Heating element S 5004 and S 3004
(model/series-specific)
-
S 5004
- S 3004
Place of installation
- In the clothes cupboard or chest of drawers.
Before first use
• Several air outlet nozzles have been built into the caravan. Pipes
lead the hot air to the air outlet nozzles. Turn the nozzles so that
the hot air is expelled where you want it.
• Check whether the flue is unobstructed. Any covers must al-
ways be removed.
• Before the first ignition, ensure that the batteries in the automa-
tic ignitor are working properly.
Operation: (S 3004 / S 5004 with automatic igniter)
• Open the bottle valve and the quick-close valve in the gas line.
• Turn the operation handle
j
to the thermo-stat position 1-5.
• Press the operation handle
j
down until it locks. The ignition
is automatic from this position, until the flame burns. The igni-
tion spark is audible. The control light on the automatic ignitor
k
blinks during ignition.
• Hold the operation handle in for up to 10 sec-onds, so that the
ignition fuse kicks in.
• If the gas line is filled with air, it can take up to a minute until the
gas is ready to burn. Hold the operation lever
j
in during this
period, until the flame burns.
You are not permitted to operate the heating system
while driving.
Exception:
when using a licensed gas flow monitor
(e.g. Truma-SecuMotion or Duo-Control CS).
Pictures may vary somewhat from the equip-
ment on your caravan!
Never re-ignite before 3 minutes have passed. Other-
wise, there is a danger of deflagration! This also applies
when the flame on an already operational heating ele-
ment extin-guishes and is reignited.
