with a minimum amount of maintenance.
This section is provided to familiarize you with the areas of your
motor home that require scheduled care. A few minutes spent
taking care of your motor home on a regular basis will pay for
itself in more pleasurable outings and will protect your
investment.

Information Kit describes in detail maintenance operations
required by the truck chassis manufacturer. Please consult this

INTERIOR CLEANING
DRAPERIES. CUSHIONS AND UPHOLSTERY FABRICS
The furniture and decor of your motor home uses materials and
fabrics, often synthetics, which require only the simplest care.
1. Print and Plain Fabric:
Clean this fabric with pure solvents (petroleum distillate-
based products, Energine, Carbona, Renuzit, or similar
products may be used) in a well-ventilated room. Cleaning
by a professional furniture cleaning service only is
recommended. CAUTION: Use of water-based or detergent-
based solvent cleaners may cause excessive shrinking.
Water stains may become permanent and unable to be
removed with solvent cleaning agents. Avoid products
containing Carbon Tetrachloride as it is highly toxic. To
prevent overall soil, frequent vacuuming or light brushing to
remove dust and grime is recommended.
2. Vinyl:
Vinyl upholstery is made to withstand scuffing, cracking,
peeling and hard use. It will come up fresh and sparkling
after a mild soap and water cleaning followed by a clear
water rinse. However. certain stains if allowed to remain rnay
become set and make removal more difficult. IT IS
IMPORTANT TO REMOVE THESE STAINS IMMEDIATELY.
