Electrical floor temperature control system
(special accessory, model-specific
)
The heater mat is located in the central walking area of the floor. It is 60
cm wide; the length depends on the type of vehicle. This heat-ing
system is not meant to heat the room; instead, it reduces the loss
of heat via the floor.
Switching the electrical floor heating 24V on and off
The switch is integrated in the control panel for the light control system
or located near the rocker switch for the hot-water heater.
Technical data
Voltage 24V~ from its own 230V/24V transformer.
Depending on the length of cable mounted, there is a power con-
sumption of approx. 56 W/mtr.
To prevent local hot spots, do not place objects for a
longer period of time on the floor if the floor heating
system has been turned on. Do not drill any holes in
the floor or screw in any screws.
Due to construction (the heating foil is glued under the
PVC flooring) slight outlines may be visible. However,
these are not noticeable under a fitted carpet (model/
series-specific). The electrical floor heating is opera-
ted by means of the control switch marked with the
appropriate symbol. Depending on the layout / type of
vehicle, the transformer for the electrical floor heating
is located either at the front or rear end of the vehicle.
It must not be covered when loading the caravan.
Danger: heat build-up!
When it is in operation, the electrical floor heating
must not be covered up in the middle of the storage
space under the transverse seating bench.
The danger of overheating also exists outside the sto-
wage spaces. It can be caused by insulating objects
or the use of unsuitable carpets/fitted carpeting.
The electric floor heating is not meant to be operated
continuously. Switch the floor heating off whenever
the camper is not being used.
