Lubricate all door hinges, locks and latches, especially the exposed hinges on exterior doors. These will freeze up and cause damage to the doors if
neglected.
Have appliances tested and cleaned.
Wax and polish and protect exterior surfaces. The wheels are coated aluminum and there is no bare aluminum on the vehicle, so do not use aluminum
polish on any surface of your Roadtrek.
To prevent water from entering your vehicle, avoid spraying water directly into exterior vents or grills. Do not use a power washer to clean your Roadtrek
because damage to the paint, removal of decals and water leaks will result. Hand washing or commercial car washes accommodating large vehicles are the best
way to keep your Roadtrek clean and shiny.
Other Maintenance Checks
Follow the maintenance for your appliances as per the appliance’s manufacturer's manual.
