EXTRUSIONS AND ALUMINUM SURFACES
Clean and wax all extrusions when waxing the RV sidewalls, to help avoid surface pitting. Special aluminum
cleaners are available to restore the original luster to aluminum surfaces. Make sure to follow the instructions
for use as outlined on the product package. Chrome surfaces can be restored with special chrome polish if
regular cleaning methods are not successful. Again, make sure to follow product instructions for use.
WINDOWS AND DOORS
Check the seals around windows at regular intervals. Follow previous instructions for checking the condition of
seals and repairing as necessary. Make sure that the windows remain operative by adjusting and lubricating
latches and moving parts annually. Also check the condition and operation of the door locks, adjusting and
lubricating as necessary. Use powdered graphite or light oil to lubricate moving parts on doors and windows.
Vinyl seals around windows and doors should be cleaned regularly, and kept supple by use of a silicone spray.
Keep screens and window slides clean and free of debris, to maintain proper operation, and avoid component
road damage. Test the operation of all windows occasionally to make sure they are working properly, including
closing flush and locks holding tight. Check with your dealer if you are unsure about the correct methods of
lubrication and adjustment.
NOTE: Be aware that moisture can accumulate in locks and hinges of windows and doors, causing damage or
faulty operation. Do not force the operation of these components in sub-freezing weather.
CAUTION: Failure to maintain seals through regular maintenance can lead to damage of
your motorhome components, and may be considered abusive treatment under the terms
of your RV warranty.
FRAME
Check the condition of the frame regularly. Keep it clean, and repaint as necessary to help avoid rust. It is
especially important to keep underbody components clean, when driving the recreational vehicle in the winter
in areas where road salts are used.
TIRES
In areas where hot sun constantly beats down on the recreational vehicle, shading the tires by covering can
reduce tire sidewall cracks from forming.
