*It charges with one day driving.
- Q、How long can a FF heater work?
- A、You don't have to worry about fuel for the heater. It is automatically filled from the car’s fuel tank. If you use it on full power, it consumes less than 1 liter but the fan consumes battery power. When we rent a car , the battery is full but it is dead within 1 or 2 days without the engine on.
It depends on how long you drive so we recommend you turn it off when you sleep.
*When you use it, please set the dial nearly full. If you set the temperature low, the thermostat works frequently and battery is easily run down.
*If the sub-battery is dead, the car battery is different so the engine can be started.

- A、Sunlight, Zil520, Zil, NewCordeBunks, and CordeRundy are equipped with room air conditioner.
It can be used at all times.

*If you use the room with your feet on the ground, you will be charged for sterilization and cleaning fee of 16,500 JPY (including tax).
- Q、Where should we park and stay?
- A、You can park wherever you want and stay but if you are a beginner, campsites or roadside stations or spa parking lots are also a good choice. (You need permission)
There are charges if you stay at campsites but preparation and putting away dishes or garbage, bath and bathroom are easy and comfortable so it is also a good choice. What's more, they have external 100V power so you can use electric devices.
*Using chairs, tables and stuff at roadside stations or parking lots is a breach of manners. Please do not do it.

We will soon prepare private campsites with great scenery for individual groups. Please look forward to it!
