Safety instructions
– Before using the Mover for the first time, practice with it
outdoors to familiarise yourself with the functions of
the remote control and the Mover.
– This appliance may be used by children from 8 years old
and by persons with disabilities or with a lack of experience
only if they are supervised or have been instructed in the
safe use of the appliance and understand the resulting risks.
Children must not be allowed to play with the appliance.
Before each use of the Mover, check tyres and drive rollers,
removing any sharp stones and similar objects.
– The side slide switch on the remote control (ON / OFF)
also serves as an “Emergency Stop switch”. Switch
the side slide switch to “OFF” immediately in the
event of any abnormalities, e. g. uncontrolled behav-
iour of the Mover.
– No person must be present in the caravan during operation.
– There must be no persons (particularly children) inside
the turning and movement range (manoeuvring range) of
the caravan.
– Ensure that there is sufficient visibility and space.
– When engaging and disengaging and while operating the
Mover, care must be taken to ensure that no hair, parts of
the body, clothing or other parts on the body can become
caught in moving and / or rotating parts (such as drive
rollers).
– During manoeuvring, the distance between the radio re-
mote control and the middle of the caravan must not ex-
ceed 10 m.
– Apply the parking brake in the event of a malfunction.
– In order to avoid tilting the caravan, when manoeuvring
on slopes the drawbar should be pointed downwards
(downhill).
– After manoeuvring, always first apply the parking brake,
block the wheels (particularly on downhill slopes!)
and and disengage the drive rollers from the tyres. The
Mover is not suitable for use as a parking brake for the
parked caravan.
– Always protect the radio remote control from unauthorised
access (paying particular attention to children).
– Do not pocket or put down the ready-to-use remote control
nicht, otherwise functions can be unintentionally triggered
via the control knob and the slide control
– Never tow the caravan with the drive rollers engaged, as
this may cause damage to the tyres, the towing vehicle and
the drive units, as well as to attachments.
– All wheels and tyres on the caravan must be of the same
size and type.
– In order to ensure that the Mover operates correctly, the
gap between the tyres and the disengaged drive rollers
must be 20 mm. All tyres must be inflated to the same pres-
sure in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions and
checked regularly. Tyre wear or the fitting of new tyres may
make it necessary to readjust the gap between the drive
rollers and the tyres (see “Fitting the drive elements”).
– When using a jack, the Mover must not be used as a jack-
ing point, as this may damage the drive unit.
– Sensitive objects such as cameras, DVD players etc. must
not be kept in the stowage box near the control unit or the
motor cables, as the powerful electromagnetic fields may
damage them.

Charger
For optimum battery charging we recommend the Truma BC10
charger, which is suitable for all battery types up to 200 Ah.
Battery care (including maintenance-free
batteries)
In order to achieve a long battery service life, attention must
be paid to the following points:
– Batteries should be fully charged before and after removing
power,
– for stationary periods of longer than 24 hours, interrupt
power circuit (e.g. using circuit breaker or by disconnecting
the battery poles),
– for longer stop periods the battery must be disconnected
and charged for 24 hours at least every 12 weeks.
In winter, store the fully-charged battery in a cool and
frost-free place and recharge at regular intervals (every
12 weeks).
Notes for handling batteries
– When handling batteries, pay attention to the manufac-
turer’s safety instructions and data sheets
– Ensure that the terminal clamps are secure.
– Secure battery poles with protection caps in order to pre-
vent a short circuit
– When removing the battery, first disconnect the earth con-
nection (negative terminal), followed by the positive termi-
nal. When installing the battery, first connect the positive
terminal followed by the negative terminal.
Function description
Always observe the operating instructions and the
“Safety instructions” prior to starting! The vehicle owner
is responsible for correct operation of the device.
Please note that the Mover is only suitable for single-
axle trailers.
The Mover is a manoeuvring assistant which allows a caravan
to be manoeuvred without the aid of the towing vehicle.
It consists of two separate drive units, each with its own
12VDC motor. These units are mounted on the chassis in the
immediate vicinity of the wheels and are connected by lateral
bars.
Once the drive rollers have been engaged against the tyres
using the lever provided, the Mover is ready for operation. It is
operated exclusively via the remote control, which transmits
radio signals to the control unit. A separately installed 12V
lead-acid battery or suitable gel battery (not supplied) pro-
vides the control unit with electrical power.
– The empty weight of the vehicle is increased by the weight
of the Mover, thus reducing the vehicle’s payload.
– When engaging, make sure that there are no objects (e.g.
stones, lumps of ice) particularly between the drive roller
and tyres.
– Inspect the system for damage before use.
The system must not be used if it is damaged.
General instructions
The Mover is a manoeuvring assistant which allows a caravan
to be manoeuvred without the aid of the towing vehicle.
The Mover has been designed to cope with inclines of up to
approx. 13% bearing a gross weight of 2000kg on a suitable
surface.
Depending on the weight of the caravan, the Mover may not be
able to overcome obstacles more than about 20 mm in height
without auxiliary equipment (please use ascent chocks).
As a result of the characteristic properties of a radio signal, it
may be interrupted by terrain / objects. This reduces reception
quality in small areas around the caravan, as a result of which
the operation of the Mover may be briefly interrupted. In this
eventuality, the remote control must be switched off and on
again.
When the Mover is switched off using the remote con-
trol, the control unit remains in standby. To completely
switch it off, the battery must be disconnected or isolated
from the power supply via a previously installed circuit
breaker.
Power supply
For optimum operation, we recommend the Truma Mover
PowerSet and high-performance Optima® batteries.
So-called drive, lighting and gel batteries with sufficient ca-
pacity are also suitable.
Batteries
Recommended battery capacities
Button cell technology at least 55 Ah
Gel / AGM at least 70 Ah
Lead acid battery (liquid electrolyte) at least 80 Ah
Starter batteries are not suitable

Remote control battery change
Please only use leak-proof micro-batteries with a steel outer
casing, type LR 03, AAA, AM 4, MN 2400 (1.5 V).
When inserting new batteries, take care not to reverse the
positive and negative terminals!
Figure 3
Empty, used batteries can leak and damage the remote
control! Remove the batteries if the remote control is not
being used for a long period of time.
No warranty is given for damage caused by leaking
batteries.
Disposal
Neither the remote control nor the batteries may be
disposed of with domestic refuse, instead they must be
sent for recycling separately via a collection point. By
doing this you are contributing towards reuse and recycling.
Manoeuvring the caravan
Follow the “Safety instructions” before using the Mover!
With the caravan uncoupled (apply parking brake and secure
against rolling away) engage the drive rollers on the tyres us-
ing the lever provided. Turn the lever until it cannot be turned
any further without excessive force. In the end position the
drive unit engages securely. This must be checked on both
sides before manoeuvring.
Before starting the Mover, release the parking brake
and remove the chocks.
Move the slide switch (a) on the remote control to the “On”
position – the green LED flashes in combination with the
audio signal for approx. 5 seconds until the control unit is
ready for use.
Movement in all directions is possible using the control knob
and the slide control.
The Softstart / Softstop makes the caravan start to move
without jolting, and brakes it gently when stopping.
When the control knob or slide control are released, or if the
radio signal is interrupted or becomes too weak, the caravan
stops moving. Radio equipment and other Moverremote con-
trols will not activate your Mover.
After start-up, the Mover moves at a steady speed (according
to the setting on the slide control). Speed increases slightly on
downhill slopes and decreases on uphill slopes.
System factors mean that the speed increases on slopes.
To reduce the speed, it is necessary to stop often (slide con-
trol in the idle position) and then start again.
Move the slide switch on the remote control to the “Off” pos-
ition to switch off the remote control and the Mover.
The slide switch also acts as an “Emergency Stop”
switch.
After manoeuvring, apply the parking brake first and se-
cure the caravan with chocks to prevent it from rolling away,
then disengage the drive rollers from the tyres.
Coupling to a towing vehicle
The Mover allows a caravan to be coupled to a towing vehicle
with millimetric precision. However, this requires care and a
degree of practice.
Following the operating instructions, move the caravan close
to the towing vehicle (apply parking brake and engage gear).
In order to position the caravan precisely, operate the control
knob or slide control until the caravan’s coupling is located
precisely over the ball coupling on the towing vehicle. Then
couple the caravan to the vehicle by lowering it at the support
wheel in the usual manner.
Prepare the caravan for towing in the usual way.
The caravan must not be towed with the drive
rollers engaged.
Maintenance
Keep drive elements clear of coarse road dirt. When cleaning
the caravan, spray the Mover with a water hose to remove
mud etc. Make sure that no stones, twigs etc. are trapped in
it. The control unit does not require servicing. The remote con-
trol must be kept in a dry place.
Clean the Mover as described above every year (or before
overwintering).
Do not park the caravan with the drive rollers engaged.
To prevent the battery from becoming totally discharged dur-
ing long periods of inactivity, it must be disconnected and
then recharged from time to time. Charge the caravan battery
before starting up.
It is extremely easy for you or your caravan dealer to perform
the checking and maintenance of your Mover during the an-
nual inspection of your caravan. If in doubt, please contact
Truma Service (www.truma.com).
Checks
– Check the installation, wiring and connections for damage
at regular intervals. The drive units must be able to move
freely, and the spring must automatically return them to
the safe idle position when they are disengaged. If this is
not the case, check the drive units for dirt or corrosion on
their guides, and if necessary have them cleaned by trained
specialists.
– After the annual inspection, check whether all motors react
properly to the commands from the remote control.
– At least every 2 years, an expert must check the Mover for
rust, check that detachable parts are firmly attached and
check that all safety-related parts are in good working order.

Troubleshooting
Before calling customer service, please check the following:
Are the batteries in the remote control in perfect condition?
Is the caravan battery in perfect condition and fully charged?
Please note that battery performance can deteriorate con-
siderably at cold ambient temperatures.
Perform a reset by briefly disconnecting the battery (approx.
10seconds).
If these actions do not remedy the problem, please contact
Truma Service.
Tuning the electronic control unit to the radio
remote control
The remote control and the control unit are tuned to
each other in the factory.
If the control unit or the remote control is replaced, they must
be tuned to each other again in accordance with the instruc-
tions below.
Check that installation has been carried out in accordance
with the installation instructions, and make sure that the drive
rollers are not engaged. Check that the caravan battery is
properly connected and its condition.
Read the following instructions beforehand, as you only
have a limited time for tuning (approx. 10 seconds).
You will need a pen, a small screwdriver or similar to
press the reset button (k).
– Switch off the remote control with the slide switch (a).
– After switching on the control unit (e.g. battery cut-off
switch), wait (for about 15 seconds) until the red LED (j)
starts flashing slowly.
– Press the reset button (k) on the control unit (LED (j) flashes
more rapidly) until the red LED (j) flashes very rapidly.
– Turn the control knob (b) all the way to the left and hold it in
place – push the slide control (c) all the way forwards and
hold it in place, and at the same time switch on the remote
control using the slide switch (a). Release the control knob
(b) and slide control (c) within 10 seconds.
– When the devices have been successfully tuned, the
redLED (j) on the control unit flashes very rapidly and the
green LED 4 on the remote control remains permanently on.
If tuning was unsuccessful, the red LED (j) flashes and
you have to repeat the process.

Manufacturer’s Warranty
(European Union)
1. Scope of Manufacturer’s Warranty
As the Manufacturer of the unit, Truma undertakes a warranty
towards the Consumer that covers any material and/or manu-
facturing defects of the unit.
This Warranty is applicable in EU member states as well as
in Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey. A Consumer is
the natural person who was the first one to purchase the
unit from the Manufacturer, OEM or dealer and who neither
resold the unit in a commercial or self-employed professional
capacity nor did he or she install it for a third party in such a
capacity.
The Manufacturer’s Warranty covers any of the aforemen-
tioned defects that occur within 24 months upon conclud-
ing the purchase agreement between the seller and the
Consumer.
The Manufacturer or an authorised service partner undertakes
to remedy such defects through subsequent fulfilment, i.e.
at its discretion either by repairing or replacing the defective
item. Any defective parts shall become the property of the
Manufacturer or the authorised service partner. If the unit is
no longer manufactured at the time of defect notification and
if replacement delivery has been opted for, then the Manufac-
turer may deliver a similar product.
If the Manufacturer remedies a defect under its warranty
commitment, the term of the Warranty shall not recommence
anew with regard to the repaired or replaced parts; rather, the
original warranty period shall continue to be applicable to the
unit.
Only the Manufacturer itself and an authorised service partner
shall be entitled to conduct a warranty job. Any costs that oc-
cur in the event of a warranty claim shall be settled directly
between the authorised service partner and the Manufacturer.
The Warranty does not cover additional costs arising from
complicated removal or installation jobs on the unit (e.g.
dismantling of furnishings or parts of the vehicle body), and
neither does it cover travel expenses incurred by the author-
ised service partner or the Manufacturer.
No further-reaching claims shall be permitted, especially dam-
age claims presented by the Consumer or third parties. This
provision shall not affect the validity of the German Product
Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz).
Neither does the voluntary Manufacturer’s Warranty affect the
Consumer’s legally applicable claims for defects towards the
seller in the relevant country of purchase.
In individual countries there may be warranties that can be
issued by the relevant dealer (official distributor, Truma Partner).
In such cases the warranty can be implemented directly
through the dealer from whom the Consumer bought the unit.
The warranty regulations of the country in which the unit was
purchased by the Consumer for the first time shall also be
applicable.
2. Warranty exclusions
No warranty claim shall be applicable under the following
circumstances:
– Improper use, contrary to the specified use
– Improper installation, assembly or commissioning, contrary
to operating or installation instructions
– Improper operation, contrary to operating or installation
instructions, particularly maintenance, care and warning
notes
– Instances where repairs, installations or any other pro-
cedures have been conducted by non-authorised partners
– Consumable materials and parts which are subject to natu-
ral wear and tear
– Installation of replacement, supplementary or accessory
parts that are not original Manufacturer’s parts and which
have thus caused a defect
– Damage arising from foreign substances (e.g. oils, plasti-
cisers in the gas), chemical or electrochemical influences
in the water, or cases when the unit has come into contact
with unsuitable substances (e.g. chemical products, unsuit-
able cleaning agents)
– Damage caused by abnormal environmental or unsuitable
operating conditions
– Damage caused by force majeure or natural disasters or
any other influences not within Truma’s responsibility
– Damage resulting from improper transport
3. Making a warranty claim
The warranty must be claimed with an authorised service part-
ner or at the Truma Service Centre. All the relevant addresses
and phone numbers can be found at www.truma.com, in the
“Service” section.
To ensure a smooth procedure, we would be grateful if you
could have the following details ready before contacting us:
– Detailed description of the defect
– Serial number of the unit
– Date of purchase
The authorised service partner or the Truma Service Centre
will then specify the further procedure. To avoid transport
damage, the affected unit must only be shipped by prior ar-
rangement with the authorised service partner or the Truma
Service Centre.
If the warranty claim is recognised by the Manufacturer, then
the transport expenses shall be borne by the same. If no war-
ranty claim is applicable, the Consumer will be notified ac-
cordingly and any repair and transport expenses shall then be
the Consumer’s liability.
We ask you not to send in a unit without prior arrangement.
