GENERAL SAFETY
VENTILATION
All motorhomes manufactured by Elddis are
ventilated at both high and low level in
accordance with BS EN 721 Safety
Ventilation. The fixed ventilation points fitted
in your motorhome must not be blocked
under any circumstances as your safety may
depend upon them. It is advisable that the
fixed ventilation points are checked and
cleaned (where necessary) on a regular
basis.
High-Level Ventilation
This is always provided by fixed ventilation
within the fitted roof skylight. These roof
skylights should be cleaned annually by use
of a small brush to remove any dust that may
have accumulated around the mesh fitted.
On some roof skylights the mesh can be
easily removed to aid cleaning. On
fan-assisted roof skylights it is essential that
the fan is switched off prior to cleaning.
Low-Level Ventilation
All Elddis Motorhomes have fixed low level
ventilation provided. These ventilators are
covered with plastic covers designed to
prevent them from being obstructed by items
placed within the bed box. These covers can
be removed by undoing the two screws in
order to facilitate cleaning the ventilators,
however these covers must be replaced once
cleaning is completed.
It is essential for your safety that these
ventilators are not blocked at any time.
Ventilation in Separate Bedrooms
In motorhomes with separated sleeping
areas, separate ventilation is required and is
provided via a roof skylight at high level and
a ventilator at low level within a bed box.
Gas Dispersal Holes
All appliances and gas unions have a gas
dispersal hole within the same compartment.
It is essential that these are not blocked or
made ineffective.
FIRE SAFETY
Fire Extinguishers
It is recommended that a 1 kg (2lb) minimum
capacity dry powder fire extinguisher be
carried inside your motorhome at all times. A
pan fire must not have an extinguisher aimed
at it, but must be smothered with a fire
blanket.
In Case Of Fire
(i) Get everyone out of the motorhome as
quickly as possible using whichever exit
is quickest including windows. Do not
stop to collect any personal items.
(ii) Raise the alarm. Call the fire brigade.
(iii) Turn off gas container valve if safe to do
so.
Fire Retardant Foams
All motorhomes are equipped with
Polyurethane (PU) foam which are
combustion modified foam cushions, foam
mattresses and fire retardent fabric. All
furnishings and fabrics used by Elddis
comply with the Furniture and Furnishings
(Fire Safety) Regulations. In addition all
upholstery is made of fire retardant fabric.
Habitation Door
Note:
Please ensure you only remove the
key from the door with the key in the vertical
