TECHNICAL DATA
Base Vehicle Data
For all matters relating to the base vehicle, and
particularly tyre pressures, refer to the base
vehicle instruction book or if in doubt consult
your local base vehicle commercial dealer.
Tyre Pressures
The Auto-Sleepers conversion does not affect
the tyre pressures in any way because the
completed vehicle is built within the maximum
capacities of the base vehicle. The pressures
are specified by the base vehicle manufacturer
for the specified maximum axle masses.
The tyre pressure for Peugeot, Citroen and
FIAT vehicles can be found on a label located
on the door pillar on the left hand side. Check
the tyre size fitted to your vehicle and read off
the appropriate information.
The tyre pressures for Mercedes models can
be found on a label located on the driver’s seat
pan.

DEFINITIONS

freshwater tank is empty. If you travel

User Payload will reduce accordingly.
All other optional equipment whether on
the base vehicle or part of the conversion is
excluded from the mass in running order.
Mass of the User Payload
The Mass of the User Payload is the

for everything placed in or on it, including
the passengers (but excluding the driver
who is already included in the MRO).
