– Risk of poisoning from exhaust gases
The exhaust gases from the heater can
cause poisoning in enclosed spaces, such as
garages or repair shops. If the RV is parked
in an enclosed space:
– Block the fuel feed to the heater.
– Disable the time switch.
– Switch the heater off on the control panel.
– Make sure that appliances cannot be
switched on via the Truma App.
– If the cowl was placed near or below a win-
dow that opens, the appliance must have an
automatic switch-off device to prevent op-
eration when the window is open.
– Keep flammable materials away from the
area in front of warm air outlets. Never block
the warm air outlets.
– So that the appliance does not overheat, do
not obstruct the openings for circulated air
intake, the opening to the installation loca-
tion or the space around the appliance.
– The cowl for the exhaust duct and combus-
tion air intake must be free of contamination
at all times (slush, ice, leaves, etc.).
– Danger from hot surfaces and exhaust gas
Do not touch the area around the wall cowl
and do not lean any objects against the wall
cowl or the vehicle.
– Air from the discharge vent may be hot. Do
not place combustible materials directly in
front of the discharge vent. Keep curtains,
bedding and other flammable materials
away from the vent.
Obligations of the operator / vehicle owner
– The vehicle owner is responsible for correct
operation of the appliance.
– The installer or vehicle owner must attach
the yellow sticker with the warning that is
supplied at a place in the vehicle that is visible
for every user (e.g. on the wardrobe door).
More stickers can be obtained from Truma.
– The vehicle owner must arrange for the
gas system to be tested (in Germany every
2 years) by an LPG expert (in Germany DVFG,
TÜV, DEKRA). This must be confirmed on the
corresponding test certificate (G 607).
– Check hoses regularly and replace when
they are brittle.
– Pressure control devices and hoses must be re-
placed at the latest after 10 years from the date
of manufacture (8 years for commercial use).
Safe operation
– To operate gas pressure regulation systems,
gas appliances and gas systems, standing
gas cylinders from which gas is withdrawn
from the gas phase must be used. Gas cyl-
inders from which gas is withdrawn from the
liquid phase (e.g. for forklifts) are not permit-
ted, as they damage the gas system.
– The working pressure of the gas supply
(2.75 kPa) and of the appliance (see type
plate) must correspond.
– LPG systems must comply with the technical
and administrative regulations of the country
in which they are used (in Europe, for ex-
ample, EN 1949 for vehicles). National rules
and regulations (in Germany, for example
DVGW worksheet G 607 for vehicles) must
be observed.
– For vehicles, we recommend the Truma
MonoControl CS gas pressure regulation
system and for two-cylinder systems, the
Truma DuoComfort / DuoControl CS gas
pressure regulation systems.
– At temperatures of 0 °C and below, the gas
pressure regulation system and the change-
over valve should be operated with the EisEx
controller heater.
– Use only hoses that comply with the regula-
tions of the country in which the appliance
will be used.
– Ensure that the inside of the vehicle is suf-
ficiently ventilated. When you start up the
appliance, you may notice a slight smell or
fumes due to dust or dirt. Especially if it has
not been used for some time
