WELCOME AND INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on selecting your new
Touring Caravan.
This Owner’s Handbook has been prepared
for your guidance to help you derive the
greatest amount of pleasure from the use of
your caravan and your leisure time. We
strongly recommend that you read this guide
thoroughly so that you are fully aware of all
the caravan’s features, equipment and
systems.
Additional information and detailed appliance
instruction manuals are also contained in
your Owner’s Information Pack which can be
found within the kit box supplied with your
caravan.
Your new caravan has been designed as a
recreational vehicle and is intended for
recreational use only. It is not intended for
business, hire use or for permanent
habitation. Erwin Hymer Group UK
accepts no liability if the caravan is used
for any purpose other than recreational/
holiday use. Any use other than
recreational/holiday use will invalidate
your warranty.
Your new caravan is designed to be towed by
a normal motor car.
If you intend to tow it with a pick-up type
vehicle, passenger derived van or a 4x4 type
vehicle, additional care should be exercised
because of the potential for a harder rear
suspension on such vehicles which may
impose excessive loads onto the caravan.
You may also have to adjust your driving
style over rough terrain and particular
attention should be given to the height of the
tow ball in relation to the caravan coupling.
Ref: (United Nations Economic Commission
for Europe) UNECE R55 states that the
centre of the towball should be between
350mm and 420mm above the ground level.
Your new caravan should not be towed by a
commercial vehicle with a gross vehicle
weight in excess of 3500 kgs.
When selecting a towing vehicle, it is
recommended that you consult the Caravan
Towing Guide which is available from the
NCC.
By following the instructions provided in this
handbook and maintaining your caravan in a
first class roadworthy condition, you are sure
to have many years of carefree use.
To ensure the very best quality and reliability
all touring caravan designs and new
developments are rigorously tested.
Therefore Erwin Hymer Group UK will accept
no liability or uphold the warranty if the
caravan is altered or modified in such a way
that would adversely affect the reliability.
Please note: It is a condition of your
warranty that the caravan must have an
“annual service” carried out by an Erwin
Hymer Group UK approved Retailer / Service
Centre or NCC Approved workshop or NCC
equivalent standard as set out in this
handbook and a record is kept. Pages are
provided in the back of this guide, for your
assistance.
An Erwin Hymer Group UK Approved Retailer
/ Service Centre will be able to supply any
replacement parts for your caravan, should
the need arise, and in most cases any
accessories you may require.
Please note: It is not possible to purchase
replacement parts direct from Erwin Hymer
Group UK.
Changing market and supply situations may
prevent us from maintaining the exact
specification details in this guide and we
therefore reserve the right to alter
specifications as materials and conditions
demand.
Enjoy your new caravan
