Hobby's voluntarily granted (5 year) warranty against
leaks in the mobile home, as set out in the guarantee
conditions, will only take effect if the (chargeable) in-
spections for leaks were carried out correctly. To this
end, the mobile home must be taken to a Hobby dealer
12-18 months after receipt of the vehicle. After the initial
inspection for leaks, this inspection must be repeated
every 12 months during the warranty period.
Hobby recommends that you contact a service partner
before driving there and enquire whether they have the
necessary capacity (e.g. an adequate car lift) in order to
avoid any misunderstanding.
