Statutory regulations concerning
the installation of the HYDRONIC
• For installation in motor vehicles subject to the
Regulations authorizing the Use of Vehicles for Road

the German Federal Office for Motor Traffic in keeping
with the ‘General Design Certification’ (AGB) and the
official test symbol is marked on the type plate of the
heater.

• The mounting requirements associated with the General Design Certification (AGB) and further statutory
regulations have been printed in the corresponding
sections of these mounting instructions.
• When the air heater is installed in special vehicles, the
regulations governing such vehicles must be taken into
account.
• The year in which the air heater was operated for the
first time must be permanently recorded on the type
plate. To this end, 3 different years have been printed
on the corresponding field of the type plate. The valid
year is to be identified by removing (detaching) those
two years which are not applicable.
• Heaters have to be installed in accordance with the
mounting instructions. The installation must be
checked by an officially approved specialist or
inspector for road traffic, a motor vehicle specialist or
an employee in accordance with paragraph 7.4 a of the
Annex to the StVZO, and must be certified on the
confirmation of acceptance included in the copy of the
general model approval (ABG) according to
a) § 20 StVZO in case of a type approval of vehicles;
b) § 32 StVZO in case of an individual approval;
c) § 19 StVZO in case of an appraisal.
For case c), the vehicle manufacturer, vehicle model
and vehicle identification number must also be
specified.
The validity of the model approval depends on this.
The confirmation of acceptance must be carried in
the vehicle.
• For vehicles not subject to the StVZO, it is necessary
to observe the specific regulations and mounting
instructions applicable to the given vehicle.
• The heater may only be installed or repaired – in case
of the heater being handed in for repair or guarantee
reasons – by a specialist workshop approved by the
manufacturer (service partner) in keeping with these
mounting instructions and possible special installation
recom-mendations.
• The information sticker ‘Switch off heater before
refuelling’ suppplied with the heater must be attached
in a suitable position on the vehicle (close to the fuel
filler neck).
Important instructions for
the installation and repair
of the HYDRONIC
When mounting or repairing the heater, only original
accessories and original spare parts may be used.
Changes to the
HYDRONIC
or to components relevant to
the heating, the use of outside parts not approved by
Eberspächer as well as an installation or operation
differing from the statutory, safety and /or function relevant specifications contained in the mounting instructions and in the operating instructions are not permissible:
this applies in particular to the electric wiring (circuit
diagrams), the fuel supply, the combustion air and exhaust gas duct.
Fuel pipes and exhaust pipes must be safely fastened,
to avoid damage from vibrations (recommendation: at
intervals of approx. 50 cm).
Ensure that the insulation of electrical lines cannot be damaged due to abrasion, kinking, squeezing or by exposure
to heat.
Only the control elements provided and / or approved by
us, either on their own or in a given combination, may be
used to operate the
HYDRONIC
. The use of other control
elements may lead to malfunctions of the heater / heating
operation.
Non-compliance with the statutory, safety and / or
function relevant specifications leads to the lapse of the
General Design Certification (ABG) of the
HYDRONIC
and to the exclusion of guarantee and liability on the part
of the company J. Eberspächer GmbH & Co. KG.
Please note!
• Further ‘Safety instructions concerning the installation
