ELECTRICAL SAFETY
To connect 230 V AC, use 3 x 2.5 mm
2
earthed cable
approved for outdoor use and power loads of 3,600 W.
Connect the power cable only to an earthed socket.
Ensure that the power cable is placed out of the way of all
danger.
Damaged power cables must be replaced.
When replacing batteries, use the correct type of battery
for the motorhome and its equipment. Risk of injury and
overheating.
Any replacement of an auxiliary battery shall be of the
same type and specification as that originally fitted or as
specified by the manufacturer.
Never allow modification of electrical or LPG systems and
appliances except by qualified persons.
Care should be taken that any additional equipment or
appliances are installed in accordance with the appliance/
equipment manufacturers and Coachman’s instructions
(e.g. air conditioning, satellite dish, fuel cells etc.)
No appliance should be used outside the vehicle, which is
connected to an internal socket.
It is good practice to test the RCD (Residual Current
Device) in the PSU before switching on. There is a test
button on the RCD to test the lever, put the lever in the up
position (on) before testing.
Never start your motorhome engine whilst hooked up
to the 230V supply. This can lead to damage to the
PDU. When the motorhome engine is running, power to
the habitation area is isolated. Therefore sockets and
connections will not function unless designed to do so, eg
Refrigerator.
Care must be taken when connecting to a supply abroad
as the supply may have reverse polarity. Reverse polarity
can lead to safety issues due to the fact that when
electrical equipment is switched off it may not be electri -
cally isolated. The only certain way of making equipment
safe is to unplug it.
FIRE SAFETY
Powder extinguishers are recommended for fires in motor -
homes.
Provide one dry powder fire extinguisher of an approved
type or complying with EN3-7 or ISO 7165, of at least 1kg
capacity, by the main exterior door and a fire blanket next
to the cooker.
Familiarise yourself with the instructions on your fire ex -
tinguisher and the local fire precaution arrangements.
Familiarise yourself with the firefighting equipment at your
camping site.
If the door is obstructed/jammed, openable windows can
be used as emergency exits. Ensure that openable win-
dows do not get obstructed/jammed.
Ensure that the motorhome’s fire and CO alarm are wor -
king. Change batteries as necessary. Test the fire alarm
and CO alarm once a week (hold the button down until the
alarm goes off).
In the event of fire:
• Get everyone out of the vehicle as quickly as possible
using whichever exit is quickest, including windows. do
not stop to collect any personal items.
• Disconnect the 230 V electricity supply.
• Close the gas bottle’s master valve in the gas bottle
locker if safe to do so.
• If possible, move gas bottles to a safe place. They are
pressure vessels that must not be exposed to overly
high temperatures. If the gas bottles cannot safely be
moved, evacuate the vicinity of the motorhome.
• Tell the firefighters where the gas bottles are.
