2.4 Safety
Never leave children unattended in your motorhome. This safety precaution is fundamental in a motorhome, due to the
presence of medium and low voltage electrical appliances and gas-powered equipment.
Using the electric-window command can be dangerous. Ensure that there is no risk of the passengers’ limbs getting caught
in the electric-windows.
2.4.1 Fire
Provide an approved dry powder fire extinguisher with a capacity of at least 1 kg and familiarise yourself with its instructions.
Keep a fire-blanket near the kitchen area.
Consult the local fire safety measures. Do not store aerosol cans in the motorhome; there is a risk that they could explode at
temperatures above 50°C, which can often occur in the summer.
Never use cooking or heating devices other than those installed in the motorhome. If you must plug in a cooking
appliance or electric heater, it must work on the principle of direct radiation to avoid fire and asphyxia hazards.
Refer to “Emergency exits”, for a diagram of the emergency exit(s) in your motorhome

skin or eyes. Keep the battery away from flames, any source of sparks or aerosol cans: risk of fire or explosion
The battery is a dangerous piece of equipment and incorrect handling may provoke intense electric shocks.
