Hello we have a Bailey Rimini 2016 we have used it for first time last week all went well.
We took it to storage site put the van in the barn using the motor mover switched off mover switched off all switches in van but noticed the control panel clock was still on so rang dealer to ask if it had its own battery or was it pulling current from leisure battery. Good question he said. But could not give us a answer. So any help out there we are going back out in it next week so can't see a clock draining battery. But thought I would pass it about. To see if anybody has any thoughts. As far as I know the caravan does not have a total shut down switch. I even thought off disconnecting the leisure battery. Many thanks

Do you mean the Truma (square shaped) control?? If so press and hold the button for about 5-6 seconds.

Yes that's the one the control panel which sets the heating water temperature and choice of gas or electric or mix.
Thank you for replying back at van Monday. Will make it first job.
