SAFETY
Your safety is important to us - which is why this important topic should not be missing from our checklist.

- A toolbox with the most common contents for minor repairs or as an aid.
- At least two wheel chocks to level your motorhome if necessary.
- Spare light bulbs will help if your headlights or lighting are faulty so that you can replace them straight away.
- A storm strap for the awning reliably protects it from damage and destruction during storms.
- In some countries, warning signs on rear carriers are required by law and it is therefore mandatory to have them with you.
TECHNOLOGY & SUPPLY
Nothing is more annoying than technology going on strike or even failing - with a few very simple tips, you are well prepared and can enjoy your trip to the full.
