INTERIOR
The interior of all Airstream trailers has been designed for flexibility, 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.
The lounge and curtain fabric should be cleaned regularly before substances such as
dirt, roof particles, etc. are allowed to accumulate on and become embedded in the
fabric. The fabric can be cleaned without being removed from the installation. Simply
brush off any loose dirt, roof particles, etc.; hose down and clean with a mild solution
of mild soap in lukewarm water (no more than 100 degrees F). Rinse thoroughly to
E
remove soap. DO NOT USE DETERGENTS. Allow to air dry.
For more stubborn cases: Soak the fabric for approximately twenty minutes in a solu-
tion of no more than 1/2 cup (4 oz.) of a non-chlorine bleach and 1/4 cup (2 oz.) mild
soap per gallon of water at approximately 100 degrees F. Rinse thoroughly in cold
water to remove all of the soap. Note: Excessive soaking in non-chlorine bleach can
deteriorate sewing threads. This method of cleaning may remove part of the water
repellency and the fabric should receive an application of an air-curing fluorocarbon
water repellent treatment, such as 303 Hi Tech Fabric Guard, if water repellency is a
factor.
How Can You Get Service? Call the dealer or retailer from whom you purchased the

WARNING
: Keep your furniture and family safe from fires caused by
careless smoking. Do not smoke when drowsy. Remove immediately any flowing
ash or a lighted cigarette, which falls on furniture. Smoldering smoking material
can cause upholstered furniture fires.
Interior Skin
The interior aluminum skin is the same metal as used on the exterior of the trailer and
should be cared for and maintained using the same instructions.
Rubber Floor
The rubber floor in your unit can be cleaned with mild soap and warm water.
Counter Area
The counter areas around the sink are of a high-pressure laminate and can be cleaned
with soap and water, or you can use a common solvent on tough spots. Be sure no
abrasive cleaner is used, as there is the possibility it could scratch the surface. A
protective pad should always be placed under hot utensils.
Sinks
Cleaning can be accomplished using mild liquid detergent with a soft cloth. A com-
plete Home Owners Guide for your sinks is supplied in your Owner's Folder. Please
read these instructions before use.
