VENTILATION / SECURITY /
SWIFT COMMAND TRACKER
Ventilation
All motorhomes comply with BS EN 721. The
ventilation points on your motorhome are fixed
points of ventilation which are required by the
European Standards.
All motorhomes have ventilation at high level
and low level which have been calculated to
suit the individual needs of your motorhome.
High level ventilation is achieved by means of
the roof lights and washroom roof ventilators
(where applicable). The low level ventilators are
positioned under sink units.
Under no circumstances must these vents be
blocked or obstructed in any manner as this
could lead to insufficient fresh air. In this case
the confined atmosphere becomes depleted of
oxygen which could lead to dangerous levels
roisf kcaorfbaosnpdhyioxxiaidtieon(C. O2) build up leading to the safe at home.
The risks of carbon monoxide (CO) build
up, which is a colourless, odourless and
tasteless gas, will also be reduced with
ventilation. Carbon monoxide is produced
from incomplete combustion and should the
CO detector be activated the cause of the
incomplete combustion must be investigated
prior to reusing the appliance in question.
It is advised that fixed ventilation points
are checked and cleaned (if necessary) on
a regular basis using a small brush and a
domestic vacuum cleaner.
Additional night time ventilation is obtained
by releasing the window catches and placing
them in the second groove. Note the windows
are not sealed from rain in this position.
As the ventilation levels are calculated to suit
each model requirements no modifications
should be made which may result in reduced
ventilation levels.
! WARNING: Do not obstruct ventilation.
Security SAFETY AND SECURITY
Motorhome theft:
The theft of a motorhome can occur in
the most unlikely circumstances; from a
motorway service area or even an owner's
driveway. Secure all windows and doors
when your motorhome is unoccupied even if
only for a short length of time.
VIN (Vehicle identification Number)
Record your motorhome VIN which can be
found on the lower edge of the base vehicle
front windscreen and the plate located on the
front cross member under the bonnet.
Make a note of these numbers in the space
provided at the front of this handbook and
make a separate note of the numbers to keep
Additional security
Consider fitting any device which might deter
intrusion by thieves. Customers are advised
to identify their motorhome with a method
for subsequent identification if other forms of
identification have been altered or removed.
Free crime prevention advice about securing
your motorhome, protecting your valuables,
property marking either at home or whilst
on site, can be obtained from the Crime
