Heater installation
72
Find a suitable location for the heater.
Space for the heater:
• Make sure to have sufficient space at all sides of the heater. See Fig. 3;
• The heater must be fastened at a location in the vehicle which can with-
stand a weight of 35 kg;
• All parts above the water crossing level (specified for the vehicle);
• Possibility to remove the heater;
• Possibility to access and remove the housing cover with inlet interfaces of
the heater.
We recommend installing the heater on the exterior of the vehicle to save
space.Please also see chapter 6.6, "Additional information for exterior in-
stallation".
The information contained in chapter 6.7, "Additional information for in-
terior installation" must also be observed for installation within the vehicle.
The installation location should always be protected against splash water and
possible soiling.
Orientation of the heater:
The heater has to be mounted in a horizontal position (tolerance ± 5º),
with exhaust outlet and cooling air outlet port pointing downwards.
See Fig. 4.
IMPORTANT
Make sure that after installation the casing of the heater is not in contact
with any parts of the vehicle body. Ensure that all moving parts can move
easily. A failure to do this may result in the hot air fan, cooling air fan or
another part blocking.
