system
Cleaning
Your new motor home is equipped with a new
roof material called TPO (thermoplastic ole-
fin) or fiberglass. For normal cleaning, stan -
dard household detergents or cleansers may be
used . Use a nonabrasive, common household
non-scented dishwashing detergent and plenty
of water . Be sure to keep the sidewalls wet to
reduce streaking .
Care
The TPO or fiberglass roof material itself does
not require annual coatings or additional sealants .
Periodic washing with soap and water is all that
is required . (See below for Sealant Inspection)
The TPO roof material can be cut by sharp
objects . Use caution when loading sharp articles
on the roof . If you add accessories or new equip-
ment on the roof, be sure the installer is quali-
fied to work on the TPO roof material. This is
required under the terms of the warranty .
Repair kits are available through your dealer .
The roof requires special adhesives and mate-
rial . Do not use silicone sealants .
Door, Window, Roof Component
and Molding Resealing
Inspect the sealants around windows, floors,
joints and doors at least every three months .

moldings at front and rear caps, and perimeter
molding . If any of the following defects are
evident during inspection, the affected areas
must be resealed .
• Sealant cracked or peeling.
• Void or missing sealant.
If you find any of the above defects:
1 . Clean all areas to be resealed with an
appropriate cleaner and clean rags .
2 . Make sure that all areas to be resealed are
absolutely dry before new sealant is applied .
