Pet stains:
•
Treat with lukewarm water. If stain remains
visible, clean with a soft nylon pad and non-
abrasive resilient floor cleaner.
BATHROOM
Toilet
For instructions on the care of your toilet, refer
to the information in your InfoCase.
Tub and Shower Walls
The tub and shower walls in the bathroom
should be cleaned with mild soap and warm
water. Do not use an abrasive cleaner on the
shower walls and tub, as scratching and
discoloration may occur. Stubborn stains may be
removed with an automotive-type cleanser.
Lavatory Sink
(Model 59G)
The lavatory sink is made of the same material
as the galley sink. See Galley Sink - Care and
Cleaning Instructions.
(Model 59K)
The sink in the bathroom should be cleaned
with mild soap and warm water. Do not use an
abrasive cleaner on the sink, as scratching and
discoloration may occur. Stubborn stains may be
removed with an automotive-type cleanser.
DOORS AND WINDOWS
Windows may be periodically cleaned with a
good quality glass cleaner or mild soap solution
using a soft cloth. Using chemicals, solvents, or
abrasive cleaners on acrylic windows could
damage the window surface.
For Acrylic Windows:
For Glass Windows:
Use care when
removing ice or frost from the windows. Always
use a plastic ice scraper, never one made of
metal.
Use care when removing ice from the mirrors
to protect the reflective surfaces.
Door locks and hinges should be lubricated
periodically with powdered graphite to ensure
trouble-free operation and to protect against
freeze-up.
VEHICLE STORAGE –
PREPARATION
Properly preparing your vehicle for storage
will lessen the possibility of damage to your
vehicle. Prepare the motorhome for vacancy just
as you would if you were leaving your house for
an extended period.
Clean and Prep Motorhome for
Storage
1. Turn off the propane gas tank.
2. Turn the furnace thermostat switch OFF.
3.
Remove all foods and items that may cause
odors from cabinets and refrigerator.
4. Clean and defrost the refrigerator. Prop the
door open slightly to allow any odors to
dissipate. Place an open box of baking soda
inside the refrigerator to help absorb odors.
5.
Fully charge the batteries. Batteries must
have at least 80% charge to survive
freezing temperatures and long period of
non-use.
We recommend that you connect a
battery charger or plug in the shoreline once a
month during long-term storage periods to
maintain battery charge and to avoid
sulfating. If connecting a charger directly to
batteries, turn the House/Coach Battery
Disconnect switch off to avoid electrical
arcing when attaching and detaching charge
clamps.
NOTE: We do not recommend leaving the
shoreline plugged in continuously during
storage.
NOTICE
Do not use an ice scraper on acrylic
windows. Damage to the windows may
occur.
