User manual TakeOff
General
Never leave dirt on the surfaces for too long,
since some substances may have a detrimental
effect on the colour, structure and/or gloss. This
could occur, for instance, in bird droppings,
certain berries, salt deposits near the coast,
severe air pollution, insects, etc. Always rinse
cleaned surfaces with clean water. Drying by
use of a wash-leather or soft cloth may prevent
water stains. The use of aggressive solvents is
highly discouraged.
Chassis
De-icing and gritting agents have an aggressive
effect on the surface of the chassis. During the
winter, the galvanised chassis as well as the
structure must be hosed down immediately
after the journey. Claims with regard to signs
of corrosion as a consequence of the above
will not be accepted. Cleaning of the chassis
must also be done before placing the TakeOff
in winter storage. The necessity of intermediate
cleaning obviously strongly depends on the
usage conditions.
Frequently clean the light-alloy wheels with
shampoo.
Plastic parts exterior
First clean the plastic components of the exte-
rior by use of a special plastic (ABS) cleaning
agent. The maintenance of the plastic exterior
parts is similar to that of a car. After cleaning, it is
advisable to manually apply a wax coating
every now and then. Be careful with stickers,
logos and side-transfers, these could be
damaged by polishing and cleaning agents.
Do not make use of cleaning or polishing
paste and/or polishing machines, this
could harm the top layer of the plastic
parts.
Make use of soft (micro fibre) cloths.
It is strictly forbidden to drill or mill or
make other changes to the plastic parts
of the exterior. Any claims that can be
traced back to self-adjustments of the
ABS body parts of the trailer will not be
accepted.
Gas hoses
Make sure that, in addition to the annual in-
spection of the gas system, the gas hoses at
the front and back of the TakeOff are checked
regularly for cracking. Check the date on the
hose. If the hose is outdated, replace it imme-
diately.
Lighting and electrical
installation
Before departure, you must check the correct
functioning of the traffic and interior lighting.
In case of problems occurring, after having
purchased a new car in the meantime, first
check the correct connection of the electric
wiring of the car’s towbar. Your car dealer and/
or Easy Caravanning dealer can easily
perform this test. Frequently test the correct
functioning of the circuit breakers by pushing
the test button while the system is activated at
230 V. All electric devices must now be dis-
connected. Subsequently, switch on the main
switch on the circuit breaker.
