INTERIOR
The interior skin is coated aluminum sheeting. It is important to remove oil, grease and
dirt as soon as possible after they appear by washing. Oil, grease, dust and dirt may be
removed by washing with any mild non-abrasive soap or detergent. Cleaning should
be followed by a thorough clean water rinse. Drying the skin with a chamois or a soft
cloth may prevent spots and streaks.
ALWAYS WIPE “WITH” THE GRAIN OF THE METAL.
If a substance is found on the coating that cannot be removed by normal washing pro-
cedures, Airstream recommends using DX 330 Acryli-Clean made by PPG Industries.
Follow all directions and warnings on the product container. Acryli-Clean should be
used by trained personnel only, using the proper equipment under controlled condi-
tions. Use the Acryli-Clean as sparingly as possible in a well ventilated area.
CAUTION: ABRASIVE POLISHES OR CLEANING SOLVENTS SUCH AS AUTOMATIC
DISHWASHER OR ACID ETCH CLEANERS ARE TOO STRONG AND SHOULD NEVER
BE USED. RINSE ALL GRIT FROM SURFACE PRIOR TO WASHING. Use soft rags or
wash mitts always moving lengthwise with the trailer. NEVER rub hard on the coating.
Even the softest rag can damage the coating if excessive pressure is applied.
CARPET
The carpet can be cleaned with any good commercial carpet cleaner, or with a deter-
gent and water. BE CAREFUL NOT TO SOAK THE CARPET WITH WATER. Vacuum
as needed.
GALLEY SINK
The stainless steel galley sink can be cleaned with a commercial stainless steel cleaner
available at most stores.
FREE STANDING DINETTE
Your unit may be equipped with a freestanding dinette. The dinette tabletop pulls away
from the wall on a slide and a leaf is provided to extend the top. Hold on to the end
of the table and give it a slight tug to release the top from its wall catches. Once free
from its catches, the table can be extended into its full length. The chairs have straps
to stabilize them during travel and can be folded for travel
VINYL CEILING
Damp wiping with mild detergent does routine cleaning. Using any of the automotive
cleaners designed for vinyl car seats and dashes can perform more thorough clean-
ing.
LAVATORY SINK
The lavatory sink is made from borosilicate glass and is highly resistant to stains and
corrosives.
Clean the surface with mild soap and warm water. Wipe the entire surface completely
dry with a clean soft cloth. If the surface becomes excessively dirty, you can use a non-
abrasive cleaning compound recommended for either glass or tile (such as Windex,
ammonia and water, vinegar and water, etc.). Follow the rinsing instructions carefully.
