Getting Started:
Starter Guide:
Keys:You have 2 keys, one for the cab doors, ignition and diesel cap.
The second is for the habitation door and all external lockers.
Fuel: Open the fuel tank with the main cab key.
Please note that the motorhome takes Diesel fuel only.
The fuel filler point is located on the passenger side of the cab.
Driving: Although the motorhome isn’t much wider than an ordinary car, it is longer.
We would recommend taking corners slow and wide, and advise precaution until you are used to driving the vehicle.
Look out for low bridges, overhanging trees and use caution on narrow roads.

5. 5
Fridge: Once you’ve started the engine we recommend that you turn on the fridge and set it to battery mode,
to start it cooling. Once on site you can switch the power to the mains 230v hook up. (See notes on Fridge Instructions)
Avoiding running the leisure battery down.
Levelling: Upon arrival at your destination, it is essential to get the motorhome as level as possible. It can affect the
efficient working of the fridge, drainage of the shower trays and sinks and most importantly your comfortable night’s sleep. They can be used to
lift one end or alternatively one side. Take care when using the ramps and drive slowly. If you overshoot and drive off the end, they could become
wedged under the motorhome.
Once levelled, apply the handbrake and leave in 1st gear.

6. 6
Tip: Run some water in the sink, if it flows away down the plug hole, its level. If water remains in sink, it’s not level.
Power: To use the onboard facilities you will
need to connect the motorhome to the onsite 230v mains electric supply.
1. Take the orange hook up cable from the rear locker, unreel the cable (Important to fully unreel all the cable as it can become hot) and
plug it into the mains connection on the left hand side of the motorhome.
2. Next, connect the other end of the cable to the socket at your pitch to use the sites power supply.
NOTE: connecting the motor home first avoids handling a live connector.

7. 7
The blue flap on the connector hooks onto the mating plug. So to
release the socket, pull the flap towards you pressing the release
lever at the same time. There may also be a switch on the campsite
socket outlet that must be turned on. The electrical control panel
for the Motorhome is over the entrance door.
Be aware that on its highest setting, the room heater can draw 8 amps of current from the campsite. If used at the same time as an electric kettle
and 4 amp water heater, the combined load may exceed the limit of the campsite supply (often 16 amps), and cause it to switch off and need
resetting.
There are main electrical switches and fuses located inside the motorhome, you have been shown on the handover and the main RCD switch
should you need to re-set the electrics after a trip.
DON’T DRIVE AWAY WITH THE CABLE CONNECTED

8. 8
Gas: To use the heating and hot water systems you will need to turn on the gas supply.
Simple open the gas locker on the side of the motorhome and turn the brass tap on the top of the
gas cylinder anti clockwise. (You may hear a hiss as the gas flows through) and clockwise to close.
Remember to turn the gas supply off when you aren’t using it. Ensure it is off also whilst travelling,
sleeping or away from the motorhome.
To change gas cylinders over, close the tap and unscrew the black plastic valve and undo the nylon
webbing strap restraining the cylinder.
When fitting a new cylinder, make sure sits flat on the floor before tighten the straps.
If You Smell Gas:
• Turn off the tap on gas cylinder
• Extinguish all naked flames
• Do not switch on any electrical devices (including battery powered ones)
• Open all doors and windows
• Stay outside of the motorhome until gas has dispersed

Fresh Water Tank(holds approx. 100 litres of fresh water)
To refill open cover on the passenger side of the motorhome and place the hose pipe into the tank
making sure that the hose is as far down as possible.
Make sure the pressure of the water supply is not on too strong as the water will be flowing too
fast & the tank will not be filled up fully.
Check levels of tank by using the control panel before you remove the hose pipe (see ‘control
panel’ section, it will indicate 0%, 33%, 66% or 100% full).
Grey Water Tank: Grey water is waste water from the shower, kitchen and bathroom sinks is collected
in a tank underneath the motorhome.

12. 12
returned fully, especially before travelling as they may catch/come off whilst travelling over road humps.
Note: The grey waste water should be emptied over a designated waste point on site before you leave (usually a grid
to drive over, ask on site for location).
Fridge: The fridge can run on
3 different power supplies:
• 230v hook-up socket – used when connected to a sites electric supply
• 12v leisure battery – only works when the engine is running!
• The fridge can also work on Propane gas. If no 230v electrical hook up is available.

cooling, the display lights will go off and a small
green light show on the on/off button.
If the fridge is unable to run from the selected
power source, the symbols will continue to flash and the on/off button will show a red light.
Before removing the mains 230v power, turn on engine and switch to battery mode or turn the fridge off!
NOTE: Please make sure you park the vehicle on level ground, any kind of incline and the fridge will not work.

Check power is switched on. Some site power points have to be switched on first.
Some campsites may not include power as standard, check with them directly. You may have to pay for it to be switched on.
Check the RCD in the motorhome hasn’t tripped (see notes on RCD).
If it’s an individual appliance not working try a different one or use another socket.
No Water: Check the water level on the control panel, if empty fill.
If tank has water, check the pump is on at the control panel (turn off when not in use, pump could burn out).
It’s Dark, No Light: Check the light switch control panel is switched on
Check the leisure battery is charged? Hook up to the sites mains power to recharge the battery

34. 34
Fridge not working: Display doesn’t light up when on button is pressed. Check the charge on the leisure battery on the control

Check the hook up mains connection and on the control panel.
Is the fridge on the correct setting? Select the plug symbol for mains connection.
No mains hook up, select battery symbol. Note the engine has to be running to work.
Gas, check the bottle is in the ON position, select the flame symbol. Is there enough gas in the bottle? Check.
Check the isolation tap is in the ON position (under the kitchen cupboard, snowflake symbol).
Check hob and oven are working this will determine whether the issue is the gas or the fridge.
Fridge not cooling: Are you on level ground? Uneven ground affects the efficient running of the fridge, use chocks to level
motorhome. It can take 2-3 hours for the fridge to cool, it can also take time to settle after been driven around.
NOTE: putting chilled food in can help the fridge cool quicker.
Outside temperature exceeds 30 degrees, if the temperature gets over 30 degrees it can affect the efficiency of the fridge.
Water coming from underneath the Motorhome: The frost protection switch may have tripped, this
should only happen when the temperature in the motorhome is below 4 degrees.

35. 35
Boiler not working: Check the gas bottle valve is open.
Is there enough gas in the bottle? If empty replace.
Remove the eternal cover off the boiler flue the boiler will not work with the cover on.
Do the boiler controls come on? No, check leisure battery charge on control panel, hook up to mains site supply to recharge the battery.
Yes, could be an air block in the system, turn on and off the boiler a few times to flush the system
Please note it can take up to 20 minutes for the system to warm up.
Hob Not Working: Check the gas bottle valve is open.
Is there enough gas in the bottle? If empty replace.
Check the isolation tap is in the ON position (under the kitchen cupboard, boiler/tap symbol).
