SECTION 11 –
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Tub and Shower Walls
The tub and shower walls in the bathroom
should be cleaned with mild soap and warm
water. Do not use an abrasive cleaner on the
shower walls and tub, as scratching and
discoloration may occur. Stubborn stains may be
removed with an automotive-type cleanser.
Lavatory Sink
Do not use abrasive cleaners, harsh
detergents, or solvents.
General Cleaning.
Rinse all food, beverage, or
cosmetic residue from the sink as soon as
possible. Some residues, if left to sit in the sink,
may require the use of detergent or a mild liquid
or gel abrasive cleaner.
Hard-to-Remove Food and Beverage
Residue.
Use an abrasive cleanser such as
Ajax
®
, Comet
®
, Bon Ami
®
or Bar Keeper's
Friend
®
to remove mild stains and for routine
cleaning. Use an abrasive pad such as Scotch-
Brite
®
to remove most of the tougher stains.
For the most stubborn stains, fill the sink
about one quarter full with a 50/50 solution of
bleach and water. After 10 or 15 minutes of
soaking, drain solution from the sink as you rinse
both sides and bottom.
NOTE: Do not use steel wool or metal scouring
pads.
Mineral-Based Stains.
Cleaners designed to
remove iron or rust should not harm the sink, nor
will solvents such as denatured alcohol, mineral
spirits, or acetone.
Marks or Discoloration.
White automotive
rubbing compound may be used to remove
stubborn marks or discoloration. Use of these
products will not damage the solid surface.
Always follow label directions.
DOORS AND WINDOWS
Windows may be periodically cleaned with a
good quality glass cleaner or mild soap solution
using a soft cloth.
Use care when removing ice or frost from the
windows. Always use a plastic ice scraper, never
one made of metal. Use care when removing ice
from the mirrors to protect the reflective surfaces.
Door locks and hinges should be lubricated
periodically with powdered graphite to ensure
trouble-free operation and to protect against
freeze-up.
VEHICLE STORAGE –
PREPARATION
Properly preparing your vehicle for storage
will lessen the possibility of damage to your
vehicle. Prepare the motor home for vacancy just
as you would if you were leaving your house for
an extended period.
Clean and Prep Coach for Storage
1. Turn off the propane gas tank.
2. Turn the furnace thermostat switch OFF.
3. Remove all foods and items that may cause
odors from cabinets and refrigerator.
4. Clean and defrost the refrigerator. Prop the
door open slightly to allow any odors to
dissipate. Place an open box of baking soda
inside the refrigerator to help absorb odors.
5.
Fully charge the batteries. Batteries must
have at least 80% charge to survive
freezing temperatures and long period of
non-use.
We recommend that you connect a
battery charger or plug in the shoreline once a
month during long-term storage periods to
maintain battery charge and to avoid
sulfating. If connecting a charger directly to
batteries, turn the House/Coach Battery
Switch off to avoid electrical arcing when
attaching and detaching charge clamps.
NOTE: We do not recommend leaving the
shoreline plugged in continuously during
storage periods because the batteries
can lose electrolytic fluids and become
damaged from continuous charging
without periodic use. We recommend
following regular battery inspection and
