ABOUT THE USER MANUAL
This user manual is for the living area of Coachman Travel Master.
The information in this manual is divided into four sections:
• Safety instructions
• Use
• Descriptions
• Maintenance.
The “Safety instructions” section of this manual gives succinct information on avoiding risks.
The “Use” section is intended for reference. It gives easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions on
the use of various pieces of equipment.
The “Use” section also provides su󰀩cient information for the correct use of the motorhome’s
living area. However, for full details and in-depth understanding, the “Descriptions” section must
also be read.
The “Descriptions” section is designed to:
• give information about the motorhome and its parts so that users understand how these
work and interact with each other.
• identify and name parts so that use and maintenance in accordance with the manual’s
instructions is facilitated.
• bring attention to risks and remarks that are important for the correct use of the motorhome.
• complement the instructions in the “Use” section by adding in-depth information and
instructions.
The texts and illustrations in these sections are primarily intended to be descriptive (not
instructive).
The “Maintenance” section gives instructions for the correct maintenance of the motorhome.
Maintenance includes both scheduled checks and other measures.
Note that this user manual relates only to the motorhome’s living area.
For instructions regarding the use and maintenance of the vehicle part of the motorhome,
Coachman refers you to the user manual provided by the vehicle’s manufacturer.
Illustrations in the present manual may relate to optional equipment or non-standard variants.
ATTACHED DOCUMENTATION
Documents from the manufacturers of the appliances and equipment in the motorhome are
appended to this manual. To understand the correct operation, use and maintenance of all the
equipment, it is important to also read this documentation.
Certain information is given in both Coachman’s user manual and the equipment manufacturers’
documentation. In the event of any discrepancies between information or instructions in these,
the manufacturers’ documentation has precedence.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Safety instructions
TRAFFIC SAFETY
Ensure that the motorhome is correctly loaded. Loads
must be evenly distributed and secured in the motorhome.
Heavy loads must be placed low down. Only lightweight
equipment is to be kept in overhead cupboards and similar
storage facilities.
There must be no loose equipment that can harm
passengers.
Check the weight of loads and ensure that the vehicle’s
maximum permitted weight is not exceeded.
Distribute loads in the motorhome so that permitted axle
loads are not exceeded. The permitted load for each axle
is stated on a plate in the engine bay.
Motorhomes with bicycle carriers:
Ensure that the bicycle carrier is secured in the “drive”
position and that the bicycles are correctly attached and
secure.
Before travel:
• close all exterior doors.
• ensure that the motorhome’s steps are retracted.
• ensure that the support legs have been fully wound up.
• close interior cupboard doors and drawers.
• ensure that the refrigerator door is secured.
• tables must be secured in their storage compartments.
• the bathroom is not used while the vehicle is in motion.
• roof ventilators are closed and locked in the down
position.
• top hinged windows are closed and securely fastened.
• passengers should only be carried in designated
passenger seats tted with approved 3-point seat
belts. Children should be seated on a bolster cushion
on a correctly tted child seats when the vehicle is in
motion.
• turn o󰀨 all gas appliances, expect those heating
appliances designed to function while the vehicle is in
motion.
• Roof mounted aerial is retracted and locked in posi-
tion.
• all exterior lockers and aps are closed and in the
travel position.
VENTILATION
All motorhomes comply with BS EN 721. The ventilation
points on your motorhome are xed points of ventilation
which are required by the European Standards.
Under no circumstances must these vents be blocked or
obstructed in any manner as this could lead to insu󰀩cient
fresh air. In this case the conned atmosphere becomes
depleted of oxygen which could lead to dangerous levels
of carbon dioxide (CO2) build up leading to the risk of
asphyxiation.
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 xed 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 modications should be made which may
result in reduced ventilation levels.
WARNING!
Do not obstruct ventilation.
WARNING!
Never use portable cooking or heating
equipment other than electric heaters
that are not of the direct radiant type,
as it is a re and asphyxiation hazard.
WARNING!
Appliances such as cookers must not
be used as space heaters.

INTERIOR FITTINGS
Certain models have a step.
The step’s maximum permitted load is 100 kg.
Certain models have a ceiling-mounted bed.
Use upper bunks for sleeping only, with the protection
against falling out in position.
WARNING!
Care shall be taken against the risk of
falling out, when upper bunks are used
by children, especially under 6 years
of age. these bunks are not suitable for
use by infants without supervision.
WARNING!
If you smell gas or suspect a leak or in
the event of a re and if it is safe to do
so, isolate the gas appliances and turn
o󰀨 the supply using the remote valve.
Evacuate the motorhome and ventilate.
Seek professional advice as to the
cause of the leak.
GAS SAFETY
WARNING!
In the interest of safety, replacement
parts for an appliance shall conform
to the appliance manufacturer’s
specications and should be tted
by him or his authorised agents.
Bottled gas is highly ammable. It must be treated with
respect.
LPG is not poisonous, however, it has been given a smell
by the manufacturers in order to identify leaks.
Every year, a professional must test the gas system for
leaks. Repairs to the gas system must be carried out by a
professional.
If gas taps are sti󰀨 to operate, or appear to be the source
of leakage, call a competent installer to rectify. LPG taps
require a special grease.
Turn o󰀨 all gas appliances, except those heating applian-
ces designed to function while the vehicle is in motion.
If any gas appliance is lit, driving into a petrol station is
prohibited.
Ensure that the boiler and refrigerator are turned o󰀨.
Turning o󰀨 all gas appliances before driving into a petrol
station is the driver’s responsibility.
When the motorhome is not being used, close the mas-
ter valve of each gas bottle.
When changing gas bottles, ensure that the area is free
from naked ames (including cigarettes) and glowing or
hot objects that may ignite the gas.
When changing gas bottles, use the leak tester to test
the system for leaks. If there is any suspicion of a leak,
contact a professional.
In garages, ferries or other enclosed areas, gas applian-
ces must be turned o󰀨 and the master valve of each bottle
must be closed.
Never allow modication of electrical or LPG systems and
appliances except by qualied persons.
Care should be taken that any additional equipment or
appliances are installed in accordance with the appliance/
equipment manufacturers and Coachman’s instructions
(e.g. air conditioning, satellite dish, fuel cells etc.)
