11.5.3 Truma
A lint filter (Fig. 200,1) for the air circulation suction system is at the front of the
air conditioning unit. The lint filter must be cleaned at regular intervals, at least
twice a year however, and replaced if necessary.
The condensation drain is under the floor of the vehicle. Keep the drain hose
free from dirt, leaves or similar to allow the condensation to be drained.
11.6 Winter care
De-icing salt damages the underbody and the parts open to water spray. We
recommend that you wash the vehicle more frequently during wintertime.
Mechanical and surface treated parts and the underside are under particular
strain, and should therefore be cleaned thoroughly.
11.6.1 Preparations
„
Check the vehicle for paint and rust damage. Repair damage as neces-
sary.
„
Make certain that water cannot penetrate the automatic floor ventilation
system and the heater.
„
Use a wax-based rust inhibitor to protect the metal parts of the underbody.
„
Use appropriate protection for external painted surfaces.

Z
If there is any risk of frost, always run heater at a minimum of 15 °C. Switch
the circulation fan (if there is one) to automatic. In the case of extreme
external temperatures, the furniture flaps and doors should be left slightly
open. The inflowing warm air can help prevent the freezing of water pipes,
for example, and counteract the formation of condensation in the storage
spaces.
Z
If there is any risk of frost, cover the outside surface of the windows with
winter insulation mats.
Z
Keep the waste gas vent, skylights with forced ventilation and mushroom-
shaped vents free of snow. For a roof vent, use a vent extension which is
at least 10 cm (4 inch) long.
