SAFETY GUIDELINES
If you need any help finding the constant power source of the car (in your caravan) please contact the
manufacturer or supplier of your caravan for the wiring diagram.
NOTE: This constant e cable power source (+12V) CANNOT be in direct connection with the
caravan battery! Check this very carefully, otherwise the auto
Steady
system will not work!
You can test this by disconnecting the connector from the car so the co12V voltage
drops. By connecting the connector on the car again, the +12V voltage will be restored. If
you have doubts you can drop this option (it is not obliged).
Route the cable for the emergency draw back function (18) from the constant power source (+12V) to control
unit.
Again it is recommended to use the supplied trunking (26) to protect the cables against sharp edges. Attach the
cable and trunking with the cable ties (17) or P-Clips (14 & 15) and mounting screws for P-Clip (13).
Cut the cables to the correct length. Remove approx 5mm of the insulation from the end. Fix the spade
connectors (23) by using crimping pliers. A secure and good quality connection on each cable is essential.
Connect the cable for emergency draw back function (18) to the control unit.
Finally find a suitable place for the remote handset wall holder (28) and fix this by the supplied screws (out of
reach of children or other unauthorised people).
Installation of the
auto
Steady system is now complete.
Practice operating the
auto
Steady system before using for the first time. This is to fully familiarise yourself with
the remote control and the
auto
Steady system operation.
Before use, always check the
auto
Steady system for any damage.
Always ensure that children and pets are kept well out of the way during operation.
When operating the system, ensure that no hairs, fingers or other body parts, clothing or any other
objects carried on the body can become trapped by moving or rotating parts.
Do not use the
auto
Steady system to jack up your caravan. Just as the standard corner steady of your
caravan can only be used for stabilising, also the
auto
Steady system cannot be used for jacking up
your caravan.
Before using the
auto
Steady system always make sure that your caravan is levelled out in all
directions.
In the event of malfunctions, turn off the main isolation power switch immediately.
To maintain signal strength, always make sure that, during action, the distance between the remote
control and the caravan does not exceed 5 metres.
Due to the nature of a radio signals, external terrain or objects can interfere and reduce the
effectiveness. So there may be small areas around the caravan where the quality of reception reduces,
hence the
auto
Steady system may stop momentarily.
Always be aware that the
auto
Steady system increases the weight of your caravan. So this reduces
the payload of the caravan.
Always make sure that all the corner steady are fully drawn back before towing/moving the caravan.
This can damage the corner steady, caravan or the towing vehicle.
Always make sure that after you have finished using the
auto
Steady system, the battery power
isolation switch (24) is switched off and the key is removed and stored in a safe place (out of reach of
children or other unautho
rised people). If you don’t switch off, the battery will be discharged by the
small ”standby” current.
Always apply the handbrake during action.
Always make sure that the remote control is stored in a safe place (out of reach of children or other
una
uthorized people). If you don’t switch off, the battery will be discharged by the small ”standby”
current.
