placed on them.
Aluminum Wheels (if so equipped)
Clean the aluminum wheels with a cleaner that is designed for use on aluminum and apply
an appropriate protection agent. Do not use abrasive cleaners. Wheels exposed to sea water
or road chemicals should be cleaned as soon as possible. Be sure to use a sponge or chamois
leather (brushes may damage the aluminum wheel surface).
™ NOTE: If your motor home is equipped with aluminum wheels, only the
outer dual wheels are aluminum, the inner duals are steel wheels.
Tires
Read and understand the following before taking your first trip in your RV.
Routine maintenance on your RV is important. To ensure your tires are operating safely,
regular inspection of the tires and checking tire pressures is absolutely mandatory.
Alignment, balance and bearing wear will affect tire wear. Make sure to look for cracking,
bulging, uneven tread wear, etc.
Tire wear should be checked frequently. Once a wear pattern becomes firmly
established in a tire it is difficult to stop, even if the underlying cause is cor-
rected.
