Explorer Group 2005 AVANTE, Owner'S Handbook Manual

Page: 3 / 133

WELCOME &
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on choosing an Explorer
Group Touring Caravan.
This Owner's Handbook has been
prepared for your guidance to help you
derive the greatest amount of pleasure
from the use of your caravan and your
leisure time.
We strongly recommend that you read
this guide thoroughly so that you are fully
conversant with all the caravan's features,
equipment and systems.
Additional information and detailed
appliance instruction manuals are also
contained in your Owner's Information
Pack.
Your new Explorer Group caravan has
been designed as a luxury recreational
vehicle and is intended for recreational
use only. It is not intended for business
use or for permanent habitation. The
Explorer Group accepts no liability if the
caravan is used for any purpose other
than recreational/holiday use.
Your caravan is designed to be towed
behind a normal motorcar. Additional
care should be exercised when towing
with a 4x4 because of the 'off-road' nature
of the suspension. (Explorer caravans
should not be towed behind commercial
vehicles).
When selecting a towing vehicle it is
recommended that you consult the
Caravan Towing Code, which is also
included in your Owner's Information
Pack.
By following the instructions provided in
this handbook and maintaining your
caravan in a first class roadworthy
condition, you are sure to have many
years of carefree use.
To ensure the very best quality and
reliability all touring caravan designs and
new developments are rigorously tested.
Therefore the Explorer Group Ltd will
accept no liability or uphold the warranty
if the caravan is altered or modified in
such a way that would adversely affect the
reliability.
Please Note: It is a condition of your
warranty that the caravan is serviced by
an Approved Retailer or Service Centre
once every twelve months, and that the
service record in the back of this guide, is
maintained in accordance with the
instructions.
Approved Retailers will be able to supply
any replacement parts for your caravan,
should the need arise, along with any
accessories you may require.
Please note that it is not possible to
purchase replacement parts direct from
The Explorer Group Limited.
Changing market and supply situations
may prevent us from maintaining the
exact specification details in this guide
and we therefore reserve the right to alter
specifications as materials and conditions
demand.
Enjoy your new caravan.
MODEL YEAR
