• Check the level of the battery fluid regularly (acid batteries);
AGM-batteries require no maintenance, but must be continuo
-
usly recharged.
• Check that the battery clamps are secure and remove any
layers of oxide.
• Turn off the battery circuit breaker (red key) if the ancillary
battery is not being used for a longer period of time (2 weeks
or more). The standby current used continuously by some
electrical devices discharges the habitation battery. Even if
the battery circuit breaker (red key) is turn off, the battery can
still be charged by the battery charger (trickle charging).
• Should the battery be removed, isolate the positive terminal (to
prevent short circuits when turning on the motor).
Battery charger
• The charge operates by means of a sensor or using IU

charging technology, provided the sensor has not been cali

• The air vents in the FIAT dashboard must not be covered up
or closed. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation.
Tank probes
The probe with rods measures the contents of the fresh and
waste water tanks.
• To prevent scaling, never let the water stand too long in the
tanks, especially in the waste and waste water tank.
• Flush the tanks regularly.
230V automatic circuit breaker with an earth leakage circuit
breaker
The 230V automatic circuit breaker supplies and protects the
230V devices.
• To switch off the 230V power supply in the entire system, set
the 230V automatic circuit breaker to “0” (OFF).
Fuses
• Only replace defective fuses after the cause of the defect has
been remedied by a professional electrician.
• The new fuse must have the same amperage as the old one.
