TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
TECHNICAL DATA
Base Vehicle Data
For all matters relating to the base vehicle,
and particularly tyre pressures, refer to the
base vehicle instruction book or if in doubt
consult your local base vehicle commercial
dealer.
Weights, Dimensions and Capacities
Before using your Auto-Sleeper you should
be fully conversant with all matters relating to
weights. The following definitions should be
fully understood and then related to the
tabulated base vehicle weight data.
Weights
Details of vehicle weights are found below,
and are presented in the manner prescribed
in the European Union Regulation 1230/
2012.
Take care to ensure that heavy loads are
stored low down in bed boxes and low
cupboards, and distribute weight evenly side
to side as far as possible.
Note 1:
Please take care to ensure that you
have allowed for the masses of all items you
intend to carry in the motorhome, e.g.
passengers, optional equipment, essential
habitation equipment and personal effects
such as clothing, food, pets, bicycles,
sailboards and sports equipment, etc.
Note 2:
Warning - Under no circumstances
should the maximum technically permissible
laden mass of your motorhome be exceeded.
Note 3:
The Mass in Running Order contains
a provision for the masses of gas cylinders
and may contain a provision for the mass of
water which may be carried in the fresh water
tank which is dependent on the specification
detailed by the manufacturer. You are
recommended to check with your retailer to
determine if the mass in running order
contains the mass of fresh water that may be
carried in the fixed water tank.
Note 4:
Passengers should only be carried in
designated passenger seats fitted with
approved 3-point seat belts. Children should
be seated on a bolster cushion or in correctly
fitted child seats when the vehicle is in motion.
Note 5:
All gas equipment must be turned off
when the vehicle is in motion unless the gas
equipment installed has been designed for on
the road use and the en-route heating must
comply with UNECE Regulation 122.
DEFINITIONS
Maximum Technically Permissible Laden
Mass (MTPLM)
The Maximum Technically Permissible Laden
Mass is a figure given by the manufacturer of
the base vehicle. It is the combined maximum
permitted weight of the vehicle and all of its
contents, both inside and out. The MTPLM is
unaffected by the Auto-Sleeper conversion.
Mass in Running Order (MRO)
The Mass in Running Order is defined as the
mass of the vehicle equipped to the
manufacturer’s standard specification and
including the following:
•
Driver (assumed to be 75 kg, 11st 12lb)
•
Fuel tank - 90% full
•
Mains electricity connection cable
Note:
The MRO assumes that the freshwater
tank is empty. If you travel with water in the
freshwater tank then the User Payload will
reduce accordingly.
All other optional equipment whether on the
base vehicle or part of the conversion is
excluded from the mass in running order.
Mass of the User Payload
The Mass of the User Payload is the
difference between the MPTLM and the MRO.
It is the vehicle’s carrying capacity for
everything placed in or on it, including the
passengers (but excluding the driver who is
already included in the MRO).
Everything listed in italics below must be
subtracted from the payload.
