Improper use
All other uses not listed under proper use are improper and
therefore prohibited. This applies for example to installation
and operation in:
– 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 instructions and other documents supplied with the
product, and keep them in a safe place for
future reference. The respective valid laws, directives and standards must be observed.
Symbol indicates possible hazards.
Note containing information and tips.
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.
