Coupling To A Towing Vehicle - GO2 Rangierhilfe RH 1 Mode D'emploi Et Instructions De Montage

Move the slide switch on the remote control to the "Off" posi-

tion to switch off the remote control and the manoeuvring
assistant.
The slide switch also acts as an "Emergency Stop"
switch.
After manoeuvring, apply the parking brake first and then
disengage the drive rollers from the tyres.

Coupling to a towing vehicle

The manoeuvring assistant allows a caravan to be coupled to a
towing vehicle with millimetric precision. However, this requires
care and a degree of practice.
Following the operating instructions, move the caravan close to
the towing vehicle (apply parking brake and engage gear). In
order to position the caravan precisely, press the appropriate
direction button briefly and repeatedly until the caravan's coup-
ling is located precisely over the ball coupling on the towing ve-
hicle. Then couple the caravan to the vehicle by lowering it at
the support wheel in the usual manner.
Prepare the caravan for towing in the usual way.
The caravan must not be towed with the drive rollers
engaged.
Maintenance
Keep drive elements clear of coarse road dirt. When cleaning
the caravan, spray the manoeuvring assistant with a water
hose to remove mud etc. Make sure that no stones, twigs etc.
are trapped in it. The control unit does not require servicing.
The remote control must be kept in a dry place.
Every year (or before overwintering), clean the manoeuvring
assistant as described above, dry it and spray the drive as-
sembly guides lightly with spray oil or similar water-repellent
lubricants. Do not put lubricant on the rollers or the tyres.
Engage and disengage the drive assemblies a few times to
allow the lubricant to penetrate all the guides. Do not park the
caravan with the drive rollers engaged.
To prevent the battery from becoming totally discharged dur-
ing long periods of inactivity it must be disconnected and re-
charged before using again. Charge the caravan battery before
starting up.
It is extremely easy for you or your caravan dealer to perform
the checking and maintenance of your manoeuvring assistant
during the annual inspection of your caravan. In case of doubt,
please contact your dealer.
Checks
– Check the installation, wiring and connections for damage at
regular intervals. The drive assemblies must be able to move
freely, and the spring must automatically return them to the
safe idle position when they are disengaged. If this is not the
case, check the drive assemblies for dirt or corrosion on their
guides, cleaning them if necessary. Undo all moving parts as
required and oil or spray with a spray oil (such as WD40) to
ensure that the equipment moves correctly and provides the
full range of movement.
– After the annual inspection, check whether all motors react
properly to the buttons on the remote control.
– At least every 2 years, an expert must check the manoeuvring
assistant for rust, check that detachable parts are firmly
attached, and check that all safety-related parts are in good
working order.

Troubleshooting
Before calling customer service, please check the following:
Are the batteries in the remote control in perfect condition?
Is the caravan battery in perfect condition and fully charged?
Please note that battery performance can deteriorate consider-
ably at cold ambient temperatures.
Perform a reset by disconnecting the battery briefly (approx.
10 seconds).
If the fault cannot be rectified, please contact your dealer.
Tuning the electronic control unit to the
radio remote control
The remote control and the control unit are tuned to each
other in the factory.
If the control unit or the remote control is replaced, they must
be tuned to each other again in accordance with the instruc-
tions below.
Check that installation has been carried out in accordance with
the installation instructions, and make sure that the drive rollers
are not engaged. Check that the battery is properly connected
and in good condition, and that the control unit is being sup-
plied with 12 V.
Press and hold the reset button (k) on the control unit
(red LED – j – flashes slowly), and after approx. 5 sec the
LED (j) flashes rapidly. Release the reset button and within
10 sec press and hold button (c) – caravan reverse – on the
remote control, at the same time switching the remote control
on using the slide switch (a).
