Topaz Owner's manual Empty Topaz Owner's manual

The Auto Sleeper owner's manual which came with our recently acquired 2001 Topaz is dated 1999, and seems to contain a number of glaring innacuracies.
Is this the correct version of the manual, or is there one nearer to the date of the vehicle ?

Off the top of my head:
Manual says there are 4 seatbelts (there are 3)
Manual says the leisure battery is under driver's seat (it's in the engine bay)
Manual says "be careful not to flatten the battery by running the fridge off 12V with engine off" (I believe the 12V supply is only live when the alternator is running, so this is imposible).
Manual says Carver heater (Truma is fitted).
Manual says Thetford C3 (C2 fitted).
etc

Can't fault AS build quality, but the manual is a bit disappointing (or do I simply hae the wrong one?)

Hi there

Our 1998 Topaz has four seat belts. The fourth is hidden under the bench set and becomes visible when yo slid he bend set out.

The Fridge does not run off 12v with the engine off

The battery is in the engine bay

Our instructions for the double bed are confusing.

Is the cushion on the bench attached or can you slide it towards the drivers seat?

I have not checked the manual about the fridge but I did check using the wiring diagrams.
