Sizing Guide

To ensure the best fit for your RV, accurately measure its length, width, and height. Refer to the table below for recommended cover sizes. This specific manual is for the 24'1''-27' model.

Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to properly install your VIGORVAN RV Cover:

1. Prepare the RV: Ensure your RV is clean and dry. Remove any sharp objects or protrusions that could potentially damage the cover. Consider using the included pearl cotton gutter protectors on sharp edges.
2. Unpack the Cover: Lay the cover out on a flat, clear surface near your RV. Identify the front and rear of the cover (the front typically has the VIGORVAN logo).
3. Drape the Cover: Carefully drape the cover over your RV, starting from the front and working towards the back. It is recommended to have two people for this step to prevent the cover from dragging on the ground or catching wind.
4. Adjust for Fit: Position the cover so it is centered and evenly distributed over the RV. The elasticized hem corners will help provide a snug fit.
5. Secure Bottom Straps: Use the included toss sticks to guide the bottom buckle straps underneath the RV. Connect and tighten these straps to secure the cover from below.
6. Fasten Front and Rear Straps: Utilize the 4 front and back straps, along with the 2 extra rooftop straps, to further secure the cover and prevent wind lift. Adjust the 4 adjustable front and rear tension panels for a custom, tight fit.
7. Install Tire and Jack Covers: Place the 4 tire covers over your RV's tires and the tongue jack cover over the tongue jack for additional protection.
8. Gutter Spout Covers: Install the 8 gutter spout covers to prevent water accumulation and potential damage.

Operating and Usage

The VIGORVAN RV Cover is designed for ease of use and long-term protection.

• Accessing the RV: The cover features two roll-able zippered doors on the right side. Unzip these doors to access your RV's main entrance or engine compartment without needing to remove the entire cover. Secure the rolled-up door with the integrated Velcro straps.
• Ventilation: The integrated air vents are designed to allow air circulation, reducing moisture and preventing mold and mildew buildup under the cover. Ensure these vents are not obstructed.
• Nighttime Visibility: Reflective panels are incorporated into the cover's design to enhance visibility, especially when parked in low-light conditions or at night.
• Seasonal Protection: This cover is suitable for all seasons, offering protection against sun, UV rays, rain, snow, wind, dust, and other environmental factors.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life of your RV cover:

• Cleaning: Clean the cover periodically with mild soap and water. Use a soft brush or sponge. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow it to air dry completely before folding or storing. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Repairs: For minor tears or punctures, use the included adhesive repair patches. Ensure the area is clean and dry before applying the patch firmly.
• Storage: When not in use, fold the cover neatly and store it in the provided storage bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and pests.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the cover for any signs of wear, damage, or loose straps, especially before and after periods of harsh weather.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your RV cover, consider the following:

• Cover Blowing Off or Loosening: Ensure all bottom buckle straps, front/rear straps, and rooftop straps are securely fastened and tightened. Adjust the tension panels for a snug fit. High winds can test the cover's security; re-check all fastenings after severe weather.
• Water Pooling on Top: While the cover is waterproof, significant pooling can occur if the RV's roof is not adequately sloped or if the cover is not taut. Ensure the cover is pulled tight and consider adding support structures under the cover to create a peak for water runoff if pooling persists.
• Tears or Abrasions: Inspect the RV for any sharp edges or protrusions that might be rubbing against the cover. Pad these areas if necessary. Use the provided repair patches for small damages. For larger damages, contact customer support.
• Moisture Inside the Cover: Ensure the air vents are clear and unobstructed to allow for proper air circulation. The RV should be dry before covering to prevent trapping moisture.
