Thanks for hiring the Bush Palace Flamingo.  It is supplied with everything you need to take it away 

and enjoy your holiday.  The setup varies slightly depending on whether or not you have access to 

mains power and water, and whether or not you require the bed end privacy screens and awning.   

These instructions assume that you have never used a wind up style camper before; if you have there 

may still be some steps that are unique to this RV.  Please follow the instructions carefully to minimise 

the setup time and to ensure that the camper remains in excellent condition. 

The instructions may appear daunting, but in practice they are easy to follow and you will have the 

camper set up in no time! 

 

We hope that the Bush Palace Flamingo has everything that you need; if there is anything that 

you are not happy with we would ask that you contact us and give us the opportunity to fix it 

for you.  If you have any issues you can contact us on-
