Carpet
A weekly routine of vacuuming the carpet and fabrics throughout the vehicle is recommended. The
optional vacuum system has a central connection within the motorhome wherein a vacuum hose
can be connected and the necessary vacuuming performed, as desired.
Remember to empty or replace vacuum bags before they become overly full—this practice will as-
sure that sufficient vacuuming capability is readily available to handle any and all cleaning situations
that may arise. In carpet areas that receive the most sunlight, keeping the curtains closed whenever
possible will minimize fading. Also, act quickly when anything is spilled or dropped onto the carpet
to prevent or minimize staining.
To connect the cleaning hose, raise the wall remote inlet valve door and align hose end coupling with
slots on each side of intake opening. Firmly push into intake opening. Make sure hose end coupling
is connected and is locked in place. To disconnect the hose, simply push in the slots on each side of
the hose coupling and pull hose end straight out.
NOTE: The vacuum cleaner hose must be plugged into outlet to activate the vacuum motor.
To start the vacuum cleaner:
1. Lift inlet valve cover on the wall.
2. Insert the hose cuff with a twist and push. The vacuum cleaner will start automatically.
3. To remove, turn hose in either direction while pulling hose towards you.
To change the dust bag you will need to open the door on the vacuum cleaner by pushing the latch
upward and remove the door completely. Remove the full bag and discard. Next, locate the pipe
inside the vacuum chamber. Holding the new bag’s cardboard collar at approximately a 45-degree
