GENERAL ADVICE
As a safety precaution have the at tyre
replaced or repaired before tting back under
the leisure vehicle.
When the spare wheel is being used on the
vehicle, the retaining cable could damage the
underside of the vehicle if not retracted.
Crank up the cable again by turning the crank
clockwise. (The wheel with the at tyre can be
stored on the carrier for transport purposes.)
Returning the spare wheel to the storage
compartment
1. Use the crank (turn it counter clockwise)
to lower the spare wheel’s retaining cable.
When there is no wheel attached, the
cable will need to be gently pulled from
the carrier during lowering to ensure the
cable does not tangle inside the carrier.
2. Pass the toggle at the end of the cable
through the centre hole in the spare
wheel. Pivot the toggle 90 degrees so
that when raised, the wheel will rest on
the toggle.
3. Retract the retaining cable slightly by
slowly turning the crank clockwise several
times.
4. Position the wheel so that it is not
obstructed by components under the
oor.
5. Continue to raise the wheel by turning
the crank clockwise. Raise the wheel a
little bit at a time and guide it until it is
securely seated against the oor.
6. When it is no longer possible to turn
the crank any further check that the
spare wheel is seated tight against the
underside of the oor and has not fouled
on any component.
7. Replace the plastic stopper inside the
vehicle.
The vehicle jack must only be used
for changing a wheel.
Under no circumstances should
anyone be allowed underneath the
vehicle when it is elevated on a jack.
On no account should it be used for
repair work under the vehicle. Never
jack-up the vehicle by the rear axle,
front axle, oil sump or transmission.
When working on a loaded vehicle,
use a suitable hydraulic lift platform
or work in an inspection pit. Always
consider the centre of gravity of the
vehicle. Before driving onto platforms,
check for low lying vehicle parts.
Safety and Security
Important: your attention is drawn to the
notice xed in your motorhome advising on
re protection, ventilation and what to do in
case of re.
Children,
Never leave children alone in the motorhome
and keep potentially dangerous items out of
reach as at home e.g. matches drugs etc.
When upper bunks are used by children,
especially those under the age of six, care
should be taken to ensure against the risk of
them falling out. These bunks are not suitable
for the use of infants without adult supervision.
Fire Extinguishers
It is recommended that a 1 Kg (2.2lb) minimum
capacity dry powder re extinguisher be
located near to the main habitation entrance
door.
• A pan re ‘should’ not have a re extinguisher
aimed at it but be smothered with a re
blanket. This should be within easy reach of
the hob but away from the source of ames.
• In case of a re
Get everyone out of the motorhome as
quickly as possible using whichever exit is
nearest including windows. Do not stop to
collect any personal items.
• Raise the alarm. Call the re brigade
Turn off gas cylinder valve if it is safe to do
so.
Ventilation and Condensation
The ventilation points on your
motorhome are xed points of
ventilation which are specied by
European Standards. Under no
circumstances must these be blocked
or obstructed. It is advised that xed
ventilation points and any protective
screens are checked and cleaned (if
necessary) on a regular basis.
Fresh air circulation should be allowed below
the motorhome when appliances are in use and
when ues terminate below the oor to allow
free evacuation of the products of combustion.
At least three sides of the under-oor space
should be kept clear and unobstructed
including by snow. Do not make any additional
!
