Motorhome Warranty
All the illustrations and descriptive matter in
this handbook are intended to give a general
idea of the motorhome. Changing market and
supply situations and our policy of continuous
product development may prevent us from
maintaining the exact specications detailed
in this handbook. We therefore reserve the
right to alter specications as materials and
conditions demand.
Dealers are not agents of Swift Group
Limited (“Swift”) and have absolutely no
authority to bind the manufacturer by
any express or implied undertaking or
representation.
Note: To register your warranty, please use
the Connect Direct Registration process, by
doing so you are agreeing that you have had
the details of the warranty and the annual

no way aects your statutory rights under the
Consumer Rights Act.
Your Coach-built motorhome has four
warranties:
Base Vehicle Warranty – provided by Fiat
Your vehicle is a panel van conversion
motorhome which utilises a Fiat base vehicle.
For a panel van conversion motorhome, Swift
takes a panel van as supplied by Fiat and ts
out the interior of the van for habitation. Fiat
provides a manufacturer’s warranty for the
base vehicle as supplied to Swift by them.
For any issues with the base vehicle warranty

SERVICE INSPECTION
Annual service / inspection record
In order to comply with the warranty, you must
have your motorhome inspected and serviced
in accordance with the warranty.
We highly recommend that you have your
Motorhome serviced by a Swift Group
Approved Service Centre who have direct
access to our online Customer Service
system, Connect. This system provides them
with the ability to order approved parts and
ensure that any product upgrades which
may be available for your Motorhome can be
oered to you and carried out as part of the
service. In the unfortunate event that an issue
requires attention under warranty then a Swift
Group Approved Service Centre are able to
submit a warranty claim to the Swift Group
for processing, and deal with the issue for
you from start to nish. All of our Swift Group
Approved Service Centres are provided with up
to date technical information and have access
to current repair methods giving you peace
of mind that any defect has been repaired
eectively.
It is important that the owner’s handbook
is stamped on the appropriate page by the
authorised Swift Group Service Centre.
Failure to do this will invalidate the warranty and
the transfer of the warranty on the change of
ownership.
The inspection should take approximately two
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 carried out.
Just as the engine/gearbox/roadwheels need
regular servicing by your chassis dealer, so
there are components in your conversion that
need regular maintenance by your motorhome
dealer.
These include the gas and electrical systems
and the seals in the bodywork. Your dealer will
complete the record in this handbook to show
that the work has been carried out.
1. Damp and lamination test.
2. Chassis and chassis to body security.
3. Motorhome step.
4. Road lights, wiring and reectors.
5. Internal lights and 12V DC system.
