Allegro Bay Owner's Manual - Tiffin Motorhomes

INTERIOR FEATURESBedspreadAs a furnished part of the bedroom suite (Figure 10-1), a bedspread and matching pillow accessories areincluded in a décor compatible with the rest of the motorhome. Other bedlinens (e.g., sheets, blankets, pillows,pillowcases) are the sole responsibility of the motor-homeowner and are to be provided by that owner.For the bedspread and pillow shams, cleaning instructionsare “for dry-cleaning only,” as the bedspread was madewith materials treated for stain resistance; proper drycleaningwill prolong the life of these materials.Minimizing exposure to unnecessary sunlight will prolongand preserve the richness of the colors of the fabrics; so itis advisable to keep the shades closed on the “sunny side”of the motor home, whether parked or in transit.Figure 10-1. Typical BedspreadFlooringThe living room and bedroom floor areas (Figure 10-2) are carpeted with filament-nylon carpeting treated withScotchgard, a stain-resistant coating. In the Owner’sInformation Package, there is additional literature from themanufacturer concerning the specifics of caring for the carpetingwhich, if followed, will prolong the appearance and life of thecarpeting.Figure 10-2. Typical Flooring (Carpeting and Tile)Please become familiar with the recommended care and cleaningof the carpeting to assure its prolonged life.Laminate flooring is standard in the kitchen and bathroom areasof the motor home. For routine cleaning, vacuuming the flooror using a dust mop on it would normally be sufficient.If more thorough cleaning is warranted, the flooring can bewiped with a damp cloth. Spills can be wiped up with a cloth. In any sandy or “gritty” areas, sweep or vacuumregularly to avoid undue scratching of the laminate surface.Do not use any “soap-based” detergents or “mop and shine” products as these would leave a dull film on thefloor. Do not use any abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or scouring powders as these will degrade the floor surface.Do not wax or polish your floor.Laminate flooring, when wet, may constitute a slipping hazard; so be careful when washing the floor and allowsufficient time for it to dry before having people walk over its surface. Immediately wipe up any spills or watertracked in by “wet feet” to prevent any slipping on the floor.10-2
