Chapter 12: Maintenance and Care
12.1 Maintenance
Maintenance intervals
There are stipulated maintenance intervals for the motor home
and its equipment.
Also note the maintenance intervals for the basic Fiat vehicle.
HOBBY grants a 5-year guarantee on the absence of leaks
in the caravan in accordance with the guarantee conditions.
To this end, the vehicle must be taken to your HOBBY
dealer every 12 months for a chargeable inspection for
leak tightness.
The following applies for maintenance intervals
• Have the first maintenance carried out by a HOBBY dealer
12 months after the vehicle was first registered.
• All further maintenance should be carried out once a year
by a HOBBY dealer.
• The maintenance of the basic vehicle as well as all built-in
equipment should be carried out at the intervals given in
each operating manual.
The inspection of the gas facilities (subject to extra cost)
is to be repeated every 2 years by a liquid gas expert. This
inspection is to be conducted and certified in accordance
with the German Association of Gas and Water Experts,
worksheet G 607, and EN 1949. The operator is responsi-
ble for scheduling this inspection.
Replace safety regulator knobs and hoses after 10 years at
the latest!
Note that high-pressure gas hoses must be replaced after
5 years.
For safety reasons, spare parts for equipment must conform
with the manufacturer‘s instructions and must be installed
by him or a duly authorised representative.
