Newbie questions.

We have now made a few trips in our 2021 TAG Boondock, mostly good but there are some questions.
1. Why does the radio randomly turn itself on? It has happened several times with no obvious cause.
2. Where is the best place for the fire extinguisher since ours fell off. The official position is guaranteed to be banged into. Since the tiny screws holding it and the smoke and Co2 alarms have all pulled out of the plastic, what is the best way to reattach them.
3. Whats with the square and sharp corners on the interior shelves and cabinets? Boat builders used rounded corners; safer and stronger.
4. My last question for now, how do I remove the external washdown  unit for repair/replacement? I have unscrewed it but it appears glued in.
On the plus side, we survived winds up to 50 mph/80 kmh and torrential rain with no fuss, staying cosy and comfortable.

    Regarding #3, search online (OK Amazon) for corner bumpers (transparent child protectors)...   We have found that for about $1 USD each it is money well spent.   Indeed, the earlier models had graceful curves for the cabinets. Sigh.

    Hi, I have followed the corner bumper advice so that's fine, I still think it is poor building practice. It appears that the radio poltergeist is the alarm feature, since it was turned off no further problem. I would still like guidance on removing the external wash-down unit, it seems glued in and I do not want to break anything.
