Window Catches and Stays

Turn catch arm to the vertical position to open. A night vent position is available by locking the catch into
the outer catchplate slot.
The windows are held open by an adjuster knob, tightening off the knob in a clockwise direction will
hold the window open in the desired position.
Always ensure knob is unscrewed before closing the window. Failure to do so may cause damage to
the window stay arm.
▲ Always ensure that windows are fully closed during wet weather and not on night vent
setting.

Interior

Wax polish may be used on furniture.
The interior walls have a PVC lining which should not require cleaning too often. A wipe over with a
damp cloth and a very mild detergent is all that is needed to keep it immaculate.
5.1.4

Mattresses

Mattresses are made from fire retardant fabric and are C.M.H.R. foam filled.
Cotton print cushion covers are removable for dry cleaning only. (Zips along back edge.)
It is recommended that mattresses be stored on edge during winter.
5.1.5

Care of your upholstery

In the manufacturing of the fabrics used on the soft furnishings of your caravan a silicone coating is
applied to help resist dirt and liquids.
However if a liquid is spilt the following actions are required:
● Remove as much excess as possible with a dry clean cloth.
● Sponge the affected area with warm soapy water taking care not to soak the material.
● Leave to dry in normal conditions.
These actions will not affect the FR treatment of the fabric.
Heavy soiling will require professional cleaning.
5.1.6

Curtains

All fabrics will fade to some degree if exposed to direct sunlight, particularly natural fibres such as
cotton etc.
▲ Curtains should not be left closed during daytime otherwise some fading will be experienced.
Dry cleaning only recommended.
▲ No Ethylene based cleaning material must be used.
