Read the safety instructions and operating instructions carefully before starting the appliance.
Intended use
Proper use
The appliance is approved solely for installation and operation in caravans and construction trailers of vehicle class O, mo­tor homes of vehicle class M1 and mobile homes if the gas system is installed in accordance with EN 1949. The national legislation and regulations for operating and testing gas in­stallations (e.g. DVGW Work Sheet G 607 in Germany) must be observed.
The appliance may be used only to heat drinking water.
If the appliance is operated while the vehicle is in motion, facilities must be installed to prevent uncontrolled emission of liquefied gas in the event of an accident (according to UN-ECE regulation 122).
If the appliance is being used for commercial purposes, the operator must ensure that special statutory and insurance regulations of the respective destination country are observed (e.g. DGUV regulations in Germany).
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 tak­en in the liquid phase (e.g. for fork lifts) must not be used, since they would result in dam­age to the gas system.

What must I do if I smell gas?
– Avoid ignition sources, e.g. extinguish all
naked flames, do not actuate any electrical switches or use any mobile phones or radios in the vehicle, do not start the vehicle’s en­gine, do not operate any appliances, do not
smoke. – Open windows and doors – Evacuate all persons from the vehicle. – Shut off gas cylinders and/or shut off the gas
supply from the outside. – Have the entire gas system inspected and
repaired by qualified experts. – Do not put the gas system back into oper-
ation until after it has been inspected and
repaired.
Danger of fire/explosion during refuelling! The appliance must not be operated during
refuelling:
– the vehicle, – the caravan’s towing vehicle or – other appliances.
Switch off the LP gas appliance at the control panel. Shut off the gas supply to the LP gas appliance. Make sure that the LP gas appli­ance can definitely not be switched on under any circumstances.
Repairs may only be carried out by an expert!
Hot water can be dangerous and cause
burn injuries, particularly for toddlers, children, older or infirm persons. Check the water temperature every time before shower­ing or bathing.
This appliance may be used by children
from 8 years old and by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabil­ities or with a lack of experience only if they are supervised or have been instructed in the safe use of the appliance and understand the resulting risks.
In order to prevent any hazards caused
by unintentional resetting of the over­temperature sensor, the appliance must not be supplied with power via an external switching device such as a time switch, or connected to a power circuit that is regularly switched on and off by a device.
The operating pressure of the gas supply
(30 mbar) must be the same as the oper­ating pressure of the appliance (see type plate).
The appliance, the gas system and the
exhaust duct for the combustion prod­ucts must be inspected by a recognised expert in accordance with the national regulations (e.g. DVGW Worksheet G 607 in Germany) or, if there are no such regulations, at least every two years.
– A recognised specialist must carry out a leak
test after changes have been made to the liquid gas system.
– The vehicle owner is responsible for having
the check carried out.
Any unusual burner noise or flame blow-
off suggests a fault in the gas pressure regulation system, and makes it necessary to check the gas pressure regulation system.
Never use objects (e.g. spray cans, can-
dles) or flammable materials, liquids, gaseous substances or vapours in the vicinity of the appliance, in the installation compart­ment or in the appliance itself.
It is prohibited to use products contain-
ing chlorine on and inside the appliance.
Only gas pressure regulating systems
that comply with EN 16129 (in vehicles) with a fixed output pressure of 30 mbar may be used for the gas systems. The flow rate of the gas pressure regulation system must at least match the maximum consumption of all the appliances installed by the system manufacturer.
Children must not be allowed to play with the appliance.
