HI All,

We have a new folding camper and it has come with 3 thickish plastic 'tarps' - one under each mattress and one folded and packed in with the curtains. I am assuming these are wet packs but what do we do with them? I would have thought that having a piece of waterproof plastic under the mattress would just make perspiration/condensation/dampness a problem, so are these 'tarps' for covering beds etc when packing away wet?

Thanks in advance.

After the first (and so far only) time of using the wet pack, we pulled the sheets through the bedroom pods.  whilst it did the job, it didn't look right to me.

On seeking advice from the dealer, we were told to drop the bedroom pods then roll the sheet over the top of that.  have to say, that having done that to try it out, it does look a lot neater

The plastic you mention fits on to the underside of the bedboards once they are folded over.

The clips hook on to the edge of the plywood. Ours fits the r/hand bed the first bed board to fold over. It has holes in it to slip over the two metal uprights.

 Hope this makes sense. We have actually got two, so we fit them to both beds. I believe it's to stop water dripping on to the bed board when the canvas sits on top of it.

Yep you got it for the bed boards. Our fiesta has a fixed plastic cover that folds out over the seat if required similar to the one that covers the mattress.

It may depend on the age of your unit as our old fiesta didn't have a cover for the seat.

It's strange that you haven't got a hemmed pocket on the bottom of your kitchen window
