GENERAL CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Keeping a clean, well-maintained trailer will result in many years of camping fun. Following the

units. A poorly maintained unit can result in the voiding of the warranty, as will negligence, misuse or the
installation of equipment not authorized by Winnebago Towables. Become familiar with the information
