleaning. Vacuum area to re-
move excess loose dirt. Always clean at least a
full trim panel or section of trim. Mask adjacent
trim along stitch or weld lines. Mix detergent
type foam cleaners in strict accordance with
directions on label of container. Use foam only
on a clean sponge or soft bristle brush-Do not
wet fabric excessively or rub harshly with brush.
Wipe clean with a slightly damp absorbent towel
or cloth. Immediately after cleaning fabric, dry
fabric with a dry towel or hair dryer. Rewipe
fabric with dry absorbent towel or cloth to
restore the luster of the trim and to eliminate
any dried residue.
REMOVAL OF SPECIFIC STAINS
CANDY-Chocolate, use cloth soaked in luke-
warm water ; other than chocolate, use very hot
water. Dry if necessary, clean lightly with fabric
cleaning fluid.
