INDOWS
Any ventilating window may permit water inside, especially during heavy
rainstorms. Condensation will also cause water to accumulate on windows and in
the tracks. The window “glass” can normally be cleaned with a sponge and water.
Use glass cleaner to remove wax, oil, grease, dead insects, etc. After washing the
glass, wipe it dry with a clean, soft cloth.

Refer to your Chassis Guide for detailed safety and maintenance instructions.

RAME
Sand, pebbles, objects on the highway, climate (salt air exposure) or ice inhibiting
chemicals used during the winter months will damage the paint, inviting rust and
other deterioration. Periodically inspect the exterior exposed areas, clean and
repaint the frame members occasionally and whenever you notice rust or paint
chipped away, to insure protection.

While you are cleaning the exterior roof, also inspect the roof vents (including
sealants) for cracks and keep them clean. Inspect the refrigerator and holding tank
vents for blockages from bird nests, spider webs, leaves, etc.
Water heater, furnace and refrigerator exterior doors need to be kept clean and
free of obstructions (i.e., insect nests, mud daubers, etc.) while the appliances (if
so equipped) are in use.
S
EALANTS
Sealants perform a very important function and should be inspected closely and
regularly maintained. We incorporate many different types of sealants, including
butyl/putty, black butyl-encapsulated foam, silicone (clear and colored), roof
sealant and foam. In general, sealants do not have "set" lifetimes. Varying
environmental factors affect the pliability and adhesiveness of sealants. You or
your dealer must:
Inspect all sealants, a minimum of every six months. A quick walk around the
motor home before leaving may help prevent potential problems during trips
and vacations.
Have the sealant replaced if you notice any cracks, voids, gaps, breaks,
looseness or any sign of physical deterioration.
Always use the same type of sealant that was removed. Your dealer service
or parts manager can help you obtain the correct sealant(s).
The sealants may become damaged due to ultraviolet exposure, air pollution,
freezing temperatures and exposure to other elements. If deteriorated, repair
immediately to prevent damage.
Cap seal all trim and openings at least once after the first year and thereafter as
cracks, peeling, lifting and shrinkage occur. Conditions such as rain, salt, dust
and
pollution may increase your vehicle maintenance needs.
