Shower Curtain and Liner
The shower curtain is made of a cotton or cotton/polyester material and should be dry cleaned. The
shower curtain liner should be cleaned as you would clean your own shower curtain liner at home.
Furniture
To clean the sofa, dinette, J-Steel and/or chair cushion covers, frequently vacuum or lightly brush
to remove dust and dirt. Vinyl can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
The furniture fabrics are treated with a salt-based chemical making them fire retardant. All items
treated with this chemical should be professionally dry cleaned. Spot cleaning is not recommended
as the water may leave spots on the fabric.
Cushions
#
CAUTION: Do not dry clean vinyl components. Do not remove covers for dry cleaning.
If the cushions are dry cleaned, the vinyl on the reverse side of the cushion will shrink, become
hard and crack. Vacuum the fabric and wipe the vinyl surfaces. The fabric side can be gently steam
cleaned on the cushions or mats, if necessary.
All dinette and bed mat covers are treated with stain protector. Vacuum the cover with a brush
attachment periodically to remove dirt.
Paneling
The wall paneling in your new Jayco is a vinyl covered panel. If deep scratches occur, putty sticks
can be used to cover scratches on wood surfaces. These can be obtained from hardware stores and
lumber yards. For decor paneling, replacement vinyl covering can be purchased if repairs are
needed. Contact your dealer's parts department.
To clean, use a mild solution of soap and lukewarm water with a soft sponge or cloth. DO NOT use
abrasive cleaners. It may cause the vinyl to scratch and become dull. Grease spots and stubborn dirt
can be cleaned with an all-purpose spray cleaner. DO NOT use cleaners that contain bleach.
Vinyl Floor
To care for the vinyl floor covering, use a damp mop with water and a mild cleaner. DO NOT
SOAK THE FLOORING. Use care to avoid wetting the carpet edges.
