Winter Laying Up
Care should always be taken to ensure your
investment is receiving the best attention,
particularly prior to going into winter storage.
The following tips will be helpful for the periods
when your Motorhome is not regularly used.
It applies if you store in a compound away
from home, or in your own drive.
Tyres
Care should be taken to ensure that your vehicle
is not stored with slightly deflated tyres as this
could cause damage to the side walls that could
lead to an accident when driving at speed.
Ideally you should rotate your wheels every
couple of weeks to try to eliminate flat
spots developing.
Water System
It is important that the water system is fully
drained off during the winter months to avoid
freezing when the Motorhome is not in use or
after the last trip of the season. Failure to do this
could result in serious damage to components.
To Drain Off
• Open the drain valve on the fresh water tank
to ensure it is fully empty.
• Open the drain valve on the waste tank to
ensure it is fully empty, (only drain into a
suitable container).
• Open all taps inside the vehicle and
leave open.
• Open the drain valve inside the vehicle to
empty the water heater and empty the pipe
work inside the vehicle.
• Allow the vehicle to drain in this way for five
minutes, then run the pump to ensure it is
free of water.
• Empty cassette toilet, (see manufacturers
instructions).
