Fridge Box

The fridge box is fitted with both 12 volt & 240 volt. 240 volt is only available  

on mains power.  Whilst small fridges will run okay on the ciggi style socket  

there is also a 50A Anderson Plug which is recommended for all fridges to be

connected to. Fridge tie down points are also provided so purchasing fridge 

tie down straps is also recommended.

Water Supply

There are two water tanks which supply water to both kitchen and shower.

The hot water system drawers water from front tank. 

Cold water is drawn from rear tank for shower and kitchen. Both pump switches 

must be on to use hot water. There are two filling necks with key lock caps.

Filling both is always recommended (and even refill if priming HWS as it will

take 28 litres). Please note:  Fast filling may overcome breather hose giving false

impression tank is full.

Awning

A simple manual winding awning with legs for day use. Some models may 

have ability to wall mount leg holders. On opening wind out awning until legs 

can be popped out of holder. Simply adjust height and use legs to support 

by “walking”  them out as you wind. 

Tip

: Always wind back awning in same direction it came out of awning rail.

they are needed.

     front to back.
