3.17  AL-KO ATC Operation 

On caravans fitted with Al-Ko Automatic Traction Control, the Swift Command App can be used to 
monitor the status of the ATC from within your tow vehicle.  More information on this can be found 
within the Swift Command App and the associated user guide. 

3.18  Temperature Readings 

The EC600 Temperature sensor measures the ‘core’ temperature of the vehicle, and provides a figure 
for information only. The same sensor also measures humidity, providing a figure (also for information 
only) from within that bed box or storage area. 

It is hoped that the temperature information is a particularly useful figure, for instance when checking 
on the vehicle remotely during cold weather.  

For vehicles fitted with Alde or Truma heating systems, this sensor is not used to control the heating 
temperature as it is measured above the door by the Alde or Truma room sensor.  The readings on the 
heating system may vary relative to the storage area temperature below the bed. 

For vehicles fitted with a Whale heating system, the sensor is used to control the heating temperature 
as this system does not have its own sensor. 

Heat from other items in the vehicle (in particular components from the heating system itself) will have 
a bearing on the reading displayed by the Swift Command system. Ventilation is also present in the 
majority of bed / storage areas, and air entering or passing through this area will also have an effect on 
the temperatures and humidity levels displayed. 

3.19  Bluetooth Pairing 

Using the control panel, access the System Settings menu and then scroll to the Bluetooth pairing 
section.  Press the select button to start pairing, the power button LED will flash to indicate the pairing 
mode.  You can now pair your device to the system following the devices instructions to add a 
Bluetooth item.  Pairing remains on for 1 minute and is then turned off automatically. 

Note: Further help with Bluetooth pairing is available in the form of a help video which can be viewed 
on the Sargent website in the Support Information section. 

3.20  System Warnings 

The system incorporates a number of warnings that are active at specific times.  These are 
summarised below, and also covered by relevant sections of this manual.  

When a warning is active a triangle will be displayed in the control panel header area.
