Hitching To A Tow Car - Truma Mover S Gebrauchsanweisung

Hitching to a tow car

1. It is totally possible to position the caravan's hitch to a
stationary car tow ball using the Mover, but take some care.
2. Use the instructions above as your guide. Use the button
controls to bring the caravan to the car (car handbrake „ON",
and car in gear). Use a button stabbing technique to exactly
position the hitch directly over the ball. Lower the hitch to the
ball and engage in the normal way using the jockey wheel.
3. Prepare the caravan for towing as usual. The caravan must
not be towed with the drive rollers swivelled in.
Maintenance
1. Please do not allow the drive units to become soiled with
coarse road material. When you are cleaning the caravan,
spray the Mover with a water hose to dissolve mud etc. Please
ensure that no stones, twigs or the like become trapped in the
equipment. The control unit does not require maintenance.
Please keep the remote hand set in a dry place.
2. Every year (and/or before putting away for the winter), clean
Mover as described, dry and lightly spray the drive unit guides
with oil spray or a similar water-repelling lubricant. Do not put
lubricant on the rollers or the tyres! Swivel the drive units
in and out several times to allow the lubricant to penetrate all
the guides. Do not park the caravan with the drive rollers swiv-
elled in.
3. To prevent the battery from becoming totally discharged
during long periods of inactivity it must be disconnected and
recharged before using again. Charge the caravan battery be-
fore starting up.
It is extremely easy for you or your caravan dealer to perform
the checking and maintenance of your Mover during the an-
nual inspection of your caravan. If in doubt, please contact the
Truma Services (page 66).
Checks
Check the installation, wiring and connections for damage
!
at regular intervals. The drive units must be able to move
freely and be returned automatically to the safe idle position
by the return spring when they are swivelled out. If this is
not the case, examine drive units for soiling or corrosion at
the guides and clean if necessary. Undo all moving parts as
required and oil or spray with a lubricant such as WD40 to
ensure that the equipment moves correctly and provides the
full range of movement.
After the annual inspection, check whether all motors react
!
properly to the buttons on the remote control.

Trouble-shooting
Before calling customer service, please check the following:
1. Are the batteries in the remote handset in good condition?
2. Is the caravan battery in good condition and fully charged?
Please note that battery performance can deteriorate rapidly at
cold ambient temperatures.
Perform a reset by briefly disconnecting the battery (for ap-
prox. 10 seconds).
If the fault cannot be remedied, please contact your dealer or
the Truma Service department (page 66).
Synchronising the electronic control unit
with the radio remote hand set
The remote hand set and the control unit are synchronised
with each other in the factory.
If the control unit or the remote hand set is replaced, they
must be re-synchronised as described below.
1. Check the installation in accordance with the installation
instructions and ensure that the drive rollers are not applied.
Check that the battery is properly connected, check the condi-
tion of the battery and that a voltage of 12 V volts is present at
the control unit.
2. Press reset button (h) on the control unit for approximately
5 seconds, and the green indicator lamp (i) will flash when the
button is released.
3. Move slide switch (a) on remote hand set to the „On"
sition. This synchronises the remote hand set and the control
unit.
