transfer of the warranty on the change of ownership.
The inspection should take approximately two to four hours and will cover the areas dealt
with in the annual service check list. Any areas requiring service and/or maintenance will be
highlighted by your dealer and we recommend that you authorise any necessary work to be

Warranty
5
All the illustrations and descriptive matter in
this handbook are intended to give a
general idea of the caravan. Changing
market and supply situations and our policy
of continuous product development may
prevent us from maintaining the exact
specifications detailed in this handbook.
We therefore reserve the right to alter
specifications as materials and conditions
demand.
Dealers are not agents of Swift Group
Limited, the manufacturer of Swift Group
caravans, and have absolutely no authority
to bind the manufacturer by any express or
implied undertaking or representation.
All caravans have a 3 year SuperSure
warranty from the date of purchase (or hire
purchase), which is subject to a chargeable
annual service and inspection being carried
out at an authorised Swift Group Service
Centre.
In the first 12 months this covers faults
arising from a manufacturing defect but not
those which are a result of normal wear and
tear. The manufacturer will honour the
warranty until 36 months from the date of
sale, and providing that the caravan has
been serviced annually within 90 days
before or 30 days after the anniversary of
the original sale. The third service must,
however, be carried out before the expiry of
the 36 month period from the original date
of sale.
In years two and three the warranty will
cover:
i) All original components of the caravan
including permanently fitted equipment
forming part of the manufacturer’s original
specification.
ii) Water ingress and body delamination.
Specific exclusions to SuperSure
warranty:
Tyres, glass, paint, brightwork and all
similar trim and finish. Soft furnishings,
carpets, floor coverings, work surfaces and
all other décor. Window catches, stays and
associated fittings. Adjustments of brakes,
blinds, hinges, catches, stays and doors.
Replacement of bulbs, fluorescent tubes,
fuses and electrical connections. Natural
movement of internal doors and furniture.
Audio equipment. Fair wear and tear.
The warranty will be invalidated if the
caravan has been neglected, misused or
modified. The warranty on all internal
components will be invalidated if the
caravan has been used for hire or reward.
The caravan will be deemed to have been
neglected if it has not been serviced and
maintained as stated in this handbook.
The warranty only applies to caravans
purchased and used within the UK, and for
continuous journeys abroad of no longer than
90 days per journey.
The cost of transporting, towing or moving the
caravan by any means to or from the place of
repair is the responsibility of the owner.
The benefit of this warranty may be transferred
to a new owner if the caravan is sold, provided
that the caravan has been serviced by an
authorised service centre in accordance with
the requirements of this handbook, and details
of the change of ownership have been
supplied to Swift using the change of
ownership form set out in this handbook.
Failure to notify Swift of a change of ownership
within 14 days of such change will invalidate
the warranty.
This warranty only applies to caravans
purchased in the UK.
The above conditions in no way affect your
statutory rights in respect of the caravan.
