After putting the electric system into operation, the function of the
residual current device must be checked. After voltage has been
applied to the switch
j
and it is on (set to I-ON) it must set off
when you press the test button
k
.
The ro
cker switch
k
(p.114)
jumps down; after it has successful
-
ly been checked it must be switched back up to the "On" setting.
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.
The tripping time for the residual current device (RCD)
with a residual current of 30 mA is less than 0.1 seconds.
When the residual current device has been set off (even
when testing) the customised settings in all mains-operated
devices are lost and the default settings made by the ma-
nufacturer will apply again.
f the automatic circuit breaker has gone off (other than if you
have switched it) you must wait a short while before switching
it on again.
- If the automatic circuit breaker remains active, there was only
an overload.
Repairs must not be carried out on the residual current
device.
A residual current device does not guarantee any protec
-
tion against the danger from an electric shock. It does not
protect against possible electrical accidents.

Residual current device
The standard version of your vehicle is equipped with a residual
current device that will interrupt the electric circuit in case of
a possible residual current. Should there be a malfunction, the
passenger circuit breaker opens the entire 230 V circuit.
