Drapes
Use the following procedures to remove drapery panels for cleaning
Front Wrap Around Drapes
1. Remove screws securing rear end of drapery track bracket to wall, both roadside and
curbside.
2. Remove the plastic end cap.
3. Slide draperies to the rear until they are clear of track.
4. After reinstalling drapes, replace the caps and refasten the track.
CAUTION
: All drapery materials and mattress covers must be professionally dry-cleaned.
To prevent excessive wear to drapery linings, blinds must be secured at the bottom and slats
turned vertically when driving long distances.
Bench Dinette
The dinette is hinged to the wall and is supported by one folding table leg. To make into a bed,
the front of the table is lifted slightly and the leg is then folded up against the bottom of the
tabletop. The pressurized piston will hold it into place. Raising the front of the table leaf further
allows it to be unhooked from the wall. The leaf will then swing out and down onto the support
ledges on the front of the dinette seat. The backrests are then laid on the table leaf to complete the
bed. On units with a freestanding dinette, be sure to
secure the dinette chairs to the dinette table
support using the fabric straps.
CAUTION
: Never remove cushion cover for separate cleaning or washing. Any tumble
cleaning method can destroy the backing, shrink or otherwise damage upholstery.
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.
