Operation via the tow vehicle
When driving, the battery of the tow vehicle takes over the supply
of the 12 V supply if pin 9 of the 13-pin socket system on the tow
vehicle is connected.
Use the main switch on the control panel to switch off 12V operation
(when the caravan is hooked to the car) on longer stopovers and
breaks to conserve power in the car's battery.
When running on 12 volts, the refrigerator only functions if the motor
of the tow vehicle is turned on. Pins 10 and 11 of the 13-pin socket
system.
Always switch off the electric connection between the
tow vehicle and the caravan before hooking the cara
-
van up to a low-voltage supply.
If operation is carried out via the tow vehicle, a maximum
of 2 electrical devices in the caravan can be switched
at the same time using the control panel This is not the
case when a 12v battery system (self sufficient package)
is installed.
This check should be carried out at least once a month to ensure that
the residual current device functions perfectly in case there should be
a fault in the current.
When the FI switch has been switched off (even when
testing) the customised settings in all mains-operated
devices are lost and the default settings made by the
manufacturer will apply again.
Devices that cause it to trip when in use show that there is a fault; they
must be checked and/or repaired by an electrical engineering specialist.
If the automatic circuit breaker has gone off (other than if the Test
function has been used) you must wait a short while before swit
-
ching it on again.
- If the automatic circuit breaker remains active, there was only an
overload.
- If the automatic circuit breaker goes off abruptly again, there is
either a short circuit or an earth fault.
Switching it back on again and again will do no good.
The automatic circuit breaker also goes off when the
rocker switch is held firmly in place.
