NOTE: Should scratches appear on the
acrylic windows these can often be
removed with an acrylic polish, i.e. ICI
perspex polish. Gentle polishing with a
liquid metal polish, i.e. Brasso may also
have the desired effect - consult your
retailer BEFORE attempting to remove any
but the slightest scratch.
INTERIOR WALLS
Your motorhome interior walls are finished with
a vinyl coating and will only require a wipe over
with a damp cloth, using a mild detergent, to
keep them in a ‘showroom’ condition.
FURNITURE
Treat your motorhome furniture as you would
the furniture in your home. Polish wood
surfaces sparingly with a good quality wax or
spray polish. Use a damp cloth to clean
melanate laminated surfaces.
CARPETS, UPHOLSTERY AND
CURTAINS
Vacuum clean carpets and upholstery to
ensure a long life. Marks on cushions can be
removed using a mild upholstery shampoo
with the minimum of water. Curtains - check
the manufacturers’ label for washing
instructions.
SHOWER ROOM AND WASH BASIN
FITTINGS
These should be cleaned using a non abrasive
household cleaner.
Always put the cold water into the wash hand
basin before adding the hot in order to
preserve the finish of the thermoplastic formed
basin.
WATER SYSTEMS
The water systems, and in particular storage
tanks, in motorhomes are susceptible to
contamination by bacteria if care is not taken
with their use and cleaning. The symptoms
caused by bacterial contamination are not
purely limited to gastro-intestinal diseases, but
may also manifest themselves as ear, nose,
throat, eye or skin infections. It is therefore
important that you carry out the following
procedure prior to using the motorhome each
time, even if you boil or filter all water you use
for drinking.
CONTAINERS
1. All water remaining in the container should
be disposed of so that the container is
empty. (If the container is an onboard tank,
it should be removed if possible).
2. The outside of the container should be
thoroughly cleansed and washed down to
remove any dirt, dust or other
contaminant. Water at a suitably hot
temperature containing an appropriate
detergent is recommended for this
purpose.
3. Water should be put into the container,
swirled round, then emptied out.
4. The container should then be totally filled
with water containing an appropriate
disinfectant/sterilant solution and allowed
to stand for the recommended contact
time (e.g. Milton for 15 minutes).
5. The solution should be emptied from the
container.
6. The opening of the container should be
cleaned thoroughly with an appropriate
pre-prepared wipe impregnated with a
disinfectant/ sterilant.
7. The container should be inverted whilst
stored overnight (if possible).
8. The container must be filled with mains
water only and mains water only should be
used for the above cleaning procedure.
9. On no account should garden hoses be
used to fill water tanks.
