CARE & MAINTENANCE
Periodic maintenance and cleaning of the motorhome is necessary to retain the dependability,
safety, and appearance that will provide you with many miles of trouble free operation, as well
as protecting your investment.
Make sure to read and follow all the maintenance tips and schedules that appear in this
manual. Keep accurate records of maintenance functions performed, and perform all owner
obligations as may be required by the chassis manufacturer to keep the warranty in force.
It is also important to note that operating conditions will affect service timetables. Driving in
extreme conditions such as heavy dust, continuous short trips, or start and stop heavy traffic
means that service durations will be shortened. Discuss service timetables with both your
dealer and chassis service representative. Preventative maintenance will pay for itself many
times over by catching or preventing problems before they occur. Many repair costs are
greatly increased due to the fact a small problem can begin to affect other parts and systems
of the motorhome if left unattended.
If a situation arises involving maintenance or a cleaning activity for which you are not sure of
the proper procedure, do not hesitate to contact your dealer, or chassis service representative
for information.
EXTERIOR PAINT
The exterior painted finish on the motorhome is of the finest quality. Proper maintenance will
assure a long lasting durable finish.
NOTE: Do not wax or polish the exterior for the first 60 days.
Pressure Washing
Take care to avoid spraying water directly into refrigerator and furnace vents when
washing the motorhome.
Extreme caution should be used when using a pressure washer to wash the motorhome, as
severe damage to the paint could result. The tip of the pressure washer should never be
adjusted to a "pin point" type spray. A fan type spray which disburses the water over a larger
area should be used. Also, if the pressure is adjustable set it to the lowest setting. The spray
tip should remain approximately 30" away from the surface of the motorhome to ensure safe
cleaning.
