Ventilation
All motorhomes comply with BS EN 721. The
ventilation points on your motorhome are fixed
points of ventilation which are required by the
European Standards.
All motorhomes have ventilation at high level
and low level which have been calculated to
suit the individual needs of your motorhome.
High level ventilation is achieved by means of
the roof lights and washroom roof ventilators
(where applicable). The low level ventilators are
positioned in the front or rear bed fascias in
van conversions.
Under no circumstances must these vents be
blocked or obstructed.
It is advised that fixed ventilation points
are checked and cleaned (if necessary) on
a regular basis using a small brush and a
domestic vacuum cleaner.
Additional night time ventilation is obtained
by releasing the window catches and placing
them in the second groove. Note the windows
are not sealed from rain in this position.
As the ventilation levels are calculated to suit
each models requirements there should be
no modifications made which may result in
reduced ventilation levels.
WARNING: Do not obstruct ventilation.
SECURITY - Motorhome theft:
The theft of a motorhome can occur in
the most unlikely circumstances; from a
motorway service area or even an owner's
driveway. Secure all windows and doors
when your motorhome is unoccupied even if
only for a short length of time.
VIN (Vehicle identification Number)
Record your motorhome VIN which can be
found on the lower edge of the base vehicle
front windscreen and the plate located on the
front cross member under the bonnet.
Make a note of these numbers in the space
provided at the front of this handbook and
make a separate note of the numbers to keep
safe at home.
Additional security
Consider fitting any device which might deter
intrusion by thieves. Customers are advised
to identify their motorhome with a method
for subsequent identification if other forms of
identification have been altered or removed.
Free crime prevention advice about securing
your motorhome, protecting your valuables,
property marking either at home or whilst
on site, can be obtained from the Crime
Prevention Officer through your local Police
station.
