Preparing for the Road
Loading Your Vehicle
All models manufactured by Auto-Trail are of
a well balanced design, the most common
causes of poor stability include:
• Poor weight distribution of the weight inside
the vehicle.
• Incorrect tyre pressure (always adhere to
the tyre pressures stated in the chassis
manufacturers handbook. Always inflate
to the ‘fully laden’ condition).
Try to load heavy items down near the floor of
the vehicle, between the axles and as evenly
as possible side to side.
We would recommend that the table is stored
on the floor between the beds if there is no
dedicated storage position.
Where a dedicated storage position is available,
the table should be retained in this position
whilst the vehicle is in motion.
Roof Rack (If Fitted)
Please be advised that the maximum
recommended weight that should be carried
on the roof rack is 40kg.
Please be aware that in certain conditions
the fibreglass roof may become very
slippery, please take extreme care should
you choose to walk on the vehicle roof.
Bicycle Carrier (If Fitted)
Auto-Trail recommends that if a bicycle carrier
is fitted to your vehicle it should be capable of
carrying no more than two cycles.
The Frontier model is designed to accept a
specific model of cycle carrier details of which
are available through your supplying dealer.
Never exceed the maximum authorised weight
that should be specified on the carrier.
Tow Bars
Various suppliers manufacture tow bars that can
be fitted to your Auto-Trail vehicle. Please check
with your tow bar supplier that the tow ball fitted
to your vehicle fits your requirements exactly and
does not contravene any road traffic regulations.
