xvi. If difficulty is experienced in this operation, try easing
the caravan backwards with one hand while engaging the
handbrake fully with the other. This manoeuvre should
not be attempted on a rearwards facing slope. In this
case wheel chocks should be used combined with the
handbrake.
xvii. Finally, if the road wheels have been removed, re-
tighten using a calibrated Torque Wrench to 130Nm-
on all M12 wheel bolts - in sequence, i.e. North, South,
East, West not clock or anticlockwise. Remember to
over tighten is just as dangerous as to under-tighten, as
this can distort the wheel rims. Avoid the use of power
wrenches.
The torque settings should be rechecked after
!
50km /30 miles. Wheel bolts should never be
lubricated.
In order to operate the Al-KO braking system
correctly adequate traction of caravan wheels
is required when reversing. Therefore surface
conditions that would result in a lack of
traction should be avoided. Example: Peas,
shingle/loose gravel.
Care should be taken when traversing ramps
or other obstacles in order to prevent damage
to the caravan under gear. When approaching
such obstacles
appropriately.

AL-KO ATC Trailer Control System
AL-KO ATC is an electronic, emergency control system
for caravans and trailers. It automatically recognises
critical swinging motions and applies the caravan brakes
accordingly to regain control of the caravan and car.
Safety Information
AL-KO ATC is a passive safety product that
activates the braking system on the caravan in
unsafe driving conditions.
The driver has a responsibility under law to ensure that
the elements of towing safety are met, including driving
within the legal speed limit, consideration of road,
weather and other traffic conditions, correct loading and
coupling of the caravan.
The electrical connection between the towing vehicle
and the caravan must be in good working order.
Operating Instructions
After coupling the caravan correctly to the towing
vehicle, connect the 13 pin plug to the towbar.
Upon connection, ATC will carry out an initial self test
and the LED light on the front fairing will light up on
RED. During the self test, the sound of the push rod
moving inside the ATC can be heard. When the self test
is complete, the LED will turn GREEN or flashing GREEN
to signal that the ATC is active.
If the LED does not change to GREEN, then the ATC is
not functioning correctly. The table on page 26 details
what to do in this case.
Prior to commencing any journey, ensure that the
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.
Should you experience any issues with your ATC please
contact AL-KO or the supplying Bailey Retailer.
