Care
The rubber roof itself does not require annual coatings or
additional sealants. Periodic washing with soap and
water is all that is required.
The rubber roof material can be cut by sharp objects. Use
caution when loading sharp articles on the rool.lf you add
accessories or new equipment on the roof, be sure the
installer is qualified to work on the rubber roof material.
This is required under the terms of the warranty.
Repair kits are available through your dealer. The roof
requires special adhesives and material.
WARNING
RUBBER ROOF MATERIAL IS SLIPPERY
WHEN WET.
Sealant Renewal
The adhesives and sealants used in the construction of
your motor home were developed to remain waterproof
under sustained effects of weather and vibration'. How-
ever, even the finest materials will eventually dry out and
lose their effectiveness under constant heat of the sun
. and attack by other elements. This section outlines the
procedures you mustfollowto maintain the weatherproof
integrity of your motor home.
NOTE: Failure to seal could cause serious damage
and will affect your warranty coverage.
Your dealer can perform the resealing inspection and
work·for you. Your dealer also has current information on
sealants used in your motor home, and can recommend
the appropriate sealants for you if you prefer to do this
work yourself. Always use the recommended sealants.
Door, Window, Roof Component
And Molding Resealing
.
Inspect the sealants around windo\{l/s and doors at least
every t.hree months. Alsoinspect roofvents, other roof
components, moldings at front and rear caps, and perim-
eter molding.
If
any of the following defects are evident
during inspection, the affected areas must be resealed.
Excessive amount of sealant protruding from
jOints.
Sealant cracked or peeling.
Voids in sealant.
NOTE: Do not seal the bottom flanges of win-
dows and doors. Sealant voids have been inten·
tionally left in the bottom flange to provide exte·
rior drainage in the event of leakage.
If you find any of the above defects:
1. Use a plastic scraper to remove excess sealant.
2. Clean all areas to be resealed with mineral spirits

mattress covers, upholstery and wall pads are manufac-
tured from high quality synthetic materials and should be
dry cleaned only. Frequent vacuuming will keep them free
of dust and dirt. Minor spills should be cleaned up quickly
to avoid staining. The affected area should be blotted, not
rubbed, to prevent the stain from working deeper into the
fabric.

ISH REMOVER, CARBON TETRACHLORIDE,
SPOT REMOVER, GASOLINE, OR NAPHTHA
