VENTILATION / SECURITY
Ventilation
All caravans comply with BS EN 721.
The ventilation points on your caravan are fixed
points of ventilation which are required by the
European Standards.
All caravans have ventilation at high level and
low level which have been calculated to suit
the individual needs of your caravan.
High level ventilation is achieved by means of
the roof lights and washroom roof ventilators.
The low level ventilators are positioned
underneath the oven housing.
Under no circumstances must these vents be
blocked or obstructed in any manner as this
could lead to insufficient fresh air. In this case
the confined atmosphere becomes depleted of
oxygen which could lead to dangerous levels
of carbon dioxide (CO
2
) build up leading to risk
of asphyxiation.
The risks of carbon monoxide (CO) build
up, which is a colourless, odourless and
tasteless gas, will also be reduced with
ventilation. Carbon monoxide is produced
from incomplete combustion and should the
CO detector be activated the cause of the
incomplete combustion must be investigated
prior to reusing the appliance in question.
It is advised that fixed ventilation points
are checked and cleaned (if necessary) on
a regular basis using a small brush and a
domestic vacuum cleaner.
Additional night time ventilation is obtained
by releasing the window catches and placing
them in the second groove. Note the windows
are not sealed from rain in this position.
As the ventilation levels are calculated to suit
each models requirements there should be
no modifications made which may result in
reduced ventilation levels.
!
WARNING:
Do not obstruct ventilation
Petrol/Diesel Fumes
The fitting of a tail pipe extension to your
car exhaust will reduce the possibility of
fumes entering your caravan through the
ventilation points.
Security
Caravan theft
The theft of a caravan can occur in the most
unlikely circumstances; from a motorway
service area, even from an owner’s driveway.
Secure all windows and doors when your
caravan is unoccupied even if only for a short
length of time.
Security chips
A special security chip is concealed within
the body of every caravan. This chip contains
the individual identity of your caravan and can
only be read using a special decoder by police
officers.
Chassis number
Your 17 digit serial number chassis number
can be found on your windows and on the
offside chassis member of the drawbar. It is
also stated on the manufacturers weight plate
next to the doorway.
Make a note of this number in the space
provided at the front of this handbook and
make a separate note of the number to keep
safe at home.
Additional security
Consider fitting any device which might deter
or prevent intrusion by thieves.
A hitch lock cover prevents towing of
the caravan.
A wheel lock prevents towing of the caravan
and removal of the wheel.
Customers are advised to identify their caravan
with a method for subsequent identification if
other forms of identification have been altered
or removed.
Free crime prevention advice about securing
your caravan, protecting your valuables,
property marking, either at home or whilst
on site, can be obtained from the Crime
Prevention Officer through your local
Police Station.
