The windows in the motorhome are most often made of plastic. They are therefore quite vulnerable to breakage. Roof windows are extra vulnerable and can be broken by strong winds. I therefore recommend that you always close the roof windows when leaving the motorhome.
Roof windows
- Roof windows are most often opened by twisting the crank. On models with a lever, the lever is released by pressing the oval button.
- Each sunroof has a blackout feature that is used at night. It retracts from the side of the sunroof.
- When driving, the blackout should not be fully retracted for window ventilation. The blackout is not to be 100% retracted even in intense sunlight.
- Each sunroof has an insect screen, it retracts from the side of the sunroof similar to the blackout.
- Roof windows should be closed while driving.
Side windows
- The side windows are opened by turning the black latches. The flaps are fused on some models and a small round knob needs to be pushed in.
- Most often, the shutters are opened by tilting them outwards from the bottom upwards. In some cases the side windows are also sliding.
- The side windows can be opened to the ventilators by securing the middle flap.
- Each side window has a blackout for night or against the sun. The blackout blinds can be pulled out either from above or below.
- The side windows have insect screens, extending most often from the top of the side window.
- The side windows should be closed when driving.
