Close the drain cocks. To do so, turn the cap (Fig. 160) in a clockwise
direction and set the rocking lever (Fig. 161) in a horizontal position.
Switch on the 12 V power supply on the panel.
Set all the water taps to "Hot" and open them. The water pump is turned
on. The warm water pipes are filled with water.
Keep the water taps open until the water flowing out of the water taps
has no bubbles in it. This is the only way to ensure that the boiler is full
of water.
Close all water taps.
Switch off the boiler.
Open the drain cocks. To do so, turn the cap (Fig. 160) in an anticlock-
wise direction and set the rocking lever (Fig. 161) in a vertical position.
Check whether the water has been drained completely from the boiler
(approx. 7-10 litres).
For further information, see the separate manufacturer's instruction man-
ual and observe the maintenance instructions found in chapter 12.
Depending on the model, the temperature of the convectors in the bed area
can be controlled separately. A stopcock and throttle are installed in the ve-
hicle for this purpose.
The flow to the convectors in the bed area is controlled with the stopcock.
The flow of the bypass line in the bed area is controlled with the throttle. The
bypass line protects the fresh water pipes in the bed area from frost and
maintains the circulation of heat even if the line to the convectors is closed.
If there is a risk of frost, check that the throttle is slightly open to prevent
the fresh water pipes from freezing.
