Default Velcro strips

On the back of the ahower wall and on the back of the wardrobe (rear bed side) are velco strips. Is there suppose to be a velcro strip on the sliding bed curtain? Just curious about it...there isn't on our curtain but I wonder what it is suppose to mate to.

Yes, I guess there is supposed to be velcro on the bed curtain. I have no idea why - the curtain hangs in place just fine without it - but the curtain on my 2006 seems to have matching velcro swatches.

The velcro strips are used to rehang the curtain lower to allow air flow from the A/C to cool the rear bedroom. You have to slide the curtain hangers out of the ceiling track first to use this feature.

Thanks Mike, we've often wondered about the purpose of those strips.

I never knew that either! What a think tank this place is.

I'm glad you brought up that question... I always wondered too... figured it was a design change where perhaps the curtain was once hung from velcro and these were just pre-velcro'd left over parts... glad to hear there is a reason for it. However, I don't think my curtains have the other part of the velcro on them so don't think I could use it that way.

Since it is just my hubby and I, we don't use the curtain at all and I've thought about taking it off, but it works well to shut off that area of the TM during the day when it's really hot so it stays cooler with the AC in the part of the TM we are in.
