Hi,

I have just purchased a Peugeot Boxer Compass 2004 290 SWB hdi.

Longshot but I am looking for an owners manual (if such a thing exists)

Searched the internet and the forum on here, but alas the links I have found are not valid anymore.

Does anyone have any knowledge or links for this manual so I can purchase one?

Many thanks.

Im guessing you mean the habitation side? If so you could try contacting Elddis as it was part of their group at that time.

Spiritburner,

Many thanks for the suggestion, will give it a shot.

Pretty sure this will be a bit of a learning curve for me, might just push buttons and see what happens ;)

Regards

A regular question.
On the habitation side, the toilet is likely to be (not guaranteed) Thetford & you can look up their website. Cooker, microwave etc: all standard across many makes. Ditto heating ie each component has information online.
When we got a 1994 MH in 2003, it only had the separate leaflets & we worked things out, but we got a habitation service done when the fridge wouldn’t work on gas, and found corroded components, a blocked gas heater flue & a perished gas pipe to the cooker. So if nothing else, unless you have a fairly recent habitation certificate, get the gas components checked by a qualified fitter.
You should have the handbook for the vehicle/ cab end of things, but at 21 years old, take it to a good local garage, not a Peugeot franchise.
Enjoy your Motorhome!

Fiona,

Many thanks for the advice, chap I have bought this off is an ex-mechanic (retired and old school) and has had a gas and electrical safety check carried out. Very straight MH on first inspection.

I found a good handover video on YouTube for my model (link below for anyone that needs it), it has shown me what I need to know in terms of what everything does and when to push or pull various buttons and levers :)
