wire brush or other abrasive substances to remove dirt
and corrosion from the wheel covers . To maintain the
original appearance of the wheel covers the following

reinstalling
wheel covers (prior
to
operating the

sponge, cloth or soft
fiber brush to wash
the exposed wheel
surfaces with a mild
d e t e r g e n t /w a r m
water solution .
• Rinse thoroughly with
clean water .
• Wipe dry to avoid
water spots .
• Use a high quality,
non-abrasive polish to
remove stubborn road
tars, insects or hard to
remove deposits .
• To protect the surface appearance on wheel covers,
wax the cleaned surface with a high quality car
wax .
• Clean the wheel covers frequently to maintain
appearance .
WHEELS — POLISHED ALUMINUM
Outside:
The outward side of the aluminum wheel is a polished
finish and should be treated the same as the paint
finish on the motorhome . Road soils, grime and brake
dust trap moisture which can cause corrosion over a
period of time .
1 . Frequently clean using high-pressure water .
2 . Wash with a 100% cotton cloth and a mild
soap solution (dish soap or car wash soap is
recommended) .
3 . Rinse all remaining soap residue with high-pressure
water and wipe the surface dry using a 100%
cotton cloth to avoid water spots .
4 . A secondary hand washing may be required to
remove some stubborn road films .
5 . Carnauba wax can be applied to help protect the
finish .
Do not use the following items on polished aluminum
wheels:
• Synthetic cleaning pads, wire or abrasive brushes,
steel wool or scouring pads (these can mar or
scratch the finish) .
• Strong detergents, alkaline or acidic cleaners, acids
or lye-based chemical products or solvents .
Inside:
If the tires are removed, inspect and clean the entire
rim . Air used to fill the tire may contain moisture and
can cause the areas of the wheel under the tire to
severely corrode .
Use a soft brush to remove foreign material from the
tire side of the rim . Lubricate the rim and tire bead with
a non-water-based lubricant before mounting the tire
and ensure the inside of tire is dry before installing .

CAUTION:
Rinse aluminum wheels using high-pressure water
to remove debris from the surface before washing .
Do not scrub . Rubbing debris against the surface
of the wheel can result in scratches . Do not allow
soap solution to dry on the finish of the wheel as
spotting will occur .
WARNING:
Do not use a flammable solution to coat the inside
of the rim . This can lead to an explosion during
tire inflation or in subsequent operation of the
motorhome .
NOTE:
Allow heated wheels that are extremely hot to cool
before spraying with cold water .
