EXTERIOR LIGHTS

Most Winnebago Industries
polycarbonate lenses on exterior lamps, which
are very sensitive to a variety of chemical
solvents and cleaners.
Use only soap and water to clean exterior
lamp lenses, especially headlights.
• Contact with certain chemicals can cause
etching, "crazing" or cracking of the lens,
which can significantly reduce the lens clarity
and effectiveness of the lamp and may require
replacement of the complete lamp housing.

• Some popular citric acid cleaners may cause
polycarbonate lenses to become "hazy" or
"foggy".
• Do not use a pressure washer to clean
headlights.
• Inspect and operate the lights regularly to
confirm proper operation and mounting
condition.

INTERIOR SOFT GOODS

We recommend a weekly routine of
vacuuming all fabrics and carpet throughout the
motorhome to prevent an accumulation of dirt,
which can detract from the appearance and
shorten the life of carpet and fabrics.
Fabric Upholstery
Some fabrics used in this motorhome may
contain fire retardant and lightfastness additives,
which can be damaged by use of improper
cleaning products. Some water-based household
cleaning products are not formulated for use on
fabrics and may cause excessive shrinkage or
fading. Always test any cleaning product on a
hidden area of fabric before using on visible
areas. For best results, fabric cleaning should be
referred to a professional carpet and upholstery
cleaner.
NOTE: To minimize fading of upholstery, carpets
and other interior fabrics caused by
excessive sunlight, the drapes, blinds, or
shades should be closed when the
motorhome is parked for an extended
period of time.
