- Motor buses of vehicle classes M2 and M3,
- Commercial vehicles of vehicle class N,
- Boats and other water vessels,
- Hunting/forestry huts, weekend homes or awnings.
- Installation in trailers and vehicles used to transport hazard-
ous goods is prohibited
- Heating of liquids other than drinking water (e.g. cleaning,
descaling, disinfectant and preserving agents) is prohibited.
- Defective appliances must not be used.
- Appliances installed and utilised in contravention of the op-
erating and installation instructions must not be used.

Safety instructions

To ensure safe and proper use, carefully
read and observe the operating instruc-
tions and other documents supplied with the
product, and keep them in a safe place for
future reference. The respective valid laws, di-
rectives and standards must be observed.
Not following the rules in the operating and
installation instructions can result in serious
material damage and serious risk to the health
or life of persons. The appliance's operator or
user is solely responsible for such damage.
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 tak-
en in the liquid phase (e.g. for fork lifts) must
not be used, since they would result in dam-
age to the gas system.
