Installation
instructions
The installation and repair
of the appliance is only to
be carried out by an ex-
pert.
Read the installation in-
structions carefully prior to
starting work and observe the
instructions!
Intended use
This appliance is designed for
installation in mobile homes,
caravans and boats. Other
forms of use are also possible
after consultation with Truma.
Approval
Declaration of conformity:
The Trumatic C has been
DVGW-tested and complies
with the EC gas appliance
guideline (90/396/EEC) as
well as the associated EC
guidelines. The following CE
Product Ident. No. is available
for EU countries:
C 3402: CE-0085AS0121
C 6002: CE-0085AS0122
The heater is approved for in-
stallation in rooms frequented
by people (in motor vehicles)
and for operation while the
vehicle is moving.
It is not approved for installa-
tion in buses and vehicles for
the transportation of haz-
ardous goods. If the appli-
ance is to be installed in spe-
cial vehicles, always observe
the respectively valid regula-
tions.
In Germany, for inspection or
testing of the vehicle accord-
ing to Sections 19, 20 and 21
of StVZO, the installation is
also to be inspected. For sub-
sequent installation proceed
as specified in Section 19 of
StVZO.

Regulations
Any alteration to the appli-
ance (including exhaust duct
and cowl) or the use of spare
parts and accessories which
are important for the func-
tioning of the heater and
which are not original Truma
parts, as well as the non-ob-
servance of the installation
and operating instructions,
shall lead to the cancelling of
the guarantee and exclusion
of liability claims. It also be-
comes illegal to use the appli-
ance, and in some countries
this even makes it illegal to
use the vehicle.
The operating pressure for
the gas supply is 30 mbar
(or 28 mbar butane/37 mbar
propane) or 50 mbar and
must correspond to the
operating pressure of the
appliance (see name plate).
The first year of operation
must be marked on the
name plate.
When installing the appli-
ance always observe the
technical and administra-
tive rules and regulations
of the country in which
the vehicle is to be regis-
tered for the first time.
In Germany, gas appliances,
cylinder mountings, pipe
routing as well as approval
and leak test must comply
with the DVGW form G 607
for liquid gas systems in vehi-
cles.
For vehicles used for com-
mercial purposes, the rele-
vant accident prevention reg-
ulations issued by the profes-
sional associations are to be
respected (BGV D 34).
For further details on the
rules and regulations in the
respective country of desti-
nation, please contact our
agencies abroad (refer to
operating instructions).
Exhaust ducts and cowls
must be routed in such a way
that exhaust gas does not en-
ter the inside area of the vehi-
cle. Parts of the vehicle which
are important for operation
are not to be adversely affect-
ed. The opening of the ex-
haust duct must point to the
side or upwards.
Warm air distribution:
Heating air intake vents must
be arranged in such a way
that under normal operating
conditions exhaust gas from
the vehicle engine and heater
appliance cannot enter the in-
side of the vehicle. It must be
ensured by means of con-
struction design that the
heating air introduced into
the vehicle is not polluted
(e.g. by oil vapour). This is
achieved, for example, with
air heaters with circulating air
operation, both for interior in-
stallations and for external in-
stallations. (In heaters with
fresh air operation the fresh
air is not to come from the
engine compartment or from
the vicinity of the exhaust or
the exhaust outlet of the
heater).
Notes on installation
in boats
Installation in boats must be
carried out in accordance
with EN ISO 10239 („Liquid
gas systems; small water-
craft“) or the technical and
administrative regulations of
the country in which the ves-
sel was registered for the first
time.
In Germany, the „Technical
specifications“ of the DVGW
form G 608 must be observed
for sports boats, and for com-
mercial inland shipping the
„guidelines for construction,
fitting, testing and operation
of liquid gas systems for do-
mestic purposes on boats,
within the scope of inland
shipping“ (BGR 146) must be
observed. According to these
guidelines the liquid gas sys-
tem is only to be installed by
fitters recognised by the in-
land shipping liability insur-
ance association (Berufs-
genossenschaft) and is only
to be checked and tested by
experts of this association. In
other countries always ob-
serve the respectively valid
regulations.
For further details on the
rules and regulations in the
respective country of desti-
nation, please contact our
agencies abroad (refer to
operating instructions).
Further installation instruc-
tions are provided in the
Truma Installation Instruction
for Boat Heating Systems.

Choice of location
Always install the appliance
and its exhaust duct in such
a way that it is always easily
accessible for service work
and can be removed and in-
stalled easily.
For evenly distributed heating
of the vehicle, the heater
should be installed as near to
the
centre
as possible, e.g.
in a wardrobe or in storage
space with sufficient height.
It is to be installed in such a
way that the air distribution
ducts can be routed with ap-
proximately the same
lengths.
For this purpose cut out an
opening of at least 480 x
480 mm or remove furniture
panelling.
Attention:
To avoid the risk
of possible injury to persons
through the heater becoming
loose in the event of an acci-
dent, the upper cover of the
built-in cupboard (Fig. C: 30)
can be bolted flush with the
heater to the other furniture
items. Or crosswise to the di-
rection of travel (particularly
with installations at the rear),
a stable furniture bracket
must be installed in front of
(next to) the heater (Fig. C:
31). For this purpose a rigid
strip (min. 30 x 50 mm) or
plate can be attached to a
stable furniture bracket for in-
sertion at a height of approx.
200 mm above the floor.
Attention:
There is to be no
heat-sensitive material stored
beneath the appliance (no ca-
bles, carpets etc.), as high
temperatures can be reached
at the bottom of the appli-
ance and in the surrounding
area!
To prevent damage to electri-
cal components in the appli-
ance, make sure never to at-
tach electrical leads or water
pipes to the insulation of the
appliance.
Do not install the wall cowl
on the side with a canopy,
particularly in caravans. In
such cases install a roof cowl
instead.
For caravans with a roof cov-
er there is a special cowl ex-
tension available as well as a
double-skin leadthrough (re-
fer to operating instructions).
The cowl must be placed in
such a way that exhaust gas
cannot find its way into the
vehicle interior. For this rea-
son, choose a location where
there are no opening win-
dows, skylights or ventilation
openings directly above the
cowl or for 30 cm on either
side. If this is not possible, a
warning plate must be placed
on the inside of the window
(or skylight) stating that it
must be kept closed while the
heater is operating. In this
case refrigerator ventilation
ducts must be tight-sealed
from the interior of vehicle.
