ABOUT THIS MANUAL
The Operator’s Manual for your new travel trailer is designed to answer the most frequently asked
questions regarding the operation, function, and care of the many systems that make modern camping
a pleasure.
For more complete instructions regarding safety, maintenance and operation of the items included in
your camper, carefully read the booklets supplied by the component manufacturers. All information
contained in this manual may not relate to your specific model; however, booklets supplied by the
component manufacturers and included in your owner’s packet will provide any additional information
needed. You are responsible for the reading, understanding and following the instructions pertaining to
the tow vehicle as well as the instructions in this manual.
All information in this handbook should be considered a permanent part of the trailer and should be
transferred to the new owners if the trailer is ever sold.
This manual may have occasional tips to enhance your experience of the recreational and camping
lifestyle. While this may be helpful, this manual is not designed as a camping guide but rather as a
guide in how to operate your trailer for maximum enjoyment.
This manual does not in any way create a warranty, whether express or implied. The information in this
manual is not meant in any way to supplement, modify, or change the terms and conditions of your
trailer’s warranty, or any warranties offered on any component by its manufacturer.
At nuCamp we actively work to provide improved and better information about the use of our
products. If you have helpful information that you think may benefit fellow nuCamp product owners,
you may submit it via e-mail to
with a subject of “Owner’s Manual”
and your submission will be considered for the next update.
