12 2027 Zephyr Interior Features
FLOORING:
Porcelain ceramic tile (Figure 12-1) is standard throughout the motorhome with the exception of the slide-out rooms, which may have Infinity Woven Flooring (Figure 12-2).
For routine cleaning, sweeping or vacuuming the floor should be sufficient. If more thorough cleaning is warranted, the flooring can be cleaned with a damp mop and water.
For more stubborn stains, a mixture of soap-free household cleaner (e.g., vinegar, ammonia, or comparable products) and water can be used. Do not saturate the floor surfaces with water, as this could damage the flooring substrate. Do not use any abrasives (cleansers, scouring pads, and the like) as they can scratch or mar the flooring surfaces and might cause damage to the flooring.
SAFE:
The Zephyr contains a safe (Figure 12-3). This safe can be used to hold valuables, important documents, and other items you might want to protect during your travels. The safe is located in the rear bedroom closet.
REAR FIREPLACE:
To operate the rear fireplace (Figure 12-4), Fireplace Enabled must have a green light on the Slides tab. The slide box containing the fireplace must be fully extended to operate the fireplace.
NOTE: If the fireplace is on and the slide containing the fireplace is retracted even for a second, the fireplace will deactivate, and Fireplace Enabled will cease to have a green light on the Slides tab. To return the functionality of the fireplace, fully extend the slide-out, and turn the fireplace back on.
NOTE: The fireplace will not automatically turn back on if the slide is moved. Once Fireplace Enabled has a green light, the fireplace must be turned back on for operation.
HEATED TILE FLOOR:
The Zephyr might be equipped with a heated tile floor. The heated tile floor does not heat the air but gently warms the surrounding surfaces and occupants, allowing for a lower thermostat setting than traditional heating methods while providing the same comfort level. Peak floor temperature is 25-30 degrees above ambient floor temperature. The Spyder Controls System (Figure 12-5) regulates the floor temperature by means of a control sensor built into the floor, thus ensuring that the temperature sensed by the controller and the owner are the same. The optional heated tile floor provides clean, quiet heat, with no blowers or transformers, and it creates no hum or noise. The thermostat makes a quiet clicking as it switches on. For further operating instructions, refer to the manufacturer’s literature in the Tiffin Knowledge Base Owner’s Hub.
CEILING:
The ceiling (Figure 12-6) in the motorhome is covered with a padded-vinyl headliner, which can be easily cleaned with a damp, soft cloth, and a mild detergent. Clean around all vent areas to prevent any build-up of dirt, grease, or other accumulations.
WINDOW TREATMENTS:
Throughout the Zephyr, the window treatments consist of two shades—solar and blackout (Figure 12-7). The solar shade enables one to see out during the daytime, motorhome. The blackout shade creates complete privacy for night-time. The shades are located on all the windows in the living area and the bedroom, as well as in the cockpit. The shades can be controlled by using the Spyder Window Shade Controls (Figure 12-8).
MULTIPLEX LIGHTING CONTROL:
The multiplex system (Figure 12-9) enables you to control circuits from multiple locations in the coach. Each switch enables you to turn a circuit ON or OFF with individual button presses and provides an indicator light to determine the status of the circuit (ON or OFF). Many of the circuits are also dimmable by holding the button to dim. Additional features of the multiplex system include the following:
• Master Feature (this is only on the control panel located at the entrance door) — Enables you to turn all lighting circuits ON or OFF by pressing a single button labeled Light Master. Pressing the Light Master OFF switch will turn off all the interior lights within the coach. Pressing the Light Master ON switch will turn on the same circuits that were on when the Light Master OFF switch was pressed. All Light Master OFF remembers that were on when the switch was pressed will turn back on when the Light Master ON switch is pressed again. Holding the Light Master ON switch will turn on all interior light circuits.
• Switch Panel Backlighting — All of the switches are backlit to make the labels easy to read. If you desire to turn the panel lights off, a switch is conveniently located at the center of the coach labeled Panel Lights, which enables you to turn the back lighting ON, OFF, or DIM.
• Status LED Indicator — A green LED beside each switch indicates whether the load is on or off. In some cases, certain switches such as Awnings, Compartment Locks, and Generator do not have a status indicator at the switch.
• Dimming Circuits — Certain circuits within the coach are dimmable. To dim a light down, hold the OFF switch until the light is at the desired level, and release the switch. This setting will be remembered the next time the circuit is turned ON. To adjust the light up, hold the ON switch until the light is at the desired level, and release the switch.
