11 Quick Tips to set up and pack up your Air OPUS®
Tip 7 - During canopy ination make sure all external air valves are closed off and the main air
valve is open before turning air pump on.
Tip 8 - During annex ination make sure the air valves are closed off before turning air pump
on BUT MAKE SURE the cross filling tube valve is OPEN so that the air from the canopy can
purge/travel through to the air beams on to help.
Tip 9 - Remember to turn the
MAIN INFLATION valve in the
camper to the horizontal CLOSED
position when ination is complete
otherwise the canopy may slowly
deate over time.
Tip 10 - If the beams are losing air slightly you can turn the
inbuilt air pump ON and that will top up the air pressure in
all air beams back to the desired pressure, the pump will
turn OFF automatically. If you have a separate pump tube
and valve, ensure the pump is removed and the valve is fully
closed shut.
Tip 11 - Before you set off on your rst trip, do a couple of full set ups and while you have all
the canopy and annex up, remember to weather-in the canvas and allow to dry completely
before packing up!
To OPEN valve turn counter clockwise.
To CLOSE valve turn clockwise until firm.

About your Hitch
The Air OPUS®comes with a articulating
Lock’N’Roll hitch.
When hitching the Air OPUS®to your towing
vehicle you must ensure that someone is close
to the handbrake in order to maintain control
of the trailer, particularly when maneuvering
on uneven ground or a slope.
About your Electrical Plugs
7 PIN ROUNDED PLUG
The Air OPUS®is tted with a 7-pin rounded
plug that connects all the exterior trailer lighting
and the electric brakes to the towing vehicle.
A standard 7 pin plug is required on your tow
vehicle for this to connect to.
Disconnect these plugs when the engine of the
towing vehicle is not running, as it will continue
to draw current and you may end up with a
flat battery on your towing vehicle.
The 7-pin rounded plug runs through its own
resetable fused system located in the battery
compartment.
SOLAR PORT
You can also use the solar panel port to
attach a solar panel which will also charge your
Air OPUS®batteries. The solar panel must have a
built in charge regulator.
We recommend using any solar panel of at least
110W. Anything over 200W will be excessive as
you will not be draining your battery at such a
heightened rate.
HITCHING & TRAILER ELECTRICS

Water System Set up
The Air OPUS® is tted with two fresh water tanks, with one unit mounted in front
of the axle and the other unit mounted behind the axle. Each water tank has its
own lockable ll point located on the driver side of the body of the Air OPUS® and is
plumbed to a 12v switchable water pump located on the circuit board.
Each tank has its own pump, each tank is stand alone.
Air OPUS®WATER SYSTEM
One tank supplies water to the driver’s shower side outlet behind the wheels and the
shower also located in this area. There is also the capability to connect mains water to
your inlet but you will require an external water regulator to avoid damaging your
system. The other tank supplies water to the slide out kitchen. There is also a water
outlet located next to the tank outlet connector.
The water tting closest to the rear of the camper on either side is your tank outlet. The
water tting closest to the front of the camper on either side is your inlet/cross lling tube.
Remove the red dust cap from the tting before activating the pump to ensure the
tting is not engaged and your water doesn’t pump out.
To use an opposing tank, simply plumb the inlet and outlet together on the side you
wish to plumb from and run the pump for the tank corresponding to that side. Then,
connect the blue hose on the opposing side you require water at to the outlet closest
to the front of the camper.
www.opuscamper.us

T ENT INFLA TION TECHNOLOGY

The kitchen sink is connected with a short hose with tting attached, this is to be plugged
into the water outlet connection on the Air OPUS® and the water intake on the kitchen,
which is only accessible when the kitchen is fully extended.
The kitchen has a drain hose attached to the sink drain. This is designed to drain cold
water to a waste container/bucket as the Air OPUS® is a cold water unit.
The water pumps are pressure operated, so once the main 12 Volt power switch is turned
on at the circuit board, the pump will prime the system and as soon as you turn the tap on
the water will ow. Once the tap is closed the pump will turn off until the tap is turned
back on.
When the water system is not required Air OPUS® recommends to switch off the pump
when not in use.
When packing away the Air OPUS® follow the procedure below in order to drain the
system of any excess water before disconnecting the water inlet and internal waste pipe:
A. Switch off the pump at the mains power switch.
B. Open the tap & allow the excess water in the pipe to drain.
C. Close the tap once all of the water has drained.
D. Disconnect either side of the male-to-male hose coupler.
E. Place the bottom waste water outlet pipe away under sink.
Draining your Tanks prior to storage
DO NOT use your pumps to drain your tanks - running the pumps until the tank
is dry will damage your pumps and will not be covered by warranty. Use the drain
point/sump plug on the underside of the tank. For further storage information refer to the
STORING YOUR OPUS section in this handbook.

12V Power - Safe operating procedures
The OPUS® has many 12v outlets they are a combination of standard 12v sockets, mini 12v
sockets, USB sockets and switches.
You will nd their location as follows:
• In the front tool box / fridge compartment there is a standard 12v socket. In the same
area there is a small switch that operates the fan located in the door (if tted on this
model)
• On both sides of the tool box there is an LED work light. This has an automatic on/off
switch
• Inside the OPUS® there are four 12v mini sockets. These are for the 12v LED lights at
the bed end. Above the main circuit board there is a twin 12v USB socket.
• Externally at the rear passage side next to the kitchen slide-out there are two additional
12v mini sockets and a standard 12v socket. The two mini sockets are designed to
operate the 12v LED light on the kitchen and a small annex light.
12 Volt - Safe operating procedures
The Air OPUS®has many 12V outlets - they are a combination of standard 12V
sockets,12V light sockets, USB sockets and switches. These are located throughout
your camper trailer both internally and externally.
Next to the main door you will nd your stereo system, light switch and dimmers for
internal and external xed body lighting. The dimmers will only operate the build-in
lighting and will not inuence any other lighting you run via sockets.
The control panel has a battery volt-meter that will provide an indication of the remaining
charge of the batteries and amp draw display in real time. A full battery will be indicated
by the Battery Level Indicator.
There are also two water tank gauges which will display the water level when pressed.
All switches have their own resetable fuse next to each of the switches in addition toa
master resetable circuit breaker for the whole 12V system located next to these controls.
Your batteries are also fused - in the battery compartment the large resettable fuse is
wired to the 7-pin wiring harness tted at the drawbar.
All sockets, fridge power and lighting will operate on 12V power from the on board
batteries; heavy usage and power hungry appliances will deplete the battery’s charge.
It is recommended to have the mains 120V connected to a suitable supply if available,
even if appliances are run on 12V only, to ensure your batteries remain topped up.
The battery charger is fully automatic and will recharge the batteries if the
Air OPUS®is connected to an 120V electric power supply via the 30amp power inlet.
Do not unplug or disconnect this charger internally as it may lose memory settings
for your battery set up and affect your charging. This is an automatic cycle charger and
if using, allow enough time for the charger to complete a full charge cycle.
Regular battery maintenance checks (charge once a month) will prolong the life of
your battery as AGM/Deep Cycle Batteries do not like to be drained at.
Refer to your battery charger instruction manual for further details.

IMPORTANT
DO NOT CHANGE OR UNZIP BLADDERS
WHEN CAMPER IS INFLATED. ISOLATE
BEAM & DEFLATE BEFORE BEGINNING
DO NOT OVER INFLATE. If the bladder can
not be repaired please contact the dealer.
Step 7. Reattach the crosslinking tye to the
repaired beam. This is a rm t - ensure it
is pushed on ALL the way and sitting ush
before reopening valve.
Step 8. Reopen the crosslinking valves to
allow air to equalise. To repressurise the
camper, open your main valve and reactivate
pump - this will shut off again once
the cabin reaches pressure. Relock your
crosslinking valves again once done to
retain pressure.
IMPORTANT
Ensure zip doesn’t pinch bladder! Zip beam back in straight and aligned
to the holes in the tube. If a replacement air beam is fitted and the length

Storage
Pack down the camper correctly as per procedure outlined.
Make sure that you pack down your Air OPUS® tent and annex when the canvas is
completely dry BEFORE being stored. If taken down wet, dry completely at the rst
opportunity to avoid damage to the tent or annex - this MUST be done within the next
24 hours.
IIt is strongly advised that you purchase a storage cover for your Air OPUS® if it is to be
stored in an uncovered location. A storage cover is advised if your camper is left
exposed to the elements.
Clean off dirt, tree sap, bird & bad droppings and grime on the unit from travelling/
terrain to keep your camper in good condition and maximise its longevity. Failure to do
this may permanently mark or stain your composite panelling.
Regular battery maintenance checks (charge once a month) will prolong the life of your
battery as AGM/Deep Cycle Batteries do not like to be drained at. Empty the water
tanks prior to storing. Ensure this is done from drain points and not
by running the pump.
Return to the Road
Ensure that your camper and accessories are t for the road and you adhere to
all local laws.
Check the wheels and tires and ensure they are in good condition with the wheel nuts
correctly torqued (125NM).
Check the tire pressure before driving (80PSI when cold).
Check that polyblock coupling (receiving hitch) is tight.
Check the lights and ttings and ensure they are functioning correctly.
The chassis/running gear and the gas installation of your OPUS®camper should
be checked on an annual basis by a qualied service center.

Air OPUS®CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Caring for your Canvas
In order for the Air OPUS® to give you years of camping pleasure, the tent and annex need
to be cared for and MUST NOT be left wet/damp when packed away.
If it is unavoidable that you will have to pack down your Air OPUS® when the canvas is
wet, it is very important that the Air OPUS® tent, annex and ensuite room are dried in the
sun as soon as possible - this should be done within 24 hours.
All Air OPUS® tents and annexs must be “weathered” before use.
To do this you will need to thoroughly saturate the canvas by hosing it down with
water and then allow it to dry prior to its first use. It is possible, due to the nature
of the canvas that there may be a small amount of water ingress during the first
few uses in wet weather; this is normal as the tent and the annex go through
‘weathering’ or ‘conditioning’. If this persists, please notify us as soon as possible.
Maintenance Tips
• Allow condensation to clear and dry before packing/storing the camper.
• Regularly check the seams of the tent and annex and if required apply seam sealer or
suitable alternative. Follow the product instructions and allow to fully dry before packing.
• Regularly check the velcro straps and seams
• Never force the zips of the tent or annex to open or close; inspect for any issues and
rectify as necessary.
• Ensure the zips are used and cared for properly, if needed a zip lubricant can be used to
allow for smooth operation.
• Regularly inspect the tent and annex for holes, rips/tears and damages and have a
suitable tent repair kit for use in emergencies.
• Ensure doors and windows are closed before deation and reination
• Ensure your main ination valve and all cross linking valves are OPEN before
packing away
• Take care when setting up and packing down the camper to ensure the tent, and the
annex beading is not caught or snagged, should this occur retrace the steps and retry
making sure the issue is rectied.
• Should a rip/tear occur assess the damage before taking action. If unsure contact your
OPUS Camper dealer. Small rips/tears can be repaired using the appropriate repair kit
and procedure and may not require a professional or return to the dealer or us for repair;
should the damage be signicant or exceed your capacity, please contact your OPUS
dealer or us.

External Care for your Air Opus®
• Inspect the outside panels of your Air OPUS® including the roof (bed lids) for any
damage or cracks.
• Inspect the sealant around the panels to verify that there is adequate bonding around
the body panels and exterior features such as the front storage box/fridge cabinet. This
is especially important after an impact/accident to the camper to ensure the integrity of
the body’s resistance to water ingress.
• Regularly check the seals (center and perimeter) of the camper, to ensure there
has been no damage. Ensure your Air OPUS® is packed properly to seal the camper
and prevent water ingress.
• Keep the body and the roof of the camper clean, it is best to clean any mud and
dirt off the camper immediately or after every journey to maintain its clean nish.
• Prolonged exposure to UV, mud, dirt and salt may deteriorate the nish of the camper.
• The body of the camper can be washed with soap and water using a soft sponge. Rinse
the camper thoroughly after washing.
• A damp cloth may be preferred especially for small spots and dirt.
• Specialist products such as Care-avan Waterless Wash & Shine may be used where/
when adequate water is not readily available. Read and follow the instructions carefully
and it is advisable to try any product to be used on the camper on a small
inconspicuous spot to ensure/verify it is suitable before full use.
• Any form of damage or scratch to the paint work or nish of the camper on the body
may be repaired or cleaned by using a suitable ‘touch up’ stick/paint.
Contact your dealer or Air OPUS® camper directly for further information.

Condensation
Condensation needs to be considered in both the Air OPUS®camper tent and the
annex.
Condensation is caused by warm, moist air coming into contact with cold surfaces.
This can occur inside most tents and annexs, which may sometimes be misinterpreted as
the fabric leaking.
There is always moisture in the air when you pitch a waterproof fabric above damp
ground; however the situation is made worse by adding people who are breathing out
warm water vapour. When the warm moist air inside comes into contact with the fabric
of the Air OPUS®camper tent or the annex\material, which is cooled by the outside air,
condensation forms.
While the Air OPUS® is stored away condensation may occur we highly recommend you
open the Air OPUS® on a monthly basis for long term care of the canvas.
During rain more condensation can form due to lower outside temperature and drops
can form and run down seams or fall on internal poles, giving the appearance of a leak.
There are a few main causes of condensation:
• Ground moisture rising inside your annex.
• Your breath - when sleeping at night you will exhale approximately 34 oz of water.
This water vapour is trapped within your OPUS®or annex - this will escape
through opening windows, doors or vents.
• Storing damp or wet accessories e.g. oor mats, chairs, clothes etc.
• Cooking by gas - 0.5 hours of cooking can produce 17 oz. of water.
It is natural for the body to perspire (sweat) during the night; please ensure the camper
is WELL VENTILATED to avoid excessive condensation which could result in issues such
as mould or damp if adequate care is not taken.
After a night’s sleep please INSPECT the mattress to ensure no condensation is present
and the mattress is properly aired.
If in storage for a long period of time such as 4 weeks or longer, its recommended to
open and let it breathe for 24 hours. If the Air OPUS®is based in tropical warm areas
it will cause condensation when closed & may need to be opened & aired more
regularly.

Ventilation
Ventilation is more important than is generally realised - your Air OPUS®camper and
annxe have several windows/vents that can be opened to help increase air ventilation.
An increase in ventilation will result in a decrease of condensation. Under extreme
conditions, condensation cannot be completely avoided.
Condensation nearly always occurs on the roof poles and therefore it is often
confused with leaks.
Leave the ventilation panels open as much as possible. To prevent ground moisture
rising inside the awning, a plastic underlay can be placed underneath, but this will
cause the grass to die and may contravene some caravan/camp site rules.
When cooking in the Air OPUS® Annex it is crucial to ensure the ventilation
vents located above and below kitchen slide out are clear and not covered.
