SECTION 11 -
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
Lacquer and nail polish:
•
Remove as soon as possible. Do not allow to
dry. If necessary, apply nail polish thinner
(sparingly) to remove any residue.
Corrosion, paint, and grass stains:
•
Treat as soon as possible with a soft nylon pad
and non-abrasive mild detergent or resilient
floor cleaner.
Varnish, oil paint, and solvents:
•
Blot up as soon as possible. Do not rub, as this
will only spread material further across the
surface. Carefully treat with a mild cleanser.
When dry, carefully peel the stain off.
MEK may be used sparingly, if necessary.
Rinse immediately with clean water.
Pet stains:
•
Treat with lukewarm water. If stain remains
visible, clean with a soft nylon pad and non-
abrasive resilient floor cleaner.
BATHROOM
Toilet
For instructions on the care of your toilet, refer
to the information in your InfoCase.
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
The lavatory sink is made of the same material
as the galley sink. See Galley Sink - Care and
Cleaning Instructions.
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 motorhome 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 electronic 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
Disconnect 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.
6. After charging batteries, turn the House/
Coach Battery and Chassis Battery
Disconnect switches off to disconnect the
batteries and avoid parasitic* drain.
