Swift Tourer Owner's Handbook Manual page 193

caravan lighting is fully operational and check
the vehicle is loaded appropriately, the nose
weight and tyre pressures are correct, and
confirm that the caravan is coupled to the
vehicle with the breakaway cable correctly
applied. Always re-check the ATC LED is
green after any interval during a journey, such
as a service station break.
Troubleshooting
Should you experience a fault with ATC, the
LED light on the fairing will change colour.
Therefore, refer to the table on page 186 and
follow the instructions. If no illumination of the
LED is evident, refer to system requirements
on page 3 and check towbar wiring for
permanent supply.
In the unlikely event that you receive a red
flashing LED light and disconnecting and
re-connecting the power does not alleviate
the problem, check the push rod position as
detailed below. Locate ATC on the axle and
check the position of the push rod. If no red
line is visible, ATC is not active, and can be
driven. However, we recommend that you
contact AL-KO at the earliest convenience.
If the red line is visible on the push rod, as
shown on the left, the caravan should not be
moved. The push rod needs to be removed to
deactivate ATC. Using two 17mm spanners,
the removal process is as shown opposite.
Loadings on Coupling Heads, Overrun
Assemblies and Axles
The permitted 'nose' weights of the coupling
head/stabiliser, overrun assembly and
drawbars, must never exceed the lowest value
stamped on the assemblies.
Fig. 1
The maximum axle loading is that stamped on
the plate (Fig. 1 example axle plate) located in
the centre of the axle, facing rearwards.
Do not attempt to remove as this will void
the plate.
The third line down marked "Capacity" is the
maximum permitted axle loading and must not
be exceeded.
The caravan manufacturer may have stated a
lower maximum loading weight on the plate
fitted adjacent to the entrance door, this then
becomes the maximum permitted load and
must not be exceeded. We recommend you
record the Axle details for future reference.
It may be possible if required for the caravans
MTPLM to be upgraded.
Your caravan dealer will require the following
details from the axle plate.
