GENERAL SAFETY
Please read before using your new
campervan.
In order for you to get the most out of your new
campervan it is necessary for you to be aware
of the following:
(i)
Do not obstruct ventilators (See Safety
Section - Ventilation)
(ii)
Inspect the flexible gas hose regularly
for deterioration and renew as
necessary, with approved type, as and
in any case no later than the expiry date
stated on the hose.
(iii)
Never use portable cooking or heating
equipment inside your campervan. Do
not use your fitted cooking equipment as
heating at any time.
(iv)
Never allow modification to your gas or
electrical system unless qualified
persons carry them out. A Gas Safe
Register™ approved gas fitter should
carry out all modification to the gas
system. Any modifications carried out on
the electrical system should be carried
out by a suitably qualified electrician.
(v)
Never exceed your campervan’s
Maximum Technical Permissible Laden
Mass.
(vi)
Never exceed the front or rear axle
maximum load as specified by the Fiat
weight plate under the bonnet.

Pull out/lift up worktop extensions,
where fitted, are only designed to take
maximum weight of 6kgs.
(viii)
Please ensure extra care when young
children use high level bunks and
always use the safety nets and lift up
flaps provided.
(ix)
Do not leave children under 14 years of
age unattended in your campervan.
(x)
Please ensure all gas appliances are
turned off while you are travelling.
(xi)
If you suspect there is a gas leak please
open all the windows then vacate the
campervan. Switch off the gas supply if
it is safe to do so. Then contact your
nearest Elddis Retailer to arrange for
them to check the gas system.
(xii)
Only those seats designated for
travelling should be occupied when the
campervan is in motion.
(xiii)
Please note that campervans are
covered by the seat belt regulations,
which came into force in October 2006.
These require children that are under
12 years old and also under 135cm in
height to be seated in either child seats
or on bolster cushions.

Before travelling in your campervan:
Ensure all the tables have been stored
in their designated table storage
position.

Ensure you remove all items from the
microwave before travelling.
(xvi)
It is essential that you have securely
closed and locked the habitation door
before setting off on any journey.
(xvii) Care is to be taken when mounting and
dismounting the toilet due to its
elevated height.
(xviii) Turning OFF the internally mounted gas
taps is an accepted method of isolating
the gas system whilst travelling.
Proper And Safe Use Of Storage

For the installation (or use) of any LPG
gas operated appliances, (unless supplied
