TRUMA COMBI BOILER
Every care is taken to ensure that the infor­mation provided in this handbook is correct and easy to understand.
Separate manufacturers’ leaflets on many of the components are also included in the Owner’s Pack provided with this caravan and we recommend that you compare the instructions in the handbook with the com­ponent manufacturers literature, to ensure the information provided is as accurate as possible.
If you are in any doubt as to how to oper­ate the equipment in your caravan, please contact the component manufacturer’s service department on the telephone num­ber shown on their component leaflet. If you remain in any doubt, please contact your supplying dealer.
Notice: In the interest of safety, replacement parts for an appliance shall conform to the appliance manufacturer’s specifications and should be fitted by them or their authorised agents.
Truma Combination Boiler
The Truma Combination boiler has been designed to run on gas or electric power and the optimum performance is obtained when used in dual fuel mode, that is running on
gas and electric at the same time.
Running in dual mode has the following benefits:
• Fastest possible heat up time, the gas burner combines with an electric element to provide energy to heat your hot water and warm your caravan.
• The intelligent heat management system automatically senses when the water and room are nearing the required temperature and then automatically turns off your gas burner and operates solely on electric power, conserving your gas.
• As hot water is used or the room cools the Truma combination heater will continue to operate on electric only until a point where the demands necessitate that additional gas power is required. An example for such a demand could be for instance if the exterior door was left open and the room temperature dropped by 10 degrees in the space of a few minutes, in this case the intelligent heat management system would decide the best way to get the room back to the required temperature would be to use both gas and electric at the same time.
Operating the Truma Combination system on electric or gas only will result in longer heat up times for hot water and the room temperature in comparison to operating on dual fuel.
Operating on electric only may not in all cases maintain a comfortable room temperature especially in colder conditions.
The intelligent heat management system in dual fuel mode allows the Truma Combination boiler to prioritize the electric power source over your gas, this will conserve your gas supply.

Truma Heating System and Air Flow
The Swift Group undertakes considerable testing of our products in cold chambers to ensure they meeting the BS EN 1649 Grade 3 standard and are usable in cold temperatures. During this testing, the air flow on the blown air outlets is defined and set by us.
Butterfly outlets
Blown air
The air ducting outlets on some models are of the butterfly type, and if fitted these may be opened or closed by adjusting the butterfly valves. Twisting the disc in its housing directs the flow in the direction required. One outlet on each leg of the air ducting layout must be kept open at all times, and when high specification (Combi 6) heating systems are fitted, depending on the number of blown air outlets in the layout, butterfly fittings may not be present.
Under no circumstances should the air ducting outlets be blocked.
Note: The next instructions detail the operation of the Combi Control Panel

TRUMA COMBI BOILER FAULT FINDING
FITTED EQUIPMENT

Truma Combination Heating System Function Description
The liquid gas heater Combi E is a warm-air heater with integrated hot water boiler (10 liter volume). The burner operates fan-supported, which ensures trouble-free function even when on the move. The unit also has heating elements for electrical operation.
In winter operation the heater can be used to heat the room and simultaneously warm water.
3 different options are available for operating the unit.
– gas operation only Propane / Butane for
autonomous use
– electrical operation only 230 V for stationary
use on camp sites
– or gas and electrical operation – mixed
operation only possible in winter mode.
Winter operation (Space heating with water heating)
In winter operation, the unit automatically selects the required power setting according to the temperature difference between the temperature set on the control panel and the current room temperature. When the boiler is filled, the water is automatically heated as well. The water temperature depends on the selected operational mode and the heater output. All 3 energy selection options can be used for winter deployment.
With gas operation the unit automatically selects the output level that is required. Depending on the fuse protection at the camping site, power of 900 W (3.9 A) or 1800 W (7.8 A) can be manually selected for electrical operation.
If more output is required (e.g. heating up or low outside temperatures) gas or mixed operation should be selected so that enough heating power is always available. With mixed operation, 230 V electrical operation is preferred if the power requirement is low (e.g. for maintaining the room temperature). The gas burner is not enabled until the power requirement is higher, and is the first to switch off during heat-up operations.
Summer operation (Water heating only)
Gas operation or 230 V electrical operation is used for hot water preparation. The water temperature can be set to 40 °C or 60 °C. With gas operation the water is heated at the lowest burner setting. Once the water temperature is reached, the burner switches off. Depending on the fuse protection at the camping site, power of 900 W (3.9 A) or
1800 W (7.8 A) can be manually selected for electrical operation. Mixed operation is not possible. With this
setting the unit automatically selects electrical operation. The gas burner is not enabled.
Repairs may only be carried out by an expert
Guarantee claims, warranty claims and acceptance of liability will be ruled out in the event of the following:
– modifications to the unit
(including accessories),
– modifications to the exhaust duct and
the cowl,
– failure to use original Truma parts as
replacement parts and accessories,
– failure to follow the installation and operating
instructions.
It also becomes illegal to use the appliance, and in some countries this even makes it illegal to use the vehicle.
During the initial operation of a brand new appliance (or after it has not been used for some time), a slight amount of fumes and smell may be noticed for a short while. It is a good idea to heat the device up several times in summer operation (60 °C) and to make sure that the area is well ventilated. Heat-sensitive objects such as spray cans
or flammable liquids may not be stored in the same compartment where the heater is installed because, under certain conditions, this area may be subject to elevated temperatures.
Important operating notes
The integrity and tight fit of the exhaust gas
TRUMA COMBI BOILER
FITTED EQUIPMENT

double duct must be checked regularly, particularly at the end of long trips. Also check the mounting of the appliance and the cowl. Following a blow-back (misfire) always have the exhaust gas system checked by an expert! Always keep the cowl for the exhaust duct and combustion air intake free of contamination (slush, ice, leaves etc.). A number of hot air outlets and the recirculated air intake openings must be free so that the unit does not overheat. The integrated temperature limiter blocks the gas supply when the unit becomes too hot.
Operating Instructions
Always observe the operating instructions and “Important operating notes” prior to starting! The vehicle owner is responsible for the correct operation of the appliance. Before using for the first time, it is essential to flush the entire water supply system through with clean water. If the heater is not being used, always drain the water contents if there
is a risk of frost. There shall be no claims under guarantee for damage caused by frost!
Room thermostat
To measure the room temperature, a room temperature sensor is fitted to the furniture. The exact location is determined by the layout of the vehicle.
Taking into operation
Heating is possible without restrictions with gas, electrical and mixed operation, with or without water. Check to make sure the cowl is unobstructed. Be sure to remove any covers that may be present.
For operating on gas turn on gas cylinder and open the shut off valve at the manifold. For operating on electric operate the water heater switch on the power supply unit. See page 71.
Filling the water heater
Switch on power for water pump (main or pump switch) to prime the water system. Open hot water taps in kitchen and bathroom, (set preselecting mixing taps or single-lever fittings to “hot”). Leave the fittings open for as long as it takes for the boiler to displace the air and fill up, and the water to flow without interruption.
If just the cold water system is being operated, without using the water heater, the heater tank also fills up with water. To avoid frost damage, the boiler must be drained through the drain valve, even if the boiler was not operated.
When connecting to a central water supply (rural or city mains), a pressure reduction valve must always be installed to prevent pressures above 2.8 bar from developing in the water heater.
Draining the water heater
Switch off power to water pump (main or pump switch). Open hot water taps in kitchen and bathroom. In order to check the water that is flowing out, place an appropriate container (capacity 10 litres) beneath the drain valve.
Open the drain valve which is situated next to the boiler by lifting the yellow handle into the vertical position.
Check whether all of the water in the boiler (10 itres) has been drained into the container via the drain valve.
There shall be no claims under guarantee for damage caused by frost!
Maintenance
Only original Truma parts may be used for maintenance and repair work! Materials in the device which come into contact with water are suitable for use with drinking water (see manufacturer‘s declaration: www.truma.com /
downloads / manufacturer‘s declaration).
Bio-film, deposits and limescale must be removed using chemicals to protect the unit from infestation by microorganisms. Only chloride-free products must be used in order to prevent damage to the unit. The effectiveness of the use of chemicals to combat microorganisms in the unit can be increased by heating the water in the boiler to
70 °C at regular intervals. The unit must stay switched on for at least 30 minutes and no warm water may be removed. The residual heat in the heat exchanger will heat the water up to 70 °C.

Alde Compact 3010
Challenger and Eccles SE, Conqueror, Elite and Cameo based models
Please read these instructions carefully before using the boiler.
These instructions are approved for The Alde Compact 3010 boiler fitted in caravans, motor caravans and buildings in accordance with CE no. EMC e5 02 0138, 845 BP-0003.
Installation and repairs may only be carried out by a professional. National regulations must be adhered to.
Boiler design
The boiler consists of three eccentrically- fitted cylinders (heat exchanger, water jacket for the heating system and, outermost, water jacket for hot water). The two outer pipes, and their ends and connections, are made of stainless steel, while the heat exchanger is made of aluminium.
The heat exchanger is divided into two semi­circles. The burner is located in the upper half, being the combustion chamber, and the combustion gases are expelled through the lower half. The burner unit is fitted on the end of the heat exchanger. It consists of a combustion fan, burner, solenoid valve and intake/exhaust connections. Two heating cartridges are fitted to the water jacket of the heating system. Maximum output is 2 or 3 kW, depending on model.
Description of functions
Using LPG
When LPG operation is selected on the control panel, the combustion fan starts. When the fan speed is correct, it signals the circuit board that the boiler can be lit. The circuit board sends ignition sparks to the spark plug at the same time as it sends electricity to the solenoid valve, which opens to allow gas in. The burner ignites, and a sensor transmits a signal back to the circuit board that the boiler is lit, and the ignition spark stops. The burner keeps burning until the boiler thermostat or the room thermostat reaches the set temperature reading.
Should the boiler go out for any reason, the sensor is activated and a new attempt is made to start the boiler (in about 10 seconds).
ALDE HEATING OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
FITTED EQUIPMENT
113
Using the heating cartridge
Electrical operation is selected on the control panel, the 12-volt relays on the circuit board trip, allowing the 230 volt supply to reach the electrical elements.
The heating cartridge is controlled in the same way as the gas boiler.
Warm water
When only warm water is required, for example during the summer, no settings need to be made, the boiler will look after this function automatically.
The pump will only start when the temperature in the vehicle is lower than the set temperature (see item 4, Control Panel). If the vehicle temperature is higher, the pump will not start.
Important information
• The boiler must not be started if there is no glycol in the system.
• The LPG boiler and heating cartridge may be operated in parallel.
• The heating system may be heated up without the warm water heater being filled with fresh water.
• Always switch off the main isolator for the boiler when the vehicle is not being used.
• Always drain the warm water heater of fresh water if there is a risk of frost.
• The LPG boiler must not be operated when refuelling the vehicle.
• When washing the vehicle, take care not to get water in the venting.
! WARNING: Care should be taken
to ensure adequate ventilation of the flue at all times. Its is inadvisable to inhale exhaust fumes.
The Domestic hot water heater
The boiler is fitted with a built-in warm water heater with a volume of approx. 8.5-litres fresh water. The warm water heater can produce around 12 litres of 40°C water per half-hour (at a cold water temperature of 10°C). If the heating cartridges are used instead of gas for heating the boiler, the capacity is slightly reduced. Always rinse out the heater before it is used, particularly if it has not been in operation for some time.
Note: The hot water is not intended for drinking or cooking.
When the heater is in continuous use, it should be emptied approx. once a month, to ensure that a new air cushion is formed in the heater.
The air cushion is essential for absorbing pressure surges in the heater.
Note: The warm water heater should always be drained of fresh water when there is a risk of frost and when the caravan is not in use.
The warranty does not cover frost damage.
Draining the heater using the combined safety/drain valve:
1. Switch off the freshwater pump
2. Open all water taps.
3. Then open the safety/drain valve by raising the yellow lever (M) to a vertical position.
4. The heater will now drain directly below the vehicle through the safety/drain valve hose. Check that all the water is emptied out (about 7-10 litres). Leave the valve in the open position until the next time the heater is used.
Note: Check that the automatic check valve (N) is open and is allowing air to enter the heater when it is being drained, and that the hose (O) is not blocked.

The heating cartridges
All Compact 3010s are fitted with two 230V heating cartridges with a maximum output of either 2100 or 3150W. Select the heating cartridge output on the control panel.
Always check that the input supply of the vehicle has the correct amperage in relation to the selected output.
Note these ratings are for the boiler only.
1050W requires a 6 amp fuse/supply. 2100W requires a 10 amp fuse/supply. 3150W requires a 16 amp fuse/supply.
The circulation pump
A circulation pump is required to circulate the heated glycol fluid. A 12V circulation pump is fitted in the expansion tank.
An optional 230V circulation pump can be fitted on the boiler. Selection of circulation pump is made with a switch on the control panel. The room thermostat on the control panel controls the circulation pump, i.e. switches it on or off according to the amount of heat required.
System temperature
The boiler is set to a system temperature of 80°C, i.e. the temperature of the glycol fluid as it circulates in the heating system.
Air circulation
In order to achieve the best possible result from the principle of convected heat, it is important to allow air to circulate freely under bunks, and behind backrests and wall­mounted cabinets.
If the vehicle has a fitted carpet, ensure that the carpet does not obstruct the air supply to the radiators.
It is just as important that cushions or blankets do not interrupt the flow of air behind backrests and wall cabinets.
Note: During the first weeks of ownership customers may notice a drop in the glycol level and/or blocked radiators. This is normal as the system settles.
Maintaining the heating system
Winter camping
While camping during the winter, ensure that the flue is kept clear of snow and ice, since the inlet air to the LPG boiler enters through the flue. Do not start the LPG boiler until the flue is completely free of snow. A flue extension (part no. 3000 320) for fitting on the roof is recommended for winter camping.
Air stream
Convectors
The heating system
Regularly check the heating system’s fluid level in the expansion tank. The level should be about 1cm above the minimum indicator in a cold tank. The heating system should be filled with a mixture of water and glycol.
For preference, use high quality ready mixed glycol (with inhibitor) intended for use in aluminium heating systems.
If using concentrated glycol, the mixture should consist of 50% water and 50% glycol. If the heating system will be exposed to temperatures below -25°C, the glycol content must be increased, but not to more than 50%. Any vessels used for the liquid must be spotlessly clean, and the pipes in the heating system must be free of contamination. This will prevent the growth of bacteria in the system.
ALDE HEATING OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
FITTED EQUIPMENT
115
The glycol mixture should be changed every second year, since its ability to protect against corrosion, for example, will deteriorate. The glycol content should be checked before topping up with new liquid. This will ensure that the concentration of glycol in the mixture is not too high.
If the fluid level in the expansion tank falls for reasons other than evaporation, please check all joints, drain cocks and bleeder screws to ensure that they are not leaking. If the glycol­water mixture leaks out, rinse with water and wipe up.
Never allow the heating system to stand empty of glycol.
Filling the system with glycol fluid
Note: Any vessels used to carry the fluid
must be spotlessly clean and the pipes in the system must be free of contamination. This will prevent the growth of bacteria in the system.
The system is filled through the expansion tank, either manually or using the Alde filling pump which both tops up and bleeds the system. For manual filling, unfasten the circulation pump nut (R) and lift the pump (S) out of the tank. Slowly pour the glycol mixture into the tank. Bleed the system.
Top up with more liquid if the level has fallen after bleeding. Bleed a newly filled system regularly during the first days the heating system is in operation.

Types of glycol
Various types of antifreeze (as used in car radiators) are available from service stations, car accessory shops and on line retailers and these types of antifreeze can be used to top up or replace the heating system fluid in the Alde heating system.
Frost and corrosion damage are not covered under warranty, so it is important that the type purchased contains corrosion inhibitors suitable for use with aluminium systems. Always check the label, ask the retailer for advice, or check with your supplying dealer if unsure. Please note the corrosion inhibitor will have a limited life, and after it expires, the system will have no corrosion protection.
The fluid will usually be named as Ethylene glycol, but may also be described as monoethylene glycol, MEG, ethanediol, or G12++. There is no industry standard for the colour of the antifreeze, but as a general guideline it indicates the type of corrosion inhibitor:
Blue, Green - Silicate inhibitor, usually offering 2-year corrosion protection
Red, Orange - OAT inhibitor, usually offering 5-year corrosion protection
Purple, Magenta - G12++ Silicated OAT inhibitor, usually offering 5 year corrosion protection
It is important that antifreeze containing Silicate inhibitor (Blue or Green) is not mixed with antifreeze containing OAT inhibitor (Red or Orange). To guarantee compatibility, there are two options:
1. Match the colour, taking care to also check the label on the antifreeze bottle, i.e. if the system is filled with blue silicate-containing antifreeze, top up with blue silicate­containing antifreeze.
2. Use G12++ antifreeze which is compatible with any of the other types of inhibitor described.
FITTED EQUIPMENT

Bleeding the system
Depending on how the pipes have been fitted, air pockets may form when the system is filled with glycol fluid.
A sign that there is air trapped in the system is that the heat released into the pipes only extends a metre or so from the boiler even though the circulation pump is operating.
In newly-filled systems, small air bubbles can form in the expansion tank, creating a murmuring sound. If the circulation pump is stopped for a few seconds, the bubbles will disappear.
Bleeding:
If a bleeder screw is fitted to the outgoing pipe, open this bleeder screw and leave it open until it starts to discharge water.
If the boiler is fitted with an automatic bleeder, there is no need to bleed it manually. Start the LPG boiler. The circulation pump should be switched off.
Open the remaining bleeder screws in the system (please refer to the instruction manual of the vehicle for their locations). Leave the bleeder screws open until they start discharging fluid, and then close them. Start the circulation pump and let it run for a while. Check that the pipes and radiators around the vehicle are heating up.
If there are still issues, try the following:
Single-axle caravan:
Stop the circulation pump. Lower the front of the caravan as far as possible. Leave it in this position for a few minutes to allow the air to travel upwards in the system. Open the bleeder screw at the highest point. Leave it open until it discharges glycol fluid. Raise the front of the caravan as far as possible and repeat the procedure in this position.
Then position the caravan horizontally and start the circulation pump. Check that the pipes and radiators around the vehicle are heating up.
Twin-axle caravan:
The easiest way to bleed the heating system is to place the vehicle on a sloping surface or to raise one end of the vehicle using a jack. Bleed the system as described above.
Fault finding
The boiler does not start
1. No LPG? Incorrect type for conditions?
2. Is the main tap fully open?
3. If the boiler has not been operated for some time, or if the gas cylinder has been changed, it may take longer than normal to light the boiler.
4. Check that the boiler is connected to the electricity supply (> 11V).
5. Check that the fuse (T) for the boiler is intact.
6. Check whether the electric connections on the boiler are securely in position.
If none of the above helps, contact a service workshop.
The heating cartridge is not working
1. Check that there is an electricity supply (230V ~) to the heating cartridge.
2. Check that the relays fitted to the boiler come on (a slight click can be heard from the relays when the heating cartridge is switched on at the control panel).
If none of the above helps, contact a service workshop.
