HOW TO USE YOUR CARAVAN’S EQUIPMENT
WINDOWS
Your caravan will be fitted with Polyplastic framed
windows.
Polyplastic Window Opening
(i) In order to open the Polyplastic window it is
only necessary to move the catch upwards
and release the catch from the backing plate.
(ii) The Polyplastic window should remain in the
open position once opened, however if it
does not then tighten the friction control on
the window stays to increase the holding
force.
(iii) The Polyplastic window is also fitted with a
night ventilation position where the catch is
set to the centre position on the backing
plate; in this position it may be possible for
rain to enter the caravan in adverse
conditions.
BLINDS & FLYSCREENS
Blinds
(i) Pull blind down by its centre catch. Do not
pull down by one side of the blind. This will
inevitably lead to problems.
(ii) Do not allow blinds to spring back freely.
Always control them by hand.
Flyscreens
(i) To operate the flyscreen, either pull the
screen fully down, fully up or across,
dependant on type of window fitted, and clip
into place on the blind/frame.
(ii) To release, unclip from the blind/frame. If a
cross bar is fitted, gently pull the crossbar
downwards towards you and allow the
tension of the spring to roll up the flyscreen.
(iii) Where a crossbar is not fitted, disconnect
from the blind catch and release gently.
(iv) It is recommended that blinds are not in the
closed position whilst the caravan is moving.
Door Flyscreen
The exterior door flyscreen can be opened or
closed from inside or outside the caravan and
does not restrict door openings. When opening
or closing the door flyscreen use the finger grip
provided.
TAPS
Kitchen Taps
Your new caravan will be fitted with a Whale
mixer tap.
Operation
For correct operation of the tap, swivel the spout
to the desired position over the sink. Lift the
control lever to activate the pump and allow
water to flow simultaneously. To adjust the
temperature, swivel the lever to the left to
increase the temperature and to the right to
reduce the temperature.
WARNING: The water temperature could
be very high so do not lift the lever with
the tap turned to the full left position.
Caution:
For winter storage and to prevent frost
damage the tap swivel must be left in the centre
up position.
Washroom Taps and Showers
Your caravan will be supplied with either a vanity
mixer tap or separate shower mixer, or with a
combined mixer tap with retractable shower head.
Operation
The mixer tap and shower mixer are operated in
the same manner as the kitchen tap by lifting the
control lever to activate the pump and swivelling
the lever left or right to determine the
temperature.
WARNING: The water temperature could
be very high so do not lift the lever with
the tap turned to the full left position.
Caution:
For winter storage and to prevent frost
damage the tap swivel must be left in the centre
up position.
