Hello all. Resurrecting this post from the past as still have some questions about the Adria Optima 400b. Have any owners become more knowledgeable regarding the running feature such as pump, water heater, transformer, battery etc.,
I have a manual. Can't remember if I sent it on to people but it still needs to be more specific to the model.
I'm happy to share thoughts and knowledge others in the same boat (caravan 😉)
Worth bearing in mind that generally nearly all the equipment in a caravan is generic and not unique to any particular caravan make or model, and that equipment usually has it's own manual (often far more detailed) from the manufacturer.
The caravan manual is usually little more than selective extracts only 'cut and pasted' from the individual equipment manuals!
Worth identifying the make and model of the fitted equipment and doing some Googling to find specific manuals! Be warned, you may have to stand on your head or poke your head into very odd spaces (mirror or phone camera can help!) to find the equipment ID labels and details!
New caravans and well looked after older ones typically come with a whole bundle of equipment manuals in addition to the caravan user manual, but sadly they do seem to dwindle and vanish over the years with some!
I have just been gifted a 1991 Optima 400 B, and I would really love to get my hands on a handbook as I may need to do some restoration on the little old snailhouse. I's absolutely adorable and me and the missus are already in love with it. Could you send a copy to me too please? george.vida.jr at gmail.com
