MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

•
For stubborn stains,
use a mild abrasive
cleanser like Soft Scrub
®
, Comet
®
, etc. Work
in the direction of the “grain” of the brushed
finish lines.
•
Never use steel wool.
Particles of steel from
the wool pad can embed into the sink surface,
then become rusty and unsightly.
•
Avoid contact with full-strength
bleaches,
household chemicals, and acid-based
cleaners. If this happens, rinse and wipe dry
quickly.
•
Salt, mustard, and mayonnaise
can cause
pitting if left on the steel sink surface. If
spilled, clean and rinse immediately.
•
A high iron content
in the water (hard water)
may result in a brown or rust-colored stained
appearance. If noticed, dry towel sink after
each use.
•
Do not use rubber mats
in the sink bowl.
Material trapped under mats can complicate
cleaning.
NOTE: Improper use may damage this product
and void the warranty.
RANGE AND REFRIGERATOR
For care and appearance maintenance of the
range and refrigerator, refer to the appliance
manufacturer’s operation and maintenance
manuals included in your InfoCase.
BATHROOM
Toilet
For instructions on the care of your toilet, refer
to the information in your InfoCase.
Tub and Shower Walls
The tub and shower walls in the bathroom
should be cleaned with mild soap and warm
water. Do not use an abrasive cleaner on the
shower walls and tub, as scratching and
discoloration may occur. Stubborn stains may be
removed with an automotive-type cleanser.
Lavatory Sink - ABS Plastic
General Cleaning.
Clean often with hot water
and soap. If a cleanser is necessary, make sure the
product is recommended for use on plastics.
Avoid harsh abrasive cleaners, ammonia, or
citric-based products as discoloration may result.
Rinse all food, beverage, or cosmetic residue
from the sink as soon as possible. Some residues,
if left to sit in the sink, may require the use of
detergent or a mild liquid or gel-type kitchen
surface cleaner.
If acids or medicine spill on the surface, wash
the spills immediately.
Marks or Discoloration.
For most stubborn
stains, fill the sink about one quarter full with a
50/50 solution of bleach and water. After 10 or 15
minutes of soaking, drain solution from the sink
as you rinse both sides and bottom.
White automotive rubbing compound may be
used to remove stubborn marks or discoloration.
Always follow label directions.
NOTE: Do not use steel wool or metal scouring
pads.
DOORS AND WINDOWS
Windows may be periodically cleaned with a
good quality glass cleaner or mild soap solution
using a soft cloth.
Use care when removing ice or frost from the
windows. Always use a plastic ice scraper, never
one made of metal. Use care when removing ice
from the mirrors to protect the reflective surfaces.
Door locks and hinges should be lubricated
periodically with powdered graphite to ensure
trouble-free operation and to protect against
freeze-up.
VEHICLE STORAGE –
PREPARATION
Properly preparing your vehicle for storage
will lessen the possibility of damage to your
vehicle. Prepare the motor home for vacancy just
as you would if you were leaving your house for
an extended period.
