Operation While Driving; Important Operating Notes - Truma BGF 10 Gebrauchsanweisung

Operation while driving

For heating while driving, the UN ECE regula-
tion 122 stipulates a safety shut-off device to
prevent the uncontrolled escape of gas in the
event of an accident. The Truma MonoControl
CS gas pressure regulation system fulfils this
requirement.
National regulations and rules must be
followed.
If no safety shut-off device (e.g. MonoControl CS)
is installed, the gas cylinder must be closed while
driving and notices must be attached in accord-
ance with the valid regulations.

Important operating notes

Drain the boiler if there is a risk of frost!
No claims may be made under the war-
ranty if this instruction is not followed.
If the cowl has been placed near or di-
rectly beneath a window that can be
opened, the appliance must be equipped with
an automatic shut-off device in order to pre-
vent operation with the window open.
Even if the cold water system is being
operated without the boiler, the boiler
will still fill with water. To avoid frost damage,
the water in the boiler must be drained by op-
erating the drain valve, even if the boiler has
not been used.
Alternatively, two hot water-resistant shut-off
valves can be fitted upstream of the cold and
hot water connection.
Always fit the cowl cover when the boil-
er is not in use. Failure to do so may
cause the appliance to malfunction as a result
of water, dirt or insects.
Before commencing a journey, fit the
cowl cover with the boiler switched off.
Please ensure that it is secure and has locked
into place (risk of accident). Defective cowl
covers must not be used.
No claims may be made under the warranty if
this instruction is not followed. It is essential
to remove the cowl cover before starting up
the boiler.
If connected to a central water supply
( rural or urban connection), or if more
powerful pumps are being used, a pressure
reducer must be used which will prevent
pressures higher than 2.8 bar from occurring
in the boiler.
During the initial start-up of a brand new
appliance, small quantities of fumes and
a slight odour may briefly occur. When the
appliance is started up after a particularly long
period of non-use, there may be some smoke
and/or smell due to dust or dirt. It is a good
idea to allow the appliance to run at maximum
output for a few minutes for the purpose of
self-cleaning and to ensure that the area is
well ventilated.
The materials of the appliance that come
into contact with water are safe for drink-
ing water (see Manufacturer's Declaration,
www.truma.com – Manufacturer's Declaration).
