OPERATION

SAFETY
GUIDELINES
Practice
operating
the
manoeuvring
system
in
an
open
area
before
using
for
the
first
time.
This
is
to
fully
familiarise
yourself
with
the
handset
/
manoeuvring
system
operation.
Before
use,
always
check
the
caravan
manoeuvring
system
for
any
damage.
When
towing
or
moving
the
caravan
please
be
aware,
at
all
times,
that
ground
clearance
is
reduced
when
the
manoeuvring
system
has
been
fitted.
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
(e.g.
drive
rollers).
In
the
event
of
malfunctions,
pull
on
the
handbrake
immediately
and
turn
off
the
main
isolation
power
switch.
To
maintain
signal
strength,
always
make
sure
that,
during
manoeuvring,
the
distance
between
the
remote
control
and
the
caravan
does
not
exceed
5
metres.
Due
to
the
nature
of
a
radio
signal,
it
can
get
corrupted
by
external
terrain
or
objects.
So
there
may
be
small
areas
around
the
caravan
where
the
quality
of
reception
reduces,
hence
the
manoeuvring
system
may
stop
momentarily.
Always
be
aware
that
the
manoeuvring
system
increases
the
weight
of
your
caravan
or
trailer.
So
this
reduces
the
payload
of
the
caravan.
Do
not
exceed
the
total
safe
working
load
of
1800kg
laden
weight
(caravan
including
load)
when
2
motors
are
used
and
2500kg
laden
weight
(caravan
including
load)
when
4
motors
(twin
axle)
are
used
.
Always
make
sure
that
the
rollers
are
fully
disengaged
from
the
tyres
when
the
manoeuvring
system
is
not
in
use.
This
is
better
for
the
tyres
and
for
the
system.
Always
make
sure
that
the
rollers
are
fully
disengaged
before
towing/moving
the
caravan
by
vehicle
or
manpower.
This
can
damage
the
tyres,
manoeuvring
system
and
the
towing
vehicle.
Always
make
sure
that
after
you
have
finished
using
the
manoeuvring
system,
the
battery
power
isolation
switch
(29)
is
switched
off
and
the
key
is
removed
and
stored
in
a
safe
place
(out
of
reach
of
children
or
other
unauthorised
people).
If
you
switch
off,
the
battery
will
be
discharged
by
the
small
current.
Always
make
sure
that
the
remote
control
handset
is
switched
off
and
stored
(in
the
wall
holder)
in
a
safe
place
(out
of
reach
of
children
or
other
unauthorised
people).
If
you
switch
off,
the
battery
will
be
discharged
by
the
small
current.
Do
not
rely
on
the
manoeuvring
system
to
act
as
a
brake.
Always
apply
the
handbrake
after
manoeuvring,
before
disengaging
the
drive
rollers
from
the
tyres.
Do
not
use
the
manoeuvring
system
as
a
support
when
jacking
up
the
caravan,
since
this
can
damage
the
drive
unit.
Depending
on
the
weight
of
the
caravan,
the
manoeuvring
system
cannot
overcome
all
obstructions
without
assistance.
Please
use
wedges
as
a
ramp.
All
wheels
and
tyres
on
the
caravan
must
be
of
the
same
size
and
design.
If
tyres
are
worn
or
new
tyres
are
fitted,
the
distance
between
the
drive
rollers
and
the
tyres
may
need
readjusting
(see
-
Mechanical
Sensitive
objects
such
as
cameras,
DVD-Players
etc.
Must
not
be
kept
in
the
stowage
box
near
the
control
unit
or
the
motor
cable.
They
can
be
damaged
by
the
electromagnetic
fields.
Do
not
make
any
modifications
on
the
caravan
manoeuvring
system
(mechanical
or
electronically).
This
can
be
very
dangerous!
No
warranty
claim
will
be
accepted
and
we
cannot
guarantee
the
function
of
the
system
if
any
modifications
are
made.
We
will
not
be
liable
for
any
damage
whatsoever
caused
as
a
result
of
incorrect
installation,
operation
or
modification.
