2.2 General
2.3 Road safety
The oxygen in the vehicle interior is used up by breathing or the use of
the gas cooker or other appliances. That is why the oxygen needs to be
replaced on a constant basis. For this purpose, forced ventilation options
(skylights with forced ventilation or mushroom-shaped vents) are fitted
to the vehicle. Never cover or block forced ventilations 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.
Observe the headroom of the conversion door and the driver's door.
As far as the fitted appliances (heater, cooker, refrigerator, etc.) and the
base vehicle (engine, brakes, etc.) are concerned, the instruction manuals
are authoritative. It is imperative that they be observed.
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.
Only use wheel rims and tyres which are approved for the vehicle. Informa-
tion concerning the size of the approved wheel rims and tyres is included
in the vehicle documents or can be obtained from the Bürstner dealers.
Firmly apply the handbrake when parking the vehicle.
If the maximum permissible gross weight of the vehicle exceeds 4 tonnes,
wheel chocks must be used when parking on gradients. The wheel chocks
are provided as standard for vehicles with a maximum permissible gross
weight exceeding 4 tonnes.
When leaving the vehicle, it is imperative that all doors, external flaps and
windows are closed.
Carry a hazard warning triangle and a first-aid kit and/or flashing hazard
warning light when this is required by law.
When selling the vehicle, hand over all instruction manuals for the vehicle
and the fitted appliances.
Before commencing the journey, carry out a functional check of indi-
cating and lighting equipment, the steering and the brakes.
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.
Before commencing the journey and after short interruptions of the
journey, ensure that the entrance step is completely retracted.
Before commencing the journey, secure the hinged pull-down bed to the
roof using the retaining belt.
Before commencing the journey, open and secure the shades on the
windscreen and on the driver's and front passenger's windows.
Before commencing the journey, rotate all swivel seats in the direction
of travel and lock in position. During the journey, the swivel seats must
remain locked in place in the direction of travel.
Before commencing the journey, remove the television from the support
and store it securely.
