Do not store aerosol cans in the campervan; there is a risk that they could explode at temperatures above 50°C, which can often
occur in the summer. Never use cooking or heating devices other than those installed in the campervan. If you must plug in a cooking
appliance or electric heater, it must work on the principle of direct radiation to avoid fire and asphyxia hazards.

of sparks or aerosol cans: risk of fire or explosion.

flames and lit cigarettes. Do not cause sparks: risk of fire or explosion.
Always wear suitable eye protection when working on the battery or nearby.
