I have recently bought a 2012 Familia 310 with a fixed bed. It has what appears to be a roof vent, there is a vent like cover on the inside and a Perspex cover outside on the roof . My question is, is this meant to open up on the roof as mine appears to be fixed ? Doesn't seem to do anything as it is !! Thanks , Peter !

I've a notion that Lowdhams fitted roof vents to all their new Eribas at one time - presumably to comply with some UK regulations ? I've no idea if they are designed to open or not - but think it's just a vent ?

Automotive Leisure customised a few Eribas in 2014, although the sky light could be opened. Skylights in the roof have never been an official modification from the Hymer factory.

Or you may mean the air vent over the bed space on the lower roof? This does not open up, it is only an air vent and nothing more.

Hi yes, thanks, I do mean the one on the lower roof ! If it doesn't open, how can it be an air vent ?? Confused.com !!

Thanks again, hopefully the rain doesn't get under and into the van !!! Would be interested to hear from other 310 owners ?? Thanks again !

We have the same vent on our 430 and despite multiple washes and heavy rain (incl. storms and high winds) no water has ever entered into the interior of the van through this vent.

Thank you !!

Does the outer part come off for cleaning? thanks.
