z Lay the 230 V power cable in such a way that the cable cannot be frozen or be
damaged (e.g. during snow removal).
z Use a winter awning.
z When it is snowing heavily, clear the roof of the vehicle of snow regularly. A few
centimetres of powdery snow serves as insulation, but wet snow quickly
becomes a heavy burden.
z Before embarking on the return journey, remove all the snow from the roof to
avoid impeding vehicles behind you with a "snow flag".

trouble.
