Initial start-up

During the initial journey and each time after changing a wheel, re-tighten

the wheel bolts/wheel nuts after 50 km (30 miles). Subsequently inspect

them at regular intervals in order to ensure that they are firmly seated. See

chapter 14 for tightening torque.

The motorhome is supplied with a set of keys, consisting of keys for the base

vehicle and keys for the body.

Always deposit a replacement key outside the vehicle. Make a note of the key

number. Our authorised dealers and workshops can offer assistance in case

of loss.

Registration

Your motorhome is a vehicle which must be registered. Observe national

regulations on registration.

Please remember that certain countries require a separate national code

sticker in addition to the EU plate.
