Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION
vi) Never use portable cooking or heating equipment, other than
electric heaters that are
not direct radiant type, as it is a fire and
asphyxiation hazard.
vii) Your tourer is a compact living environment, and appliances
should be treated in the same way as those in the home to prevent
any accidental burning scalding - keep young children away from
hot surfaces.
viii) Your tourer is supplied with a EN1645 approved caravan step.
Always take care when entering or exiting your tourer, ensuring
that the step is securely located and safe before use. Do not use a
broken or damaged step.
ix) The torque setting of the caravan’s wheel bolts should be checked
after the first 30 miles after collection of the caravan from the
retailer. Thereafter, the wheel bolts should be checked before every
journey. The torque settings and tightening sequence are detailed
on page 22 of this handbook.
x) Care shall be taken against the risk of falling out when bunks are
used by children, especially under 3 years of age.
xi) Never attempt to lift the tow hitch with your hands when hitching
the caravan to the tow vehicle or at any other time. Always raise or
lower the tow hitch by winding the handle on the jockey wheel.
