X The oxygen in the vehicle interior is used up by breathing and the use of gas
operated appliances. That is why the oxygen needs to be replaced on a con-
stant basis. For this purpose, forced ventilation options (e.g. skylights with
forced ventilation, mushroom-shaped vents or floor vents) are fitted to the
vehicle. Never cover or block forced ventilations from the inside or outside
with objects such as e.g. a winter mat. Keep forced ventilations clear of snow
and leaves. There is a danger of suffocation due to increased CO
2
levels.
X Observe the headroom of the doors.
X If a roof rack with ladder is installed, only climb the ladder if the rear corner
steadies have been extended or the caravan is connected to the towing
vehicle or the caravan has been secured against tilting at the back. Otherwise
the caravan can tip over to the back. Danger of falling!
Z As far as the appliances (heater, cooker, refrigerator, etc.) are concerned, the
instruction manuals are authoritative. It is imperative that they be observed.
Z Fitting accessories or special equipment can alter the dimensions, weight and
road behaviour of the vehicle. Some of the parts must be entered in the vehicle
papers.
Z Only use wheel rims and tyres which are approved for the vehicle. Information
concerning the size of the approved wheel rims and tyres is included in the
vehicle documents or can be obtained from authorised dealers and service cen-
tres.
Z Firmly apply the handbrake when parking the vehicle.
Z When leaving the vehicle, it is imperative that all doors, external flaps and win-
dows are closed.
Z Only move the vehicle on the road if the driver has a driver's license valid for the
vehicle class.
Z When selling the vehicle, hand over all instruction manuals for the vehicle and
the fitted appliances.
X Before commencing the journey, carry out a functional check of indicating
and lighting equipment and the brakes.
X If the vehicle has been stationary for a long period (approx. 10 months) have
the braking and gas systems checked by an authorised specialist workshop.
X Before starting your journey, remove the television from the support and
store it securely.
X Before commencing the journey, place and secure the flat screen and screen
support in the initial position. If the screen holder is installed in a TV cabinet:
