Preventing Heat Damage:
Hot pans and heat-generating appliances, such
as frying pans or crockpots, can damage the
surface. To prevent heat damage, always use a
hot pad or a trivet with rubber feet to protect the
surface.
Other Important Tips:
Avoid exposing the solid surface to chemicals
such as paint removers or oven cleaners. If
these chemicals come in contact with the Solid
Surface, quickly wash with water. Avoid contact
with nail polish or nail polish remover. If contact
is made, quickly wash with water.
NOTE
DO NOT cut directly on the solid
surface. When pouring boiling water
into the Solid Surface sink, run the cold
water faucet to dilute the excess heat.
Laminate
Clean laminate countertops with a damp
cloth or sponge. Use a spray cleaner to remove
stubborn stains. Avoid using harsh abrasives,
scouring powders, peroxides or bleaches as these
products may dull or damage the surface. Avoid
contact with dyes, bleaches and indelible inks
used on food packages.
DO NOT use laminated
countertops as a cutting board. Laminated
countertops are resistant to minor heat; however,
hot pans, irons and lit cigarettes damage the
surface. Use hot pads under pans taken directly
from the stovetop.
NOTE
DO NOT cut directly on the laminate
surface.
StaInleSS Steel SUrfaceS
Clean stainless steel once a week with a damp
sponge. Apply stainless steel cleaner/polish
with the grain, not across, using a non-abrasive
cloth or sponge.
DO NOT use steel wool, wire
brushes or abrasive sponge pads. These will
mar the finish. Cleaner containing chloride is
not recommended; however, if used, thoroughly
rinse the surface to prevent corrosion. To avoid
water spots, DO NOT allow water to evaporate
on the surface.
NOTE
DO NOT cut directly on the stainless
steel surface.

Water Spots:
Glass will develop water spots when not
properly cleaned. Water spots are magnified on
a reflective finish. Use a squeegee immediately
after washing to reduce water spotting. To
remove stubborn water stains from reflective
glass we recommend Cerium Oxide Polishing
Compound
, made by C.R. Lawrence, available
at most glass shops.
Condensation
Condensation occurs from water vapor present
in the air. More vapor is added by breathing,
bathing, cooking, etc. collects wherever there
is available air space. When the temperature
reaches the dew point, the water vapor in the air
condenses and changes to liquid form.
Controlling Moisture Condensation:
Reduce or eliminate interior moisture
condensation during cold weather by using the
following steps:
Partially open the roof vents and
windows so that outside air can circulate
into the interior. Increase the ventilation
when large numbers of people are in the
motorhome. Even in raining or snowing
conditions the air outside will be far drier
than interior air.
Install a dehumidifier. Continuous use of
a dehumidifier is effective in removing
excess moisture from interior air. Using
a dehumidifier is not a cure-all, however,
it will reduce the amount of outside air
needed for ventilation.
Run the range vent fan when cooking
and the bath vent fan (or open the bath
vent) when bathing, to reduce water
vapor. Avoid excessive boiling or use of
steam producing hot water.
DO NOT heat the motorhome interior
with the range or oven. Heating with the
range or oven increases the risk of toxic
fumes and depletes oxygen. Open flames
also add moisture to the interior air and
increase condensation.
In very cold weather, leave cabinet and
closet doors partially open. Air flow will
warm and ventilate the interior storage
compartments and exterior walls to
reduce or eliminate condensation and
prevent the possibility of ice formations.
