Remote control battery change

Only use micro-batteries that will not leak,
type LR 03, AAA, AM 4, MN 2400 (1.5 V).
When inserting new batteries, make
sure the positive / negative terminals
are connected correctly.
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.
Before scrapping a defective remote control, always remove
the batteries and dispose of them properly.

Manoeuvring the caravan

Follow the "Safety instructions" before using the
Mover®.
With the caravan uncoupled (apply parking brake), engage
the drive rollers using the lever provided. Turn the lever until it
cannot be turned any further without excessive force. In the
end position the drive assembly engages securely.
Before starting the Mover®, release the parking brake.
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.
The direction buttons allow the caravan to be moved in six
directions – forwards, reverse, left forwards, left reverse, right
forwards, right reverse.
In addition, the "left forwards" (e) and "right reverse" (f), or
"right forwards" (d) and "left reverse" (g) buttons can be
pressed simultaneously to turn the caravan on the spot with-
out moving it forwards.
The Softstart / Softstop makes the caravan start to move
without jolting, and brakes it gently when stopping.
When the buttons are released, or if the radio signal is inter-
rupted or becomes too weak, the caravan stops moving.
Radio equipment or other Mover® remote controls will not
activate your Mover®.
After starting up, the Mover® moves at a uniform speed.
Speed increases slightly on downhill slopes and decreases on
uphill slopes.
Move the slide switch on the remote control to the "Off" posi-

tion to switch the remote control and the Mover® off.
The slide switch also acts as an "Emergency Stop"
switch.
After manoeuvring, apply the parking brake first and then
disengage the drive rollers from the tyres.

Coupling to a towing vehicle

The Mover® allows a caravan to be coupled to a towing ve-
hicle 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, press the appropri-
ate direction button briefly and repeatedly until the caravan's
coupling is located precisely over the ball coupling on the
towing vehicle. Then couple the caravan to the vehicle by low-
ering it at the support wheel in the usual manner.
Figure 3 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.
Every year (or before overwintering), clean the Mover® as
described above, dry it and spray the drive assembly guides
lightly with spray oil or similar water-repellent lubricants. Do
not put lubricant on the rollers or the tyres. Engage and
disengage the drive assemblies a few times to allow the lubri-
cant to penetrate all the guides. 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
recharged before using again. 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 annual in-
spection of your caravan. In case of doubt, please contact Truma
Service (see Truma Service Booklet or www.truma.com).

Checks

– Check the installation, wiring and connections for damage
at regular intervals. The drive assemblies 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 assemblies for dirt or cor-
rosion on their guides, cleaning them if necessary. Undo all
moving parts as required and oil or spray with a spray oil
(such as WD40) to ensure that the equipment moves cor-
rectly and provides the full range of movement.
– After the annual inspection, check whether all motors react
properly to the buttons on 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.
