Introduction - Bailey Pursuit Owner's Manual

1. INTRODUCTION

Welcome!
Congratulations on the purchase of your
Bailey caravan. We would like to welcome
you into the ranks of Bailey owners. We are
confident that this vehicle will give you many
years of enjoyment.
This handbook has been designed to enable
you to derive the maximum benefits and
pleasure from your caravan. Its information
and hints will be beneficial and help to protect
your investment whether you are a new or
experienced caravan owner.
Please be aware that certain sections are only
applicable to some models.
Information leaflets and literature on safe
operation of appliances and equipment fitted
to your caravan are included in the Bailey
information pack. Please read these carefully
prior to use.
Failure to observe recommendations or
precautions could result in incorrect operation
of equipment which could in turn lead to
subsequent risk to occupants.
Regular maintenance is necessary to ensure
trouble- free service from your caravan. Your
Bailey retailer is equipped to offer service
facilities, repair work and any spare parts that
you may require.
Always consult your supplying retailer before
additional equipment is fitted to ensure the
location of appropriate structural support.
Retailers are not agents of Bailey and have
absolutely no authority to bind Bailey by
any express or implied undertaking or
representation.
Happy Touring!

Note
To enable Bailey and our retailer partners
to deal with your queries efficiently, always
quote your caravan's vehicle identification
number (VIN) which can be found on the
offside chassis member and is etched onto all
major windows.
It is the Bailey policy to constantly improve
their vehicles, so while all illustrations and
descriptive matter in this handbook are
intended to give a general idea of the caravan
and are correct at the time of going to press,
changing market and supply situations
may prevent us from maintaining the exact
specification details of this handbook. Bailey
therefore reserve the right to alter the
specification at any time without prior notice.
Bailey offer a variety of customer uses and
while each vehicle is designed to feature the
optimum storage, seating, sleeping and fluid
capacities, it is the customer's responsibility
to select the correct loads without exceeding
the weight capabilities of your chosen towing
vehicle. These weights can be found on the
weight plate located outside your vehicle next
to the exterior door and on the Approval Label
inside the gas locker.
