Choice of location
Always install the appliance
an its exhaust uct in such
a way that it is always easily
accessible for service work
an can be remove an
installe easily.
For evenly istribute heat-
ing, the installation of the ap-
pliance shoul be as much in
the centre of the vehicle as
possible (or un er the vehi-
cle), an in such a way that
the air istribution ucts can
be route with approximately
the same length.
The cowl must be place in
such a way that exhaust gas
cannot fin its way into the
vehicle interior.
Fig. A : The wall cowl is to
be fitte in such a way that
no tank nozzles or tank venti-
lation apertures are locate
within 500 mm (R) of it. In
a ition, no air ischarge
apertures for the living area
or win ow openings may be
locate with 300 mm (R) of it.
If the cowl is fitte irectly
beneath a win ow which is
to be opene , the evice
must be fitte with an auto-
matic isconnection evice.

with wall or roof cowl must
be installe only with Truma
exhaust uct AA 3 (Art. no.
