Note
To enable Bailey and our Retailer partners to deal
with your queries efciently, always quote your
Caravan’s Vehicle identication number V.I.N which
can be found on the offside chassis member and is
etched onto all major windows.
It is the Bailey policy to constantly improve their
vehicles, so whilst all illustrations and descriptive
matter in this handbook are intended to give a
general idea of the caravan and are correct at the
time of going to press, changing market and supply
situations may prevent us from maintaining the
exact specication details of this handbook. Bailey
therefore reserve the right to alter the specication
at any time without prior notice.
Bailey offer a variety of customer uses and whilst
each vehicle is designed to feature the optimum
storage, seating, sleeping and uid capacities, it is
the customer’s responsibility to select the correct
loads without exceeding the weight capabilities
of your chosen towing vehicle. These weights
can be found on the weight plate located outside
your vehicle next to the exterior door and on the
Approval Label inside the gas locker.
