TECHNICAL INFORMATION
SUITABLE FOR 2-3 PEOPLE: The cabin will seat three people comfortably. It will either have a CD/Cassette/Radio player and will work with your personal MP3 adaptor for your iPod or MP3 player.
LOADS OF STORAGE SPACE: Lots of storage under seats in the back of the campervan and a big overhead compartment over the cab to store all your bags ready for your holiday.
ENGINE: Very economical! Four cylinders, 2.4 litre unleaded petrol motor with five speed manual transmission.
FUEL (UNLEADED FUEL ONLY!): The tank's capacity is 60 litres of fuel. Average consumption is approximately 10 litres per 100kms. If you ever needed to top up the engine oil, then we would suggest Multigrade 20W50.
THE WATER TANK: This holds 45 litres of fresh water. The filler cap is located on the outside of the vehicle next to the gas bottle compartment. To fill the water tank, use the water hose located under the dinner seats inside the vehicle. Remember to fill the tank slowly to let any trapped air escape from the tank.
WATER PUMP: Travel Wheels campervans fitted with either a manual hand pump or a pressurized pump which is operated by flicking the switch on the side of the sink. If you do have a pressurized water pump, please ensure that the pump is turned off at the switch when not in use.
AIR CONDITIONER INSIDE THE CAB: The A/C for the driver and his/her passenger's works from the campervans' engine, therefore it will only work when the engine is running. Please can you consider the environment and not leave the engine running in idle to power the A/C unit.
DINER CONVERTS TO A COMFY DOUBLE BED: The flexible dining area simply converts into a BIG BED which is approximately 1.9m long by 1.7 wide, so there is plenty of room to relax in.
ROOF BED: This great space saving feature gives you a second bed in the roof of the campervan. This is suitable for a single person who weighs less than 100kgs.
THE GAS COOKER: Has two gas burners on the top and a grill underneath. For safety reason, do not use the gas when travelling and make sure that the gas is turned off after cooking and not just turned to the low setting.
THE GAS BOTTLE: is located outside the campervan on the driver's side. Please ensure that the gas is switched off when you are travelling, and for added safety turn the gas off at the bottle. If you are hiring the campervan for a long time and the gas bottle runs out, you can re-fill it at most petrol stations, and as well camping sites.
THE 55 LITRE FRIDGE: operates on dual power, 12 volt and 240 volt. The fridge will automatically turn from 12 volt to 240 volt when the van is plugged into external 240 volt power (extension lead supplied).
DUAL BATTERY SYSTEM: This means one battery solely starts the engine and the second battery located in the back of the campervan powers the fridge and the lightning in the camper.
THE TYPE PRESSURE: This is part of the essential maintenance the user must do daily. The recommended tyre pressure for these vehicles are, front: 45psi (310kPa), rear: 45psi (310kPa).
THE SPARE WHEEL: This is located under the rear of the vehicle, near the rear bumper.
ADDITIONAL TOOLS: There are a limited number of hand tools in case of an emergency. Remember there is a 24 hour emergency help in the unlikely event of a breakdown. If you need to change the spare wheel there is a jack in the compartment below the step just inside the sliding door on the passenger's side of the campervan.
LIGHTS: There are three lights in the campervan, one is a 240 volt light, and 2 12 volt lights as well.
FIRE EXTINGUISHER: Each vehicle is equipped with a fire extinguisher - Strictly for the use in cases of emergency. If they are discharged for any reason you will be held accountable. Please tell us if the fire extinguisher has been used so it can be refilled.
AIR CONDITIONER INSIDE THE SLEEPING AREA: Some of campervan have additional A/C units in the sleeping/dining area and they will only work when the van is connected to a mains power supply for example, a powered site on a camping ground.
