TOURING CARAVANS - ANNUAL SERVICE/INSPECTION RECORD
In order to comply with the warranty, you must have your caravan inspected and serviced
by an authorised Swift Group Service Centre at least once per year.
It is important that the Owner’s Handbook is stamped on the appropriate page by the
authorised Swift Group Service Centre. Failure to do this will invalidate the warranty and the
transfer of the warranty on the change of ownership.
The inspection should take approximately two to four hours and will cover the areas dealt
with in the annual service check list. Any areas requiring service and/or maintenance will be
highlighted by your dealer and we recommend that you authorise any necessary work to be
carried out.

authorised Swift Group Service Centre covering the items listed.
