Rules for loading:
• Spread the load evenly between the left and
right-hand side of the camper. Heavy or bulky
objects belong in the lower storage compart-
mentsandneartheaxle.
• Ifyourcamperhasatandemaxle:distribute
thecentreofweightbetweenthetwoaxles.
• Never focus the load in the camper to the rear
(dangerofswingingbackandforth).
• Heavy objects should be stowed securely to
prevent them from slipping.
• Lighterobjects(clothing)shouldbestowedin
the wall cupboards.
• You may not always be able to follow the re-
recommended stowing arrangement, because
storage possibilities are distributed throug
hout the entire interior of the camper. If ne-
cessary, stow heavy objects in the base
vehicle.
• Store baggage in the interior in cupboards
and storage compartments.

permissible drawbar load of your
base vehicle.
Providing your base vehicle permits
this and depending on the size of the
camper, you can improve the driving
quality by increasing the drawbar
load.
The lower a vehicle's centre of gravi-
ty is, the better its performance in
curves and on the road.
