WINTER STORAGE CHECKLIST
* Handbrake off
* Steadies down
* Wheels chocked
* Hitchlock and wheelclamp fitted
* Toilet flush emptied (drained)
* Toilet blade left slightly ajar to prevent sealing against the rubber
* Water system drained
* Leave taps open in the central position
* Connect to a/c if possible as the current will keep circuitry free from microscopic moisture & keep the battery charged
* Remove the battery from the van if a/c connection is not possible and store elsewhere (not in the house) connected to a trickle charger
* If upholstery/cushions are to be left in the van, pull them away from the edges of the van to avoid dampness from condensation
* Leave cupboard doors and drawers open to allow air circulation.
* Clean fridge, freezer and leave slightly ajar
* Clean oven & hob
* Close either blinds or curtains (some don’t like to leave the blinds closed over fear of stretching the springs)
