If your roof should somehow be punctured, cover the puncture to seal out moisture, and
have it repaired as soon as possible (check with your dealer).
The membranes used on the roof may have an extended warranty that is covered by the
membrane manufacturer. This is for manufacturing defects only and does not include
leaks or punctures due to improper sealing, normal wear and tear, or owner damage.
See membrane manufacturer’s warranty for details.
Check roof vents regularly for debris that may block air flow or jam the cranking
mechanism. Lubricate the cranking mechanism with light oil.
It is important to maintain the seals and adhesives of your recreational vehicle to prevent
moisture from entering and destroying the components. When washing your recreational
vehicle, inspect the seals for signs of drying out, cracking and wear. You should inspect
and reseal, if necessary, every six months.
Check seals around doors, windows, vents and external seams. If a seal is cracked or
dried out, it should be replaced to prevent leakage.
Check roof seals every six months to see if they are cracked or peeling.
Check engine covers and firewall every six months to see if they are cracked or
peeled.
Be aware that weather, sun, and road vibration will affect seals, causing them to dry,
crack, or separate. If you are unsure what to look for, have your dealer instruct you, and
also show you the correct method for renewing the seals. If you prefer, they will be able
to perform seal maintenance for your convenience.
The exterior of your motorhome is made of pre-finished aluminum and fiberglass. Wash
it frequently with a mild soap and soft rag in lukewarm water. If you travel roads that
have been salted for ice, wash your motorhome as soon as possible. The most common
causes of corrosion are accumulation of road salt, dirt, and moisture in hard to reach
areas under the motorhome. Make sure you wash the undercarriage and wheel wells
as well as the exterior of the motorhome. A good automotive cleaner should be used
occasionally to remove tree sap, road tar, insects and industrial pollution that may
damage surfaces. Do not use naphtha or turpentine. We recommend that you wash
your motorhome about every three weeks.
Your motorhome may be equipped with a slide-out room for added space and comfort.
Proper care and maintenance is required to achieve the maximum performance. Follow
the guidelines listed below for your slide-out.
It may be necessary to lubricate the slide assembly (rollers, slide tubes, lever assembly)
once a month with light oil to prevent rust buildup. This may be required more frequently
due to road spray (salt, sand, dirt, etc.).
If you park your unit for long periods of time, run the room in and out 2–3 times to keep
