Fault finding

Gas operation

Symptom

Cause

When switching on, the heat-
er does not operate.

 

– No 12 V supply voltage.

Check the power supply (operation voltage min. 10.5 V).
Check the Truma UltraRapid HWS fuse (refer to maintenance 
“Fuses”).

When switching on, the heat-
er does not operate and the 
red lamp lights up 
after approx. 30 secs. 

 

– Cowl cover fitted. 

 

– Air in the gas supply.

 

– No gas supply. 

 

– Incorrect gas pressure.

Remove cowl cover and / or clear any obstruction. 
Check gas valves and gas cylinder.
To unlock (and purge air), switch off the appliance, wait 
5 minutes, and switch on again.

Heater operates for a pro-
longed time and then 
the red lamp lights up.

 

– Excess temperature 

thermostat has responded.

Check water level, refill if required (close drain valve).
To unlock, switch off the appliance, wait 5 minutes, and 
switch on again.

Electrical operation

Symptom

Cause

When switching on, the 
heater does not operate.

 

– No 240 V supply voltage.

 

– Excess temperature 

thermostat has responded.

Connect the caravan to the site supply and / or check residual 
current circuit breaker.
Check water level, refill if required (close drain valve).

The electrical heating element is fitted with an excess tem-
perature cut-out. In the event of a fault, switch off at the 
control panel, wait 10 minutes, then switch on again.

Water supply

Symptom

Cause

Water drips from the 
P&T safety valve.

 

– Water pressure to high.

 

– Lime or dirt under the 

P&T safety valve seat.

Check water pressure (max. 400 kPa), use a pressure reduc-
er when connected to central water supply.

Allow the appliance to cool and then slowly raise the test 
lever (Fig. 2a – 4a) to flush the water system and attempt to 
force dirt or foreign matter out of the P&T safety valve seat. 

Replace P&T safety valve. This must be performed only by a 
certified service technician.

When opening the cold 
water tap, hot water 
comes out.

 

– Hot water flows back 

through the cold water 
supply.

Fit a non-return valve in the cold water supply (refer to instal-
lation instructions “Water connection”).

If fault persists, please contact the nearest Dometic Service.
