10.2.5 Alde heating and hot water system*
The Compact 3020 HE heater is a hot-water heating system which
heats hot water separately (contents: 8.5 l). It is possible to heat up the
heating system without filling the hot-water heater with fresh water.
Location
• In the wardrobe.
Important information
• Please read the separate operating instructions carefully before
initial operation of the heating system.
• Always turn off the main switch for the heating system whenever
the vehicle is not in use.
• If there is danger of frost, always drain off the fresh water in the
hot-water heater
(see 8.2).
• You must not start the heating if the device has not been filled
with glycol.
• To make the best possible use of the convection principle, the air
must not be prevented from circulating throughout the caravan,
e.g. behind the back cushions, winter ventilation slots, in the bed
frame and behind the storage cupboards.
• A 12V / 230V connection is required to start the device.

When in the idle position, the device shows which heating functions
have been activated; the background lighting of the display is off.
After two minutes, the operating device automatically switches from
the set position to the idle position if no button has been pressed or
if the idle position has been set using the arrows.
For further detailed information on operation, handling
and maintaining the hot-water heating system, please refer

Check the amount of liquid in the expansion tank at
regular intervals. When the heating is off, the liquid
should be approx. 1 cm above the "Min" mark.
