Ventilation and Condensation
The ventilation points on your Caravan
are xed points of ventilation which
are specied by European Standards.
Under no circumstances must these be blocked
or obstructed. It is advised that xed ventilation
points and any protective screens are checked and
cleaned (if necessary) on a regular basis.
Fresh air circulation should be allowed below the
Caravan when appliances are in use and when ues
terminate below the oor to allow free evacuation
of the products of combustion. At least three sides
of the under-oor space should be kept clear and
unobstructed including by snow. Do not make any
additional openings in the oor.
Additional night time ventilation is obtained by
releasing the window catches and placing them in
the second groove on the frame catch.
Under no circumstances should the caravan
ventilation be covered, blocked or tampered
with in any way.
The tting of a tail pipe deector to your exhaust
will reduce the possibility of fumes entering your
caravan through the front xed ventilation points.
However, an extension tted to an exhaust tail pipe
will be illegal if it projects beyond the vehicle body
or bumper.
