clean the outside of the motorhome.
Use only suitable cleaning agents from a specialist dealer for cleaning the outside of the vehicle.

If a tunnel car wash is used to clean your vehicle, the rotating brushes can damage the
acrylic glass windows and the delicate edges of the exterior film.

Never clean the vehicle in a tunnel car wash or other automatic car wash.
14.2 Cleaning windows and roof lights
CAUTION
Risk of damage to windows and roof lights due to incorrect cleaning and/or aggressive
cleaning agents!
The windows and roof lights in your motorhome are made of acrylic. This material is
sensitive to scratching and can become brittle or matt and cracked if it is cleaned
incorrectly.
●
Never use glass cleaner, substances containing spirit or alcohol, or chemical
solvents for cleaning!
●
Never rub/wipe windows and roof lights while they are dry!

If ice has formed on windows and roof lights, do not use de-icing spray and/or
ice scrapers!

maintaining the windows and roof lights.
