12V switch on panel mystery

Hello to all. I'm new to this site and forum and a happy new owner of a 2009 Eriba 320.
I started reading the manual as it's the first time I've ever owned a caravan and everything is new to me. I'm just finding my way around and have worked out most of the things that puzzled me initially, but I've come across something that I can't seem to solve myself. As I only bought it last week I am trying to make it winter and frost proof.

Reading the manual there is a section 8.3 12V POWER SUPPLY - the last line of which reads "The 12V power supply can be cut off with the 12V switch on the panel"
I can't seem to find this switch or even the panel, I've begun to realise that perhaps the reference is to some other Eriba model. But as I was emptying the water containers and pipes I needed to disconnect the battery, so started to look for this switch. Can anyone shed any light please.

On my 310 there is a 12V on/off switch on the side of the wardrobe near the light switches.

Hi Linda and welcome.
The 12v supply isolation switch is on the wardrobe side of the newer models (2009 onwards). The supply is automatically cut off whenever the caravan is connected to a towing vehicle. The switch allows it to be reactivated.
On earlier Eribas the power supply may be controlled and distributed by a power pack SE. It sounds like this is what you have and it is usually situated under one of the bench seats. The switch will be on its side.

IMG_0789.JPG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)Thank you everyone for such a warm welcome. Thank you PhilipM and Frantone for your replies. I have just been to check the suggested locations and still unable to identify a switch. I traced the cables from the battery terminals (battery located within blanket box next to wardrobe) they leave the blanket box and enter the base of the wardrobe which I accessed by removing a cover secured by 4 screws. Still following the red and brown battery cables no switch along the length. The cables leave the wardrobe base and are secured within and behind cable conduit into BIP30.65100.84 next to the dual switch (c16 ) single switch (multi 9) there is a small grey plastic block with 12V -DC printed on it. Doesn't seem to be a switch though, I will take a pic and upload it.
