Other important information or tips

Safety behavior and practices

Ensuring a safe operating environment

• Suffocation through exhaust
gases. To ensure dissipation of exhaust
gases, operate the appliance outdoors only.

– Never use in enclosed spaces or tents or

breathe in the exhaust gases.

– If installing an awning, make sure that

the exhaust system terminates to the
outdoors.

– If you park the RV in an enclosed space,

such as a garage or repair shop:
· You must block the fuel supply.
· You must switch the appliance off at

the control panel.

• The operator is responsible for the water
filled into the appliance and its quality.

• The use of upright gas cylinders from which
gas is taken in the gas phase is manda­tory for the operation of gas regulators, gas
equipment and gas systems. Gas cylinders
from which gas is taken in the liquid phase
(e. g. for forklifts) must not be used, since
they would result in damage to the gas sys­tem.

• For your own safety it is absolutely neces­sary to have the complete gas installation
regularly checked by an expert (at least every
2 years). The vehicle owner is always respon­sible for arranging the gas inspection.

• Use the appliance only with a functioning LP
gas and carbon monoxide detector installed
in the RV. For installation, operation and func­tion test follow the manufacturer’s guidelines.

4

Safe operation

• Use with LP gas (propane) only. Butane or
any mixtures containing more than 10% bu­tane must not be used.

– LP tanks must be filled by a qualified gas

supplier only.

• The nominal gas system pressure must be

10.5 in. wc.

• Hot water can be dangerous, especially for
infants, children, the elderly, or infirm. It can
cause severe burns. Therefore:

– Never actuate the pressure reliefvalve

(Fig. 1 – 4 ) as long as the appliance is still
hot.

– Never actuate the Easy Drain Lever

(Fig. 1 – 11) as long as the appliance is
under water pressure and/or still hot.

– Always check the water temperature

before entering a shower or bath.

• How long before hot water causes skin dam­age?

Time before skin becomes
scalded

• The water pressure on the inlet side must be
limited to 65 psi (4.5 bar), otherwise internal
components of the appliance will be dam­aged. On (city) water connections with a
pressure higher than 65 psi (4.5 bar) a pres­sure regulator is strongly recommended.

• Shut OFF gas and the LP tank when moving
the RV. This disables all gas appliances and
pilot lights. Gas appliances must never be
operated while the vehicle is in motion.

• Shut OFF the appliance when refueling or
pumping gas, in multi-storey car parks, in
garages or on ferries.

• To avoid damage, make sure no spray water
enters the appliance when cleaning the RV,
e.g., do not spray directly into the openings/
venting grid.

Safe handling of malfunctions

• Switch OFF the gas supply and the appliance:

– if anything seems to be out of the ordinary.
– if you smell gas.

• Fire / explosion if you attempt
to use an appliance that has been dam­aged by flooding or if the vehicle has been
involved in an accident. A damaged appli­ance must be repaired by an expert or be
replaced.

• Only carry out repairs yourself if the solution
is described in the troubleshooting guide of
this manual.

• A damaged appliance may have to be re­placed with a new one.

Safe maintenance and repair

• Repairs may only be carried out by an expert.

• Children must not carry out maintenance,
repair or cleaning work.

• Before accessing terminals, please secure all
supply circuits (i.e. 12 V) and ensure that the
gas supply is securely turned off.

While driving

• To avoid damage, make sure the access door
(Fig. 1 – 20) to the appliance is closed before
moving the RV, as follows:

– Turn lock is engaged.
– Access door is flush with the cover plate.

• Any work involving connection or intercon­necting wiring must be carried out by a
licensed electrician.

5

• Only use Truma AquaGo® decalcification tab­lets to decalcify the appliance to avoid dam­age and the voiding of your warranty. Never
use vinegar. Call your local AquaGo® dealer
or service provider or see www.truma.net for
more information.

– The use of non-Truma-approved sub-

stances for decalcification can cause
chemical reactions and produce haz­ardous substances that could enter the
drinking water.

Safety features

The appliance is equipped with the following
safety devices:

Flame monitoring

If the flame goes out, the gas supply to the
burner is switched off (after 3 failed restarts).

Low-voltage (over-voltage) shutdown

If the voltage drops below 10 VDC (or rises
above 16.4 VDC), the appliance shuts off.

• Any alteration to the appliance or its controls
can cause unforeseen serious hazards and
will void the warranty.

• After a long period of winterization: Flush all
hot/cold water hoses and the appliance thor­oughly with drinking water before using it.

• Keep the appliance free of foreign objects,
e.g., leaves, animals, spiderwebs, and keep
the area around free of snow and ice. The
appliance will not function properly if the
intake air or exhaust terminal is obstructed.

Overcurrent protection

If there is a short circuit in the appliance (>10A),
a fuse on the control unit is activated and the
appliance is switched off.

Monitoring of the flue fan

If there is a failure of the flue fan, the gas supply
to the burner is switched off.

Monitoring of hot water temperature

A water over temperature switch avoids exces­sively high water temperatures in case of a fault.

Operating Instructions

Read and follow the “Consumer Safety In­formation” before operating the appliance.

Scalding injuries caused by hot water!

Water temperatures over 127ºF (52ºC) can
cause severe burns or scalding and in extreme
cases even death.

• Before using the hot water faucet or using
the shower, allow the hot water to run until
the water temperature no longer increases.

• Test the temperature of the water before
placing a child in the bath or shower.

• Do not leave a child or an infirm person in
the bath unsupervised.

How the appliance works

The appliance was developed exclusively for use
in recreational vehicles (RVs).

• After some time the maximum temperature
at the faucet or in the shower is reached.
The length of time will depend on the model
(AquaGo® basic, AquaGo® comfort and
AquaGo® comfort plus) and variations in the
water plumbing (length of pipes, insulation,
circulation line, etc.).
Like in a home shower, a comfortable water
temperature at the shower head is reached
by mixing in cold water.

• When the volume flow is less than approxi­mately 0.4 gallons/min (1.5 liter/min) and the
faucet is closed, the burner is automatically
switched off.

The AquaGo® comfort and AquaGo®
comfortplus models are equipped with a cir-

culation pump. The circulation pump as well as
the burner are switched on automatically by the
control unit in order to keep the water tempera­ture above 102°F (39°C) in “COMFORT” mode
and 41°F (5°C) in “ECO” mode.

The appliance is connected between the ve­hicle’s fresh water supply and its hot water
plumbing system.

It is powered by propane and a 12 V power
supply. The ventilation grid on the access door
allows combustion air to flow into the appliance
and exhaust gas to flow out.

When the appliance is switched on, the water
will be warmed on demand:

• A volume-flow sensor in the appliance de­tects when the hot water faucet has been
opened and the volume flow is greater than
approximately 0.4gallons/min (1.5 liter/min).
The burner then starts automatically.

• The burner control continously adjusts the
heater output based on volume flow and
inlet water temperature, so that the tempera­ture at the hot water outlet is approximately
120°F (49°C). A temperature stabilizer is
also installed in the appliance to minimize
fluctuations of the outlet temperature.

Risk of damage in frosty conditions.

Refer to “Winter operation” on page12.
