NOTICE
Cosmetic adjustments and alignments must be performed within the first three months
from date of original purchase for warranty consideration. Thereafter, these items are con-
sidered routine maintenance.
Monthly
• Check the water levels of the batteries.
Every Three Months
• Check LP gas lines for leaks with soap solution or leak detector.
• Clean the microwave hood exhaust fan filter and blades.
• Test smoke alarm and carbon monoxide/LP gas detector.
• Check operation of windows, latches, and hinges.
• Clean the roof ducted air conditioner filter or filters.
• Clean and inspect door and window seals; reseal where necessary.
• Inspect and reseal around the tub and shower area where necessary.
• Lubricate the exterior door hinges and latches with a graphite (silicone) lubricant.
• Check, clean, and tighten battery cables and inspect batteries for proper fluid levels.
Every Six Months
• Inspect the slide-out for proper seal. If realignment is necessary, please contact an
authorized Tiffin Motorhomes Service Center.
• Inspect the exterior rubber slide-out seals and apply an UV inhibitor, such as 303 Pro
tectant.
• Change the battery in the smoke detector.
• Rotate tires as recommended by the tire manufacturer.
• Check all gas appliances for proper operation.
• Have the LP system inspected by a qualified technician.
• Lubricate the movable parts on the entrance step.
• Change the batteries in both the smoke detector.
• For the optional washer/dryer, inspect the water hoses (both the hot and cold supply lines)
to note any bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks. Especially note the hot-water hose, as this
tends to degrade faster than the cold-water hose. Replace if hose feels “soft” or “spongy.”
Annually
• Inspection of roof seams and joints should be performed by an authorized Motorhomes
Service Center. If resealing is necessary, it is the owner’s responsibility and is not covered by
the Tiffin Motorhomes Limited Warranty.
• Sanitize the fresh water system.
• Wax and buff all gel-coat surfaces on the vehicle as described previously in this chapter.
