Installing the heater
• The heater is fastened on the load-bearing parts of the vehicle frame
using brackets and M8 T-bolts which are integrated in the heater guide
rails.
• To prevent breaks within the heater and noises, it is necessary to use vi-
bration dampers.
The M8 T-bolts and nuts are tightened with a torque of 22 to 25 Nm.
• Mount the heaters, brackets and vibration dampers so that the damp-
ers are compressed by the weight of the heater.
• See Webasto product catalogue for different kinds of fixation brackets.
• At least 4 fixation points.
• Fixation of the heater only on the top or on one of the sides is not suf-
ficient.
• Install the heater in such a way that it will not fall from the vehicle in
case the vibration dampers fail.
