Engine performance unsatisfactory:
• Carry out the same check as for straight line driving
• Check the fuel filter for soiling
• A fully loaded motorhome cannot be compared with a car in all its handling. Inclines and strong head-
winds reduce driving performance.
• If the engine control lamp lights up, visit the nearest workshop immediately.
Headlights defective:
• If a light does not come on, please check before changing a light bulb that its contacts are not oxidi-
sed and that the fuse in question is intact
• Blown bulbs must be replaced with new ones of the same type and output.
• Only touch halogen lamps by the base or with protection on the glass bulb. Touching the glass bulb with
your fingers. Can lead to reduced brightness, damage to the reflector and the rupture of the glass bulb.
