hidden area of fabric before using on visible
areas. For best results, fabric cleaning should be
referred to a professional carpet and upholstery
cleaner.
NOTE: To minimize fading of upholstery, carpets
and other interior fabrics caused by
excessive sunlight, the drapes, blinds, or
shades should be closed when the motor
home is parked for an extended period of
time.
Ultraleather
TM
Leather-Like Upholstery
–If Equipped
Ultraleather
synthetic leather fabric material
has the luxurious look and feel of the finest
European calfskin, with the durability and
resistance to soils and stains of vinyl fabrics. It is
also tougher than real calfskin and has superior
resistance to punctures, snags, and rips.
For most soils and stains, the fabric
manufacturer recommends spot treatment with a
solution of water and Tide
®
brand laundry
detergent or equivalent. More stubborn stains
may be treated with a water-based multipurpose
cleaner/degreaser such as Simple Green
®
or
equivalent. Solvent cleaners such as nail polish
remover or other aromatic solvents are not
recommended.
Care Instructions
•
Spot clean with mild soap and water.
•
Air dry or, if desired, dry quickly using a hair
dryer on warm setting - not hot.
•
For stubborn stains, use cleaner-degreaser.
Vinyl Fabrics (including ceiling)
–If Equipped
Vinyl should be cleaned with a soft, damp
cloth, and a mild detergent only. Do not use
solvents. Solvents may damage the surface of the
vinyl.
Draperies, Curtains and
Bedspreads
These items may be woven from a variety of
fabrics. We recommend that these be
professionally dry cleaned only. A five percent
shrinkage may occur when you have these items
dry cleaned.
TILE AND GROUT CARE
–If Equipped
For tile and grout soiled with grease, grime,
or soap scum, use a neutral pH, everyday-type
stone and tile cleaner formulated for use on
natural stone, ceramic tile, and grout.
A concentrated tile and grout cleaner may be
needed to clean stubborn soils and stains in grout.
WARNING
When cleaning upholstery and fabric, do
not use lacquer thinner, nail polish
remover, laundry soaps, or bleach. Never
use carbon tetrachloride, gasoline, or
naphthalene for any cleaning purpose.
These materials may cause damage to
the material being cleaned and most are
highly flammable.
