AIRSTREAM SAFARI –BAMBI TRAILER OWNERS MANUAL 2001
B-11
Backing Up
In BACKING UP the important thing to remember is to DO EVERYTHING SLOWLY and to correct immediately
if you see the trailer turning the wrong way. Concentrate on the rear of the trailer. With your tow vehicle and trailer
in a straight line back up slowly and turn the bottom of the steering wheel in the direction you want the trailer to go.
Watch out the window or in the mirror until the rear of the trailer is pointing in the desired direction. Your car will
be following the trailer in an arc. Straighten the car and trailer by turning the steering wheel more sharply, and then
when they are in line, straighten the steering wheel.
ALWAYS TRY TO BACK TO YOUR LEFT BECAUSE THE VISIBILITY IS MUCH BETTER. (See Illustration)
When you don't make it on the first try it is usually much easier to pull forward to your original position and start
over.
If your spouse or traveling companion normally directs you when backing they should position themselves forward
of the tow vehicle so the driver can easily see them. Their directions should always indicate to the driver the
direction the rear of the trailer should go. A little practice in a parking lot with the person giving directions can save
a lot of frustration when backing into a campsite. .
