General

The vehicle is constructed in accordance with the latest technology and the
recognised safety regulations. Nevertheless, personal injury may result and
the vehicle may be damaged if the safety instructions in this instruction manual
are not followed.
Depending on the configuration, the first-aid kit and hazard warning triangle
are not included as standard. Equip the vehicle with a first-aid kit and hazard
warning triangle before using it for the first time. In case of vehicles with a
gross weight exceeding 3.5 t a flashing hazard warning light has to be carried
additionally on the vehicle.
Only use the vehicle in a technically impeccable condition. Follow the instruc-
tions in the instruction manual.
Malfunctions which impair the safety of persons or the vehicle should be
immediately remedied by qualified personnel. To avoid further damages,
observe the duty to avert, minimise or mitigate loss for the user during faults.
Have the vehicle's braking and gas systems inspected and repaired by an
authorised specialist workshop only.
Alterations to the body are only to be carried out with the authorisation of the
manufacturer.
The vehicle is designed for the exclusive transport of persons. Luggage and
accessories may only be transported up to the maximum permissible gross
weight.
Observe the test and inspection periods stipulated by the manufacturer.

Environmental tips

Do not impair the tranquility and spruceness of nature.
Remember that: All kinds of waste water and household waste are not to
be disposed of in drains or in the open countryside.
Only empty the waste water tank and toilet cassette or sewage tank at dis-
posal stations at the camping or caravan sites, which are especially pro-
vided for this purpose. When stopping in towns and communities, observe
the instructions at caravan sites or ask where there are disposal stations.
Collect waste water on board only in the waste water tank or, if need be, in
other vessels suitable to this purpose.
Empty waste water tank as often as possible, even when it is not com-
pletely full (hygiene).
If possible, flush out waste water tank and, if necessary, drainage pipe with
fresh water every time it is emptied.
Never allow the toilet cassette or sewage tank to become too full. Empty
the toilet cassette or sewage tank frequently, at the latest as soon as the
level indicator lights up.
Separate household waste according to glass, tin cans, plastic and wet
waste also when on a journey. Enquire at the town or community authority
about disposal points. Household waste is not to be disposed of in waste
paper baskets which are situated at car parks.
Empty waste bins as often as possible into the cans or containers that are
provided for this purpose. This helps to avoid unpleasant smells and an
accumulation of rubbish on board.
