Locks on entrance and baggage doors need
biannual lubrication using a light coat of
silicone spray. Conditions such as rain, salt,
dust and pollution may increase the
maintenance needs.

The rubber roof on your RV is manufactured
by Alpha Systems. Read and follow the OEM
operator’s manual when cleaning the rubber
roof. If you have questions, contact your

While you are cleaning the exterior roof, also
inspect the roof vents (including sealants) for
cracks and keep them clean. Inspect the
refrigerator and holding tank vents for
blockages from bird nests, spider webs,
leaves, etc. Water heater, furnace and
refrigerator exterior doors need to be kept
clean and free of obstructions (i.e., insect
nests, mud daubers, etc.) while the
appliances (if so equipped) are in use.

Your RV may be equipped with an optional
roof ladder. The RV roof has decking under
the rubber roof membrane to allow you to
walk on the roof (with caution) to do
maintenance.

Sand, pebbles, objects on the highway,
climate (salt air exposure) or ice inhibiting
chemicals used during the winter months will
damage the paint, inviting rust and other
deterioration. Periodically inspect the exterior
exposed areas, clean and repaint the steel
members occasionally and whenever you
notice rust or paint chipped away, to insure
protection.

UMPER
The rear bumper of your RV is not designed
to carry cargo. Items that extend beyond the
bumper OR weigh over 100 lbs. (45kg) will
place undo strain on the bumper. The 100 lb.
bumper capacity includes the weight of the
spare tire that may have been attached at the
factory.
Some items may fall within the given weight
range, however, can still cause damage. Over
time, weight added to the bumper will cause
damage from the motion created while
traveling. In addition, extra weight behind the
axle may reduce the hitch weight (leading to
adverse handling conditions from wind gusts
and/or passing traffic).
S
EALANTS
Do not add items to the RV rear bumper.
Add-on items will eventually damage your
bumper. Damage caused by such
aftermarket equipment installation or
improper loading voids the
Towable
Limited Warranty
.
Failure to properly maintain or reseal your
RV may result in serious water damage to
the roof and other parts of the RV. This
damage is not covered by the
Towable
Limited Warranty
.
If your RV is equipped with a roof ladder,
do not leave items attached to it while
traveling. The ladder has a weight limit of
350# when using it to access the roof. DO
NOT exceed this weight limit.
To check the exterior sidewall sealants,
use a stepladder placed safely beside the
RV. Do not prop a ladder against the body
of the RV as it may damage the finish.
