12. Maintenance and Care 187
12.4 Airing
For a comfortable climate inside the van, there must be suf-
ficient ventilation. This also avoids corrosive damage due to
condensation.
Ensure that there is a sufficient exchange of air to avoid
damages due to the build-up of condensation!
To ensure the ideal air exchange, open all of the cupboard
and wall cabinet doors when airing and reheating the van.
Condensation is caused by
- insufficient volume inside the van
- breathing and perspiration of the passengers
- bringing in damp clothing
- operating a gas cooker
12.5 Care
Use only dishwashing liquid or commercial cleaning agents,
always taking care to follow the instructions for use, and
test the cleaning agent to make sure it is suitable.
The following applies for their care:
• Clean plastic parts (e.g. fenders, skirts) with water of up to
60° C and mild household cleansers.
• Clean greasy or oily surfaces with spirits.
Cleaning products not recommended for use
- abrasive cleaning agents (scratch the surface)
- cleaning agents that contain acetone
(immediately damage the plastic)
- dry cleaning products
- diluents
Wash the vehicle only in places provided for this purpose.
Using cleaning materials sparingly. Aggressive cleansers,
such as wheel rim cleaners, damage the environment.
If several bulbs have to be replaced, take care to ensure
that they are not accidentally switched and that everything
goes back in its original place.
Before changing bulbs, disconnect the power supply in the
van and switch the ignition off.
Bulbs can be hot!
Ensure that no liquids (e.g. rain) run into the covers.
