Preamble
Be sure to read this guide in its entirety, it contains important information on how to install and operate your SavvyLevel.
This user manual applies to all Savvylevel® S5 RV Leveller models (referred to as Savvy5 in this guide). Throughout this guide we will make a reference to an ‘RV’ that equally applies to Caravan, Campers, Trailers, Motorhomes, 4WDs, Vans and Food Trucks i.e., all Recreational Vehicles.
Introduction
Figure 1 Figure 2
Savvy5 solution is a fully integrated levelling system designed for caravans, campers, trailers, motorhomes, vans, 4WDs and food trucks.
A small, lightweight device installed in your RV provides real-time (and silky-smooth display motion) levelling information so you can effortlessly level your RV, all from the comfort of your seat.
The Savvy5 solution comprises a precision level detection Bluetooth® device, Figure 1, mounted internally within your RV, that communicates with your Apple or Android smart phone/tablet, Figure 2.
It is easy to install and use. It boasts an amazing accuracy of ±0.1° across its operating temperature range. Once installed, it only requires you to enter dimensions of your specific RV and capture/save your preferred level.
There are 2 Apps available:
- SavvyCV5 to be used with caravans, campers and trailers.
- SavvyMH5 to be used with motorhomes, vans, 4WDs & food trucks.
Both Apps display your RV’s Pitch and Roll in both degrees and height in millimeters or inches.
SavvyCV5 provides a feature that enables users to record their preferred hitching and unhitching height (height of the A-frame at the release point from tow vehicle).
In addition, SavvyMH5 displays a ‘Top View’ window that lets you know each wheel’s adjustment requirement.
‘Block Type’ functionality, when enabled, will display the number of blocks to be used when adjusting Roll.
