The following applies for the roof load
• Use only standardised and licensed ladders that can be positi
-
oned firmly to climb onto the roof.
• The roof has not been made for concentrated loads. Place
a large-scale cover over the area you wish to step on before
standing on the roof. Materials with a soft and smooth surface
(such as a large piece of styrofoam) are suitable for this purpose.
• Do not step too close to the roof lights or the air conditioning
systems on the roof (stay at least 30 cm away).
•
Do not step on the curved areas at the front and rear ends of
the caravan.
5.4 Roof
Be careful when standing on the roof. There is a great
danger that you will slip if the roof is wet or icy.
The maximum total load for the roof rail is 80 kg!
5.5 Guide rail for awning and draft skirt
The bead of the awning slides into the guide rail for the awning on
both sides of the caravan, both at the front and
rear ends.
The slot in the awning rail is wider
j
at the rear end of the caravan
(above the rear lights). This makes it easier to insert the awning.
