Exterior Windows
The windows in your trailer are safety glass. To open: release the two lever
locks at the bottom, lift up on the two side operator handles until the window is
in the desired position, and place the operators into one of the three positioning
slots on the side of the frame. To lock the windows reverse this position Some
windows are designed as an emergency escape exits. The rubber Spline holding
the screen in place is looped so it can be pulled out in one swift motion. You
and all your family should practice escape procedures so they can be rapidly
accomplished even in total darkness.
Warning
: Never park your trailer so the escape windows
cannot be easily used for emergency exits.
Clean your trailer windows the same way you clean the windows in your
home. Clean the seals with a damp cloth or mild detergent every three to six
months, taking care not to use strong solvents, as they will damage the seals.
A coat of natural silicone lubricant applied after the seal has dried will keep
it flexible. Spread the lubricant evenly with a rag, brush, or finger, working it
into the surface. This is a good practice for all rubber seals in your trailer. For
replacement of a damaged window contact an Airstream Service Center.
CaUTiOn:
Failure to properly clean and lubricate the windows
could result in the window sticking to the jamb. Window seals that become
stuck to the window jamb should be released by a qualified technician
trained in the procedure.
DangEr:
Do not force, pry, or apply great pressure to open
the window. Failure to heed this warning may cause the window to shatter
and/or cause personal injury.
NOTICE: Your PLASTIC SCREENS are easy to maintain. Clean occasionally
with a damp cloth. Plastic screens will melt at the point of contact if touched
by a cigarette.
