Dear Webasto Customer,
Thank you for choosing a Webasto heater.
Webasto coolant heaters are used
– to provide engine pre-heat for boats, trucks, minibuses, vans, motor-homes, etc.
– to provide auxiliary heating for boats, trucks, minibuses, vans, motor-homes, etc.
– to provide area heating through the use of fan-assisted heat exchangers
We presume that the principle and mode of operation of your new heater has been explained to your com-
plete satisfaction by the workshop or service center which installed the heater. In these operating instruc-
tions we would like to once again provide you with an overview of the safe use of your new heater.
Repair work should only be carried out by an authorized Webasto dealer.
1. When the heater is in use, the surface of the heat exchanger will become hot to the touch. Contact with skin may
cause burns.
2. Webasto heaters must be switched “off” when re-fueling at gas stations and/or while loading or
unloading flammable materials for transport, to prevent the risk of explosion.
3. The year in which the heater was used for the first time must be permanently displayed on the factory plate by
deleting the inapplicable years from the plate.
4. The heaters are not designed for heating hazardous substance transport compartments.
5. Claims can only be made if it can be verified that the claimant has complied with the servicing and safety instructions.
6. The heater may not be operated in enclosed spaces (such as garages) as a result of the risk of poisoning
and asphyxiation, even if a timer is used.
7. In the event of long-lasting heavy smoke development, unusual combustion noises or a smell of fuel or if the heater
suffers continuous fault cut-outs with error messages (on select models), it must be shut down by removing the fuse
and must not be used until it has been inspected by Webasto-trained personnel.
8. Wherever flammable vapors or dust may form, the heater must be switched off as a result of the risk of
explosion.
9. The heat transfer unit on coolant heaters is exposed to very high thermal stress and must be replaced by a genuine
Webasto spare part after a ten year life cycle.
10.The fuel specified by the vehicle manufacturer is suitable for use in Webasto heaters.
There are no known negative influences due to fuel additives when used appropriately.
If fuel is extracted from the vehicle’s tank, follow the additive instructions issued by the vehicle
manufacturer.
If you change to low-temperature fuel, the heater must be operated for approx. 15 minutes so that the
fuel system is filled with the new fuel.
11.The temperature in the area around the heater must not exceed 85 °C / 185° F (storage temperature). If the
temperature exceeds this level there is a risk of permanent damage to the electronics systems.
12.Non-compliance with the installation instructions and the warnings contained therein will lead to the
exclusion of all liability by Webasto. The same applies if repairs are carried out incorrectly or by untrained
technicians or with the use of parts other than genuine spare parts. This will result in the invalidation of
the type approval for the heater unit.
13.To prevent mechanical parts seizing, the heater should be operated for approx. 20 minutes once a month.
14.Do not stand on the heater, do not place any items of clothing, textiles or similar materials over the
heater or the pipes/hoses carrying heated coolant.
15.The heater must not be cleaned with a high pressure cleaner.
