While UKCS and its members are very good, they are not always available at 11 at night when I am on a campsite and my fridge/water pump/mains electrics suddenly go off. My Haynes Manual, on the other hand, will always be available and while it has not been "my favourite bedtime read" for quite a few years now, I always know where I can find it in a hurry.
I just wish a lot more people would make it their bedtime read for a few weeks after they buy (and preferably before they buy) their first caravan. If they did, I would certainly feel a lot more comfortable about sleeping on a caravan park within a 100 feet of their pitch. 
For any person that is using 12v or mains power, water and/or gas, has a fridge and/or a cooker, tows or drives their camping units, the Haynes Manuals are a must if only to give you a basic knowledge of the workings of your camping equipment and for the safety of yourself, your family and those that are camping around you.
