in the outside of the body are correctly

sealed (this should be carried out only by

an approved dealership).

Awnings which employ rubber sucker or

Pole Pad attachments rather than screw

fixings are recommended.

On NO account should screws be

permitted to enter the shell sandwich

(from inside).

All Coachman caravans are classified

as Grade 3 thermal insulation.

This means that with an outside

temperature of -15ºC the internal

temperature can be raised to 20ºC

within 4 hours of starting the heating.

Exterior doors

Your Coachman caravan is fitted with

either the Holzhauer one piece door or

the Seitz exterior door.

Firstly and most importantly, the door

must not be slammed.

When closing the door from the outside,

the handle should be pulled and the door

pushed to with one hand. With the other

hand, pressure should be applied to the

front of the handle surround then the

handle should be released and you will

hear a click. This indicates that the door

is shut.

When closing the door from the inside,

you should move the lever down, pull the

door closed firmly then release the lever.

Towing Code

Driving licence entitlement

If you passed your car test before 1st

January 1997 you are generally entitled

to drive a vehicle and trailer combination

up to 8,250kg maximum authorised mass

(MAM). This is the weight of a vehicle or

trailer including the maximum load that

can be carried safely when it’s being

used on the road.

If you passed your driving test after

category B (car) licence, you can:

• Drive a vehicle up to 3,500kg MAM

towing a trailer of up to 750kg MAM

• Tow a trailer over 750kg MAM as long

as the combined MAM of the trailer

and towing vehicle is no more than

3,500kg

category B+E driving test.

a category B (car) test can tow:

• Small trailers weighing no more

than 750kg
