Basic information When driving your motor home, always comply with the regional
traffic regulations and laws. Carefully plan your route in advance.
Drive carefully and in an environmentally responsible manner.
Bear in mind that your motor home a utility vehicle and its
dimensions and weight that are significantly greater than those of
a passenger car. Bear in mind that all vehicles exceeding a total
weight of > 3.5 t are subject to the regulations applicable to
lorries.
How to operate the motor home properly is described in detail in
the applicable operating manual of the base vehicle. Always
keep this operating manual on board for easy access for anyone
driving the vehicle. Comply with the information and the handling
instructions provided in the manual.
In addition, always comply with the instructions specified in the
"Safety" section of this manual.
Drive slowly if the road conditions are poor.
When driving onto ferries, travelling along rough terrain
(potholes or bumps), and while reversing the vehicle, special
care is highly recommended. When large vehicles encounter
the above-mentioned road conditions, the relatively long
overhang can cause them veer off and "bottom out". This may
damage the underbody or parts that are not mounted to the
underbody.
If an accident or damage occurs to the vehicle due to non-
compliance with this advice, the manufacturer cannot be held
liable.
