Read the installation instructions carefully prior to start-
ing work and observe the instructions!

Intended use

The VarioHeat liquefied gas heater is a warm-air heater for 
installation in recreational vehicles (RVs) only. 

RVs are recreational vehicles designed as temporary living 
quarters for recreation, camping or travel use. Such vehicles 
have their own power or are towed by another vehicle.

Safety behaviour and practices

•  Installation must be performed by an authorised 

Dometic 

recommended installer, service agency, or OEM. Improper 
installation, alteration, service, or maintenance can cause 
property damage, personal injury, or loss of life. 

•  This heater must be installed in accordance with:

 

– these installation instructions,

 

– local gas fitting regulations, 

 

– municipal building codes, 

 

– electrical wiring regulations,

 

– AS/NZS 5601.2 – LP Gas installations in caravans and 

boats for non-propulsive purposes (“LP Gas installations”). 

 

– and any other statutory regulations.

•  Use with liquefied petroleum gas (LP Gas) in the vapour 

phase—propane gas only. Butane or any mixtures contain-
ing more than 10 % butane must not be used.

•  The nominal gas system pressure must be 2.75 kPa (see 

type plate on heater).

•  Switch off the vehicle’s on-board power supply during in-

stallation and when connecting the heater.

•  Close the vehicle’s gas supply during installation and when 

connecting the heater.

•  Always wear protective gloves to avoid injuries from sharp 

edges during installation and maintenance work.

• 

Do not

 draw air for combustion from occupied spaces or 

downstream from evaporative coolers, air washers or cool-
ing units of refrigerating systems. Make sure that all com-
bustion air is supplied from outside the RV.

•  Make sure that all exhaust gases are directed outside of the RV. 

 

– Protect building materials from exhaust gases.

 

– Never direct the exhaust gases to any outdoor enclosed 

spaces, such as a porch.

• 

Do not

 modify this heater or its controls. This can cause 

unforeseen serious hazards and will void the warranty.

• 

Do not

 perform a hi-pot test on the heater unless the 

electronic ignition system (circuit board) has been discon-
nected. A hi-pot test applies a very high voltage between 
two conductors.

•  If the vehicle requires welding 

do not

 connect the 

12 V   power to the heater. Electrical welding will cause 
serious damage to the heater controller.

•  Never fix cables or water pipes to the housing of the heater, 

otherwise components inside the heater can be damaged.

Pay attention to the ESD regulations!
