GENERAL SAFETY
VENTILATION
All caravans manufactured by Erwin Hymer
Group UK are ventilated at both high and low
level in accordance with BSEN 721 Safety
Ventilation.
High-Level Ventilation
This is mainly provided by fixed ventilation
within the fitted roof skylight. These roof
skylights should be cleaned annually by use
of a small brush to remove any dust that may
have accumulated around the mesh fitted.
On some roof skylights the mesh can be
easily removed to aid cleaning. On fan-
assisted roof skylights it is essential that the
fan is switched off prior to cleaning.
High level ventilation may also be provided
by additional fitted mushroom vents.
Low-Level Ventilation
Low level ventilation is provided within the
living area of your new caravan and these
can be identified by the fitting of a black
cover to prevent them from being obstructed.
This cover must not be removed. In order to
clean the ventilator, remove the cover by
undoing the two screws and clean using a
small brush. It is essential that the cover is
replaced once cleaning is complete.
Ventilation in Separate Bedrooms
In caravans with separated sleeping areas,
separate ventilation is required and is
provided via a roof skylight at high level and
a ventilator at low level within a bed box or
under the fixed bed.
Gas Dispersal Holes
All appliances and gas taps have a gas
dispersal hole within the same compartment.
It is essential that these are not blocked or
made ineffective.
Petrol/Diesel Fumes
The fitting of a tail pipe to your exhaust will
reduce the possibility of fumes entering your
caravan through the front fixed ventilation
points.
FIRE SAFETY
It is recommended that one dry powder fire
extinguisher complying with EN 3-7 of at
least 1kg capacity or equivalent is provided
by the main door and a fire blanket next to
the cooker. Familiarise yourself with the
instruction on your fire extinguisher and the
local fire precaution arrangements.
In Case Of Fire
(i) Get everyone out of the caravan as
quickly as possible using whichever exit
is quickest including windows. Do not
stop to collect any personal items.
(ii) Raise the alarm. Call the fire brigade.
(iii) Turn off the gas container valve if safe to
do so.
(iv) Retreat to a safe distance.
Fire Retardant Foams
All caravans are equipped with Polyurethane
(PU) foam which are combustion modified
foam cushions, mattresses and fire retardent
fabric. All furnishings and fabrics used by
Erwin Hymer Group UK comply with the
Furniture and Furnishings (Fire Safety)
Regulations. In addition all upholstery is
made of fire retardant fabric.
Escape Paths
Your new touring caravan has been provided
with escape paths to be used in the event of
an emergency. One of which is always the
main habitation door and others are the large
windows to be used where necessary. Care
must be taken when exiting via a window due
to the potential drop to ground level.
IMPORTANT: Your attention is drawn to
the notice affixed in the caravan’s
wardrobe advising on fire prevention,
ventilation and what to do in case of fire.
Please note: Do not work under the caravan
unless the corner steadies are down and the
axle is supported.
