To turn off the heater set the switch to “auf”. Close the quick release valve
in the kitchen cupboard. The blower continues to run!
In summer the blower can also be used for air circulation.
For this purpose set the switch to cooling mode and select the appropriate
fan power (1 or ½).
It is important not to let snow walls or aprons build up around the vehicle
in order to ensure the heater exhaust gases can escape.
The open space around the heater in the seat box should not be restricted
otherwise good air circulation is not possible. The heating can be powered
by propane, butane or a mixture of both. In winter however only pure
propane should be used as below 0
°
C butane turns to liquid and is no
longer a gas.
Gas Cooker
Switching on: Open the quick release valve on the left of the kitchen
cupboard. Press in the cooker knob and turn to the left.
With the built in piezo ignition ignite the gas (turn red knob clockwise).
Hold down the knob some seconds more once the flame is visible (safety
pilot). If the flame goes out when the knob is released, just repeat the steps
above.
Switching off: Turn the cooker knob to 0. Close the quick release valve in
the kitchen cupboard.
Fridge
The fridge has a volume of 45 litres and can be operated using 220 V, 12
V, und gas. 12 V operation is only possible when driving.
The absorber principle of the fridge ensures fault free operation only when
the vehicle is parked flat, not on a slope.
Gas Operation
: Open the quick release valve in the kitchen cupboard. Set
the gas thermostat above the fridge door to the maximum power setting
and press the red safety pilot knob for around 30 seconds. Now press the
push button (ignition) several times. During ignition and in the following
15 seconds the safety pilot knob must remain pressed. The blue flame is
visible with the fridge door open through the small hole in the lower right
hand side. If the flame goes out repeat the steps above. After the fridge has
cooled enough the gas thermostat switch can be turned to the desired
temperature.
Switching Off: Just close the quick release valve in the kitchen cupboard.
Electric Operation
: For electric operation switch the toggle switch
between 220 V and 12 V (only when driving).
The temperature is regulated using the upper turn knob.
If fridge is not being used for a long period the fridge door should be left
open.
Shower
The shower and wash basin are made from fibreglass with a gel coat
finish. The good surface shine will only last if the surface is properly
treated. To clean use only soap or a mild detergent solution.
Avoid contact with abrasive agents such as ATA, VIM etc.
Where the surface has small scratches or is dull a fine metal polish can be
used to restore the shine.
Electrical Installation
The vehicles is fitted with a combined 12 / 220 V power supply.
In the seat bench a battery charger is installed with an electronically
regulated 12 Volt output.
Via a switch on the control panel the output can be switched to either the
starter battery or the auxiliary battery.
The 220 Volt supply is via a socket on the exterior side wall with 2 pole
protection by means of a connecting cable (3 x 1.5mm²).
12 V Battery Operation:
All 12 Volt equipment such as lights, water
pump and heating are powered from the auxiliary battery in the seat bench.
Attention
: limited battery capacity.
