Safe Operation - Truma VarioHeat Series Einbauanweisung

– Heat-sensitive objects (e.g. spray cans) or
flammable materials / liquids must not be
stored in the same compartment where the
appliance is installed because, under certain
conditions, this area may be subject to el-
evated temperatures.
– Keep flammable materials away from the
area in front of the warm air outlets. Never
block the warm air outlets.
– The openings for circulated air intake, the
installation compartment and the space
around the unit must be kept free of ob-
stacles so that the unit does not overheat.
– Keep the cowl for the exhaust duct and
combustion air infeed free of contamination
(slush, ice, leaves etc.) at all times.
– 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.
Obligations of the operator / vehicle owner
– The vehicle owner is responsible for correct
operation of the appliance.
– The installer or vehicle owner must affix the
supplied yellow sticker with the warning
information in a location in the vehicle
where it is clearly visible to all users (e.g.
the wardrobe door). Missing stickers can be
requested from Truma.
– Liquid gas systems must comply with the
technical and administrative regulations of the
respective country of use (e.g. EN 1949 for ve-
hicles in Europe). The national legislation and
regulations (e.g. DVGW Work Sheet G 607 for
vehicles in Germany) must be observed.
– The vehicle owner must arrange for the
gas system to be tested (in Germany every
2 years) by a liquid gas expert (DVFG, TÜV,
DEKRA). The test must be confirmed on the
respective test certificate (G 607).
– Pressure regulating devices and hoses must
be replaced with new ones no more than
10 years after their date of manufacture
( every 8 years if used commercially).
– Inspect hose lines regularly and have them
replaced if they are broken.

Safe operation

– The use of upright gas cylinders from which gas
is taken in the gas phase is mandatory for the
operation of gas pressure regulation systems,
gas equipment and gas systems. Gas cylinders
from which gas is taken in the liquid phase
(e. g. for fork lifts) must not be used, since they
would result in damage to the gas system.
– The operating pressure of the gas supply
(30 mbar) and of the appliance (see type
plate) must be the same.
– In Germany, only pressure regulating equip-
ment that complies with DIN EN 16129 (in
vehicles) with a fixed output pressure of
30 mbar may be used for the gas system.
The flow rate of the pressure regulating
equipment must correspond to at least the
maximum consumption of all devices in-
stalled by the system manufacturer.
– For vehicles, we recommend the
Truma MonoControl CS gas pressure regu-
lation system and the Truma DuoComfort /
DuoControl CS gas pressure regulation sys-
tem for two-cylinder gas systems.
– At temperatures of around 0 °C and below,
the gas pressure regulation system or the
changeover valve should be operated with
the EisEx regulator heater.
– Suitable hoses that meet national regulations
must always be used in the respective country
for which the equipment is destined.
– Ensure that the inside of the vehicle is suf-
ficiently ventilated. When the unit is started
up, there may be some smoke and/or smell
due to dust or dirt. Especially if it has not
been used for a long time.
– This appliance may be used by children from
8 years old and by persons with disabilities
or with a lack of experience if they are super-
vised or have been instructed in the safe use
of the appliance and understand the result-
ing risks. Children must not be allowed to
play with the appliance.
– The integrity and tight fit of the exhaust double
duct must be checked regularly, particularly at
the end of long trips. Also check the mounting
of the unit and the cowl.
