General Care
Cleaning code W: Clean only with water based
shampoo or non solvent upholstery cleaner.
Disclaimer
Impala fabric resists most household stains.
Whilst Impala fabric is resistent to and
drastically reduces household stains it comes
in contact with, it may not be resistent to all
liquids, chemicals or other materials whether
containing toxic substances or otherwise and
in particular the fabric is not resistent to
bleaches, acids or other liquids or materials
containing destructive or toxic substances. We
therefore cannot accept any responsibilty for
misuse of Impala fabric by allowing such
liquids, materials or substances coming into
contact with it.
Spills and stains
Always deal with stains immediately. In the first
instance remove excess with a soft absorbent
cloth or white paper tissue. Cleaning
instructions will vary according to the type of
fabric you have selected.
Creasing
All fabrics are likely to crease, particularly on
the arms and cushions. This is not a fault, but a
natural feature, and will not affect the fabric’s
wearing qualities.
We strongly advise against washing any fabric,
if in doubt, consult professional cleaning
specialists.
Heat and light
Never leave your furniture in direct contact with
or too close to a heat source, e.g. a space
heater. Avoid standing the furniture
permanently in direct sunlight as the fabric
colour may fade.
CARPET
Any proprietary carpet cleaner may be used,
but it is recommended that you do not use
excessive amounts of water.
VINYL FLOOR COVERING
Proper care of your floor prevents damage,
extends its life and keeps it looking new for
years.
Always vacuum or dust hard floor surfaces
before mopping. Vinyl floors generally require
only warm water for cleaning
FURNITURE
Use a damp cloth to remove finger marks,
etc. or an all-purpose spray cleaner or a
good quality furniture oil or abrasive
cleaners.
It is recommended that cupboard catches,
stays, sliding bolts and hinges are kept
clean and lightly oiled or smeared with
petroleum jelly.
SECURITY
PROTECTING YOUR HOLIDAY HOME AND
POSSESSIONS
Windows and doors
Always close and lock windows and doors
when leaving your holiday home, even if only
for a few minutes. Consider fitting additional
locks wherever necessary; ask your park/
distributor/dealer for details on security locks.
It is very important, however, that any
additional locks fitted to designated escape
routes (i.e. door(s) and windows) are
immobilised during occupation so that your
escape remains unhindered.
Gas Cylinders
Keep them chained together and fastened to
the substructure of your holiday home. Always
use a good quality padlock.
Lights and alarms
Many devices, both battery powered and
electrical, are available to the DIY enthusiast. A
light inside your holiday home at night suggests
it is occupied. Electricity triggered to turn on
as darkness falls or battery operated with a
time switch, the light will help deter thieves.
Ask your park/distributor/dealer for details on
electrical intruder alarms.
Marking your property with your postcode and
house number would help the police identify
