LONG TERM & WINTER STORAGE
If your motorhome is to be stored for any
length of time, especially over the winter
period, the following operations are
recommended:
(i)
Ensure all windows, roof lights,
habitation and exterior locker doors are
closed firmly and locked.
(ii)
Remove all soft furnishings which could
be affected by damp conditions
(iii) Clean the motorhome inside and out.
(iv) Drain the water system (see Water
system) 12-1.
(v)
For winter storage and to prevent frost
damage all taps must be left in the open
position. For those motorhomes with
lever taps please ensure the taps are left
in the central position.
(vi) All blinds and flyscreens should be left in
the retracted position. Check all fixed
ventilation apertures are not obstructed.
(vii) Ensure that the refrigerator/freezer
compartment doors are left open during
storage.
(viii) Check that the site you have chosen to
store the motorhome is open, fairly high
and dry and if possible not exposed to
gales etc.
Motorhome Covers
Covers may be used to protect your new
Elddis motorhome provided that the cover
used is of a breathable type.
Lower the TV antenna and ensure the cover
is well tied down to avoid the cover being
punctured.
Your motorhome must be ventilated every 4
to 6 weeks if it is to be stored with a cover in
place.
Battery Maintenance
Storage
Ensure that the leisure battery is fully
charged before placing the vehicle into
storage.
Check the battery state every month, if the
terminal voltage drops below 12.07V then re-
charging is necessary.
Charging should be carried out in a cool, dry
well ventilated area.
Do not place the battery onto cold surfaces
such as concrete as this will affect the
battery’s ability to charge.
Should the motorhome be stored for a
prolonged period of time it is strongly
recommended that the motorhome is fully
serviced before the commencement of use.
Your retailer will ensure that your motorhome
is safe, secure and ready for your enjoyment.
Please note:
It is recommended that you
place a bowl of salt within your motorhome to
absorb any moisture during the winter
months.
