With regard to camping in winter, we
recommend that you optimize your
camper to meet your personal requi-
rements. Your Hobby dealer will be
pleased to advise you.
12.8 Winter Operation
Your camper has been designed to allow you to
use it in winter.
The following applies for heating:
• Both the air intake as well as the exhaust gas
openings of the heating system must be kept
free of snow and ice (if necessary, use ue
extensions).
• It takes longer to heat up the camper in winter,
especially to heat hot water.
• Do not let the interior cool down completely
when you are away or at night; set the heating
to low and leave it on.
The following applies for the interior ttings:
• Clean the interior of your camper. Hoover
carpets, cushions and mattresses. If possible,
store them outside the camper. Otherwise,
place them in such a way inside the vehicle
that they do not come into contact with con-
densation.
• Use soapy water to clean linoleum and
smooth surfaces.
• Empty and clean the refrigerator. Leave the
refrigerator door open.
• After cleaning them, leave stowage spaces,
cupboards, drawers and furniture aps open
to facilitate air circulation.
• Leave vents for forced ventilation open. If the
camper is kept in a closed space, you can
leave the skylight open.
• Air the camper thoroughly every four to six
weeks when the weather is dry.
• Set up a dehumidier (such as salt) inside the
camper and dry the granulate or change it
regularly.
Please also refer to the information
given by the manufacturers of built-in
devices regarding winter.
