It will be necessary at first use to fit the inner tents. This is
a simple procedure and involves inserting the mattress into the
base of the inner tent and clipping the top of the inner to the
cabin frame. The seat cushions also fit within the inner tent
to enlarge the bed. Once fitted the inner tents need only be
unclipped from the frame before folding. Then, along with the
mattresses are secured when folding by the retaining straps.
DO NOT PUT TOO MUCH STRESS ONTO THE INNER TENT
SUSPENSION POINTS.
The trailer tent should be guyed using the guying points
supplied on the trailer tent. Please note that guying is only
reliable if the correct tent peg is used and the peg is inserted
correctly (see following section).
General purpose pegs are supplied with this trailer tent and are
suitable in many instances.
There are many types of pegs
available and it is up to you to choose the correct peg for the
job. Your sunncamp dealer will be able to give you advice.
The mudwall is located on the inside of the trailer tent awning
and a groundsheet can be laid on top of it in the living area.
These should be clipped on the curtain track and retained by
the curtain tape. Pack curtains separately if they are wet or
even slightly damp to avoid any possibility of colour transfer.
If possible, this should be done when the trailer tent is
completely dry.
Reverse the erection procedure remembering
to unclip the inner tents before folding. Take care to fold beds
and cabin frame in the correct order - failure to do this will
result in damage.
PLEASE TAKE EXTREME CARE WHEN TAKING DOWN YOUR TRAILER
TENT IN WINDY CONDITIONS.
DO NOT TRY TO TAKE YOUR
TRAILER TENT DOWN ON YOUR OWN - GET SOMEBODY TO HELP
YOU.
CANVAS
This should always be packed away and stored completely dry.
If you have to take your trailer tent down wet then, at the first
possible opportunity, PITCH THE TRAILER TENT TO DRY IT. DO
NOT LEAVE IT PACKED WET. Damp storage will cause mildew and
may result in colour run. IMPORTANT: If your trailer tent is
wet do not pack curtains with canvas as this may result in
colour transfer.
NEVER clean your trailer tent with anything other than pure
water and a soft brush. NEVER USE detergents, petrol, turps
etc.
It may be necessary to re-proof your canvas at sometime. The
time will vary according to the amount of use and the
prevailing conditions.
There are many good waterproofing
agents available - see your sunncamp dealer for details. NEVER
use aerosols or other chemicals close to your trailer tent
canvas.
FRAME
Take care not to put excess strain on your frame.
When
erecting or dismantling, make sure that you do not over-extend
the spring links. Should this happen, your sunncamp dealer will
be able to supply replacements. Should your frame require any
lubrication of moving parts we advise the use of a silicon spray,
DO NOT USE ANY OIL BASED PRODUCT!
KITCHEN
Ensure that the legs of the kitchen are securely tightened. The
front panel of the kitchen should be removed by lifting upwards
with the kitchen lid/s open. The Holiday 350 and 400 have a
split kitchen top. Only use the gas cooker with both lids open.
GAS CONNECTION
The double burner & grill are designed to operate from either
butane or propane using regulators of the following operating
pressures:
Butane - 28 mbar
Propane - 37 mbar
The kitchen has a push on gas hose fitting and the gas hose
(not supplied) should be fastened using a suitable hose clip.
Connect and operate the regulator according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.

TRAILER
The sunncamp trailer is designed to be as maintenance free as

The chassis and trailer frame are galvanised to
provide superb corrosion resistance. It is however quite normal
for the finish to dull - this will not affect the performance or
