– Do not operate the unit anywhere where
flammable vapours or dust can form, e.g.
in the vicinity of a fuel, coal, wood or grain
storage facility or similar.
– A diesel heating system always requires
more power than a comparable gas heating
system. If there is a requirement for autarky
of the same duration (service life without
external power supply), Truma recommends
investigating the possibility of retrofitting a
larger and / or second battery.
Obligations of the operator / vehicle owner
– The operator is responsible for the water
with which the unit’s boiler is filled and for
its quality.
– The vehicle owner is responsible for correct
operation of the appliance.
– The installer or vehicle owner must affix the
supplied yellow sticker with the warning
information in a location in the vehicle
where it is clearly visible to all users (e.g. the
wardrobe door). Missing stickers can be
requested from Truma.
– The system must comply with the respect-
ive regulations of the country in which it is
used. National regulations and rules must be
followed.
– The exhaust system must be inspected by a
qualified technician at regular intervals, not
exceeding 2 years.
– If the heater is not being used, always drain
off the water if there is a risk of frost. No
claims may be made under the warranty for
damage caused by frost.
Safety instructions
In the event of a leak in the heater, fuel
supply or exhaust duct:
– Switch off the unit,
– Open windows and doors,
– Have the entire system inspected by an
expert.
Guaranteeing a safe operating
environment
– The unit may be operated only with appropri-
ate Truma control panels and accessories.
– Danger of toxic exhaust fumes. The heater’s
exhaust can be toxic in enclosed spaces (e.g.
garages, workshops). If the vehicle is parked
in closed rooms:
– Shut off the fuel supply to the heater
– Deactivate the time switch
– Switch off the heater at the control panel.
– If the cowl has been placed near or directly
beneath an opening window, the appliance
must be equipped with an automatic shut-off
device in order to prevent operation with the
window open.
– Heat-sensitive objects (e.g. spray cans) or
flammable materials/liquids must not be
stored in the same compartment where the
heater is installed because, under certain
conditions, this area may be subject to el-
evated temperatures.
– Keep flammable materials away from the
area in front of the warm air outlets. Never
block the warm air outlets.
– The openings for circulated air intake, the
installation compartment and the space
around the unit must be kept free of ob-
stacles so that the unit does not overheat.
– The cowl and the combustion air infeed must
be kept free of dirt (e.g. slush, ice, leaves, etc.)
at all times.
– Danger from hot surfaces and exhaust gas.
Do not touch the area around the wall cowl
and do not lean any objects against the wall
cowl or the vehicle.
