Safety regulations for the operation
The diesel-powered part of the heater must not be operated:
– at filling stations and other refueling points.
To advice to this requirement the self-adhesive label with the
text ’’Switch off heater before refueling!“, delivered with each
heater, is to be affixed next to the filler neck.
– if the heater or its exhaust outlet is in locations where
inflammable vapors or dust may form (e.g. close to fuel,
plastic, coal, wood dust or cereal storage facilities or similar).
– if the heater or its exhaust outlet is located close to inflammable
materials for example dry grass and leaves, cartons, paper etc.
– in enclosed areas (e.g. garages, hall without an exhaust extrac-
tion system), not even if the pre-selection timer or Tele Start is
used.
– if the exhaust outlet of the heater is partial or fully obstructed
(e.g. by soil or snow, as it may occur while move the vehicle
backwards).
The heater must:
– be shut down by removing the fuse in the event of extensive
smoke development, unusual combustion noises or fuel odors.
The heater must not be used again until personnel trained by
Valeo have examined it.
ATTENTION:
After an electrical protection device has tripped (overcurrent pro-
tection device, insulation guard), the heater must be disconnected
from the power supply and only put back into operation if the cau-
se has been identified and remedied by appropriately qualified per-
sonnel (see 3.1.).
3.3.
Emergency stop / de-energizing
The Thermo H heater itself does not have an emergency stop system.
It‘s control and power supply is integrated into the vehicle's electrical
system.
It is therefore the responsibility of the user to inform himself before the
commisioning of the heater in the vehicle how the heater can be
successfully de-energized if necessary (maintenance, service work,
abnormal behavior etc.).
Fire and explosion hazard!
