HOW TO USE YOUR CARAVAN’S EQUIPMENT
ROOFLIGHTS
Your caravan is fitted with at least one type of
the following roof lights.
The Omivent (12v) Rooflight (Option)
The Omivent is a double-glazed roof light
constructed from a synthetic ultra-violet
screened material. Its side-operating mechanism
allows a completely free central opening with
built-in fixed ventilation when closed. It operates
as an extractor fan and air intake fan.
Please note: Do not change the direction of the
fan unless it has been switched off ‘O’ position
and the blades have stopped rotating.
The Heki 2 Rooflight (Option)
To open to the tilted position:
(i) Press the knob in the toggle catches on
either side of the rooflight and turn through
approx. 90
°
.
(ii) Grasp the metal bar in the middle, snap it out
of its holder, swivel down and press the
rooflight upwards. (The rooflight is held by
the two gas springs after approx. 150mm).
(iii) Swivel the metal bar towards the rooflight
and snap into its holder.
(iv) To close the rooflight, proceed with steps (i-
iii) in reverse order.
To open in the intermediate position:
(i) Open the toggle catches on either side of
the rooflight.
(ii) Grasp the metal bar in the middle; snap it out
of its holder, swivel down and press the
rooflight outwards. (Rooflight is opened
automatically after approx. 150mm by the
two gas springs.)
(iii) Open both fasteners and swivel the metal
strap toward the intermediate position and
pull the rooflight down until the metal strap
is stopped by the fasteners.
(iv) To close, proceed with steps (i-iii) in reverse
order.
To open in the ventilation position:

the rooflight.
(ii) Using both hands on the two toggle catches,
press the rooflight up about 2cm and fasten
the toggle catches in the corresponding
setting.
(iii) To close, proceed with steps (i-ii) in reverse
order.
Closing the blinds:
(i) Take hold of the end rod (without rocker) in
the recessed grip and engage in the opposite
end rod (with rocker).
(ii) Select the required position (blackout/
flyscreen) by moving both joined end rods
together.
CAUTION: In extremely bright sunshine, the
blackout blind must only be closed two-thirds,
and the rooflight must be set in the continuous
airing position.
Opening the Blinds:
(i) Move blind (end rod with rocker) right to
the outside.
(ii) Hold the recessed grip with one hand; with
the other hand, press the rocker and move
the blind back (do not let it recoil).
