WARNING
When cleaning upholstery and fabric, do
not use lacquer thinner, nail polish
remover, laundry soaps, or bleach. Never
use carbon tetrachloride, gasoline, or
naptha for any cleaning purpose. These
materials may cause damage to the
material being cleaned and most are
highly flammable.
Vinyl Fabrics (including ceiling)
Vinyl should be cleaned with a soft, damp
cloth, and a mild detergent only. Do not use
solvents. Solvents may damage the surface of the
vinyl.
Draperies, Curtains and
Bedspreads
These items may be woven from a variety of
fabrics. We recommend that these be
professionally dry cleaned only. A five percent
shrinkage may occur when you have these items
dry cleaned.
General Stains
As with any stain or contamination, the quick
response is the best, especially when done in
conjunction with the proper cleaner for the type
of stain.

CABINETRY

Wooden items may be cleaned with a soft
cloth and a good quality wood finish cleaning
product.
Vinyl simulated wood panels may be cleaned
with a mild, water based cleaner and a soft cloth.
Do not use solvents on vinyl wood panels.
NOTE: Many cabinetry and furniture items
throughout this motor home are
constructed either partially or completely
of real hardwoods. Because of natural
variations in woodgrain density, slight
MAINTENANCE & STORAGE
differences in stain hue may exist
between one item and another. This is the
distinctive character and beauty of real
wood.

VINYL WALLBOARD

Decorative vinyl covered wallboards may be
cleaned with a mild solution of water and
isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol or a mild soap
solution. Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning
products.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF
YOUR SOLID SURFACE
COUNTERTOP
You can easily maintain the beauty of your
countertop with little effort, under most
circumstances, using a window spray cleaner,
warm soapy water or other general purpose spray
cleaner. You can also use liquid or gel-type
cleaners containing bleach. Because the material
is nonporous, stains cannot penetrate below the
surface and will nearly always disappear using
these cleaning methods.
If a stain has dried on, allow the cleaner or
soapy water time to soften the area, after which
the stain will wipe off.
If the stain is not water-base or oil-base
material, you may need to gently remove it using
a plastic scraper (disposable plastic knife for
example) followed by normal cleaning methods
described above.
You may want to scrub the entire surface
periodically. Do this lightly and evenly with a
mild abrasive powdered or liquid cleaner.
Always use a cutting board rather than
slicing foods directly on your countertop. The
underside of one of your sink covers will provide
an easily accessible cutting surface. This will
keep your countertop looking its best and
minimize care efforts. (An occasionally sanding
with a medium grade (120 grit) sandpaper will
remove any cut marks accumulated on the sink
cover bottom).
