and scrub the entire roof. Rinse thoroughly with clean water to avoid residue buildup

on the roof or sidewall of the unit.

For more dicult stains contact your Damon dealer for the correct heavy duty

cleansers. Do not use general-purpose cleaners containing petroleum solvents, harsh

abrasives, or citric based cleaners.

If your roof should somehow be punctured, cover the puncture to seal out moisture, and

have it repaired as soon as possible (check with your dealer).

The membranes used on the roof may have an extended warranty that is covered by the

membrane manufacturer. This is for manufacturing defects only and does not include

leaks or punctures due to improper sealing, normal wear and tear, or owner damage. See

membrane manufacturer’s warranty for details.

Check roof vents regularly for debris that may block air ow or jam the cranking

mechanism. Lubricate the cranking mechanism with light oil.

It is important to maintain the seals and adhesives of your recreational vehicle to prevent

moisture from entering and destroying the components. When washing your recreational

vehicle, inspect the seals for signs of drying out, cracking and wear. You should inspect

and reseal, if necessary, every six months.

Check seals around doors, windows, vents and external seams. If a seal is cracked or dried

out, it should be replaced to prevent leakage.

Check roof seals every six months to see if they are cracked or peeling.

Check engine covers and rewall every six months to see if they are cracked or peeled.

Be aware that weather, sun, and road vibration will aect seals, causing them to dry,

crack, or separate. If you are unsure what to look for, have your dealer instruct you, and

also show you the correct method for renewing the seals. If you prefer, they will be able

to perform seal maintenance for your convenience.

The exterior of your motorhome is made of pre-nished aluminum and berglass. Wash it

frequently with a mild soap and soft rag in lukewarm water. If you travel roads that have

been salted for ice, wash your motorhome as soon as possible. The most common causes

of corrosion are accumulation of road salt, dirt, and moisture in hard to reach areas under

the motorhome. Make sure you wash the undercarriage and wheel wells as well as the

exterior of the motorhome. A good automotive cleaner should be used occasionally to

remove tree sap, road tar, insects and industrial pollution that may damage surfaces. Do

not use naphtha or turpentine. We recommend that you wash your motorhome about

every three weeks.

Your motorhome may be equipped with a slide-out room for added space and comfort.

Proper care and maintenance is required to achieve the maximum performance. Follow

the guidelines listed below for your slide-out.

It may be necessary to lubricate the slide assembly (rollers, slide tubes, lever assembly)

once a month with light oil to prevent rust buildup. This may be required more frequently

due to road spray (salt, sand, dirt, etc.).

If you park your unit for long periods of time, run the room in and out 2–3 times to keep

the moving parts lubricated and the seals moving more freely.

Keep the slide room away from tree branches. Visually inspect the room and awning

before retracting. Branches rubbing against the room while retracting could cause

damage to the seals.
