LAP BELT CARE
* Clean only with mild soap solution and luke-
warm water.
* Do not bleach or dye belts since this may
severely weaken belts.
INTERIOR GLASS
The interior glass surface should be cleaned on a
periodic basis for continued good visibility . A com-
mercial household glass cleaning agent containing
ammonia will remove normal tobacco smoke and
dust films sometimes caused by ingredients used in
vinyls, plastics, or other interior trim materials.
KITCHEN SINK
The stainless steel sink should be cleaned with a
liquid or finely ground powder . Scouring powder is
not recommended for stainless steel and will ruin the
finish . Stainless steel cannot be harmed by boiling
water. However, salt, mustard, mayonnaise and cat-
sup will cause pitting and should be cleaned off im-
mediately.
DRAPERY CARE
The draperies used in the GMC MotorHome are
to be DRY CLEANED ONLY .
CLEANING FABRICS
IMPORTANT: Be sure vehicle is well ventilated
while using the following cleaning agents . Fol-
low manufacturer's recommendations in using
such products .
CAUTION : Many cleaners may be toxic or
flammable, and their improper use may
cause personal injury or may cause damage
to theinterior. Therefore, when cleaning the
interior, do not use volatile cleaning sol-
vents such as: acetone, lacquer thinners,
enamel reducers, nail polish removers; or
such cleaning materials as laundry soaps,
bleaches or reducing agents (exceptas noted
in the adjacent fabric cleaning instructions
on stain removal). Never use carbon tetra-
chloride, gasoline or naphtha for any clean-
ing purpose.
CLEANING FABRICS WITH CLEANING
FLUID
GM Fabric Cleaner (Solvent Type) is excellent
for spot cleaning stains containing grease, oil or fats
from fabric type trim . Excess stain should be gently
scraped off trim material with a clean DULL knife
or scraper. USE VERY LITTLE CLEANER, light
pressure, and clean cloths (preferably cheese cloth) .
Cleaning action should be from outside of stain
FEATHERING towards center of stain and con-
stantly changing to a clean section of cloth. When
stain is cleaned from fabric, immediately dry area
with an air hose, heat dryer or heat lamp to help
prevent a cleaning ring (use caution with heat dryer
or heat lamp to prevent damage to fabric material).
If a ring forms, immediately repeat the cleaning op-
eration over a slightly larger area with special em-
phasis on FEATHERING towards center of area. If
ring still persists, mark off adjacent trim sections and
clean entire affected trim panel section with GM
Multi-Purpose Powdered Cleaner as described in the
following:
CLEANING FABRICS WITH DETERGENT
FOAM CLEANERS
GM Multi-Purpose Powdered Cleaner is excel-
lent for this type cleaning and for cleaning a panel
section where a minor cleaning ring may be left from
spot cleaning .
Vacuum area thoroughly to remove excess loose
dirt . ALWAYS clean a full trim assembly or complete
trim section-mask adjacent trim along stitch or
welt lines. Mix Multi-Purpose Powdered Cleaner in
strict accordance with directions on label of con-
tainer-mix proportionally for smaller quantities .
USE STUDS ONLY ON A CLEAN SPONGE or SOFT BRISTLE
BRUSH-DO NOT WET FABRIC EXCESSIVELY OR RUB
HARSHLY WITH BRUSH. IMMEDIATELY AFTER CLEAN-
ING WIPE OFF ANY CLEANER RESIDUE WITH SLIGHTLY
DAMP ABSORBENT TOWEL OR CLOTH.
IMPORTANT: -Immediately after wiping, force-
dry fabric with air hose, heat dryer or heat lamp .
(Use caution with heat dryer or heat lamp to
prevent damage to fabric).
When trim materials with a sheen or luster finish
are dry, wipe fabric lightly with a soft, dry clean
cloth to restore sheen or luster .
REMOVAL OF SPECIFIC STAINS

warm water; other than chocolate, use very hot wa-
ter. Dry if necessary, clean lightly with fabric
