Free-Standing Table and Chairs (if so equipped)
The free-standing dinette table can be positioned to seat up to four people. To prevent dam-
age, the free-standing dinette chairs should be fastened securely at the dinette table when
traveling.
Pantry or Hutch (if so equipped)
Your recreation vehicle may have a pantry or hutch that you can use for storage. Make sure
all items stored in the pantry or hutch are secured to prevent shifting during travel. This
cabinetry has been designed to accommodate the normal camping items which may be bulky
but not necessarily heavy. Remember your recreation vehicle's load capacity is designed
by weight, not volume, so you cannot necessarily use all available space.
If your pantry or hutch has sliding pantry shelves, they have been equipped with a locking
mechanism to keep them in place during transit. To secure the shelf in place, push it all of
the way in until the latch tab clicks into place. Always pull out slightly on the shelf to make
sure that it is stationary and secure in the transit position. To release the shelf, push in on the
tab and pull the shelf slowly towards you.
Your RV's load capacity is designated by weight, not by volume, so you can-
not necessarily use all available space when loading the vehicle. Do not ex-
ceed your GVWR and ensure you are loading the vehicle as evenly as you can
for the best possible handling. Ensure heavy items are secured so they do not
shift during travel.
Countertops
To prevent permanent damage
Always use hot pads or trivets under hot pans, dishes, or heat producing appli-
ances.
Heat will damage countertops.
Use a cutting board to prevent unnecessary damage to the countertops
Avoid harsh chemicals such as drain cleaners, oven cleaners, etc.
Do not let cleaners with bleach set on the top. Wipe them off promptly.
Run cold water when pouring hot/boiling water into the sink.
Use coasters under all glasses, bottles and cans.
Do not store toiletry products directly on your countertop surface. Hair products,
perfumes, colognes, nail products, creams, lotions and potions have a tendency to
spill or leak and go overlooked. Even though the counter top is sealed, a substance
that remains on the surface for an extended period may stain the countertop.
For additional information on the removal of difficult stains or surface damage repair, refer
to the countertop manufacturer's user guide.
Laminate Countertops (if so equipped)
Glass rings, food spills, water spots and smudges usually wipe off with a damp sponge.
Stubborn stains can be removed with a general-purpose spray cleaner. Some stains can be
removed by squeezing fresh lemon juice over the stain and allowing the juice to soak for ap-
proximately forty-five minutes. After 45 minutes, sprinkle baking soda over the lemon juice
and rub with a soft cloth.
Solid Surface Countertops (if so equipped)
Soapy water, ammonia based cleaners (not window cleaners as they can leave a waxy build
up that may dull the surface) or commercially available solid surface cleaners will remove
most dirt and residue from all types of finishes. A damp cloth followed by a dry towel will
