EXTERIOR

 

General Information and Operation

 

Doors 

The  doors  of  the  camper  are  manufactured  with  an  integrated  door  lock,  which  is  engaged  from  the 
outside by use of a key. The doors are fixed to the side walls by self-tapping screws and sealed by glue all 
around the gaps. 
When  doors  are open  fully  and  fixed  in  to  locking  system.  Please  remove  the  key  from  the  door  lock 
beforehand. 

 
 

 

CAUTION

: When towing, all locks must be 

secured.  The  constant  vibration  of  travel 
may  cause  the  door  to  open  resulting  in 
possible damage. 

 

 

Rear Door 

The rear door provides access to the rear kitchen area, the rear door lock is opened by the same key for 
side lock. Before driving the rear door must be locked. 

 

Towing

 

Tow Vehicle 

When buying a new vehicle to tow your camper, we suggest including towing options offered by most tow 
vehicle manufacturers. These include such things as a heavy-duty alternator and radiator, heavy-duty springs 
and shock absorbers, transmission cooler, heavy-duty fan, and flasher unit, etc., for the make of the vehicle. 
Transmissions may be manual or automatic, but an automatic transmission may prolong your tow 

vehicle’s 

life and 

generally does a better job of controlling engine loads than does the average driver using a manual 

shift. 

 

Having adequate power is very important when considering the purchase of a new vehicle or the trailer- 
towing capability of your present one. Auto dealers are provided with guidelines to use when helping a 
customer decide on a tow vehicle. Guidelines are not determined solely by the power output of the engine. 
The gear ratio of the differential is also a very important part of the guideline. 

 

Inspect the tow veh

icle’s hitch regularly for loose bolts or nuts, cr

acked welds, loose ball mounts, worn 

parts, etc. 

 

Remember that every item you take along is one more thing to tow and adds weight to the total load you 
must pull. Consolidate items in shelves, lockers, and in the refrigerator. It is better to have one full and one 
empty locker, than two half empty ones. Special care must be taken not to overload the front and rear ends 
of the trailer.
