Installation instructions

Read the installation instructions care-
fully before commencing the work, and
then comply with them!
Non-compliance with installation instructions or
incorrect installation can result in endangerment
of persons and property.

Intended use

This appliance has been designed for installation in vehicles
(mobile homes, caravans, boats, trucks). Other applications
are also possible following consul tation with Truma.
Installation inside busses (vehicle classes M2 and M3) is not
permitted.
Vehicles for class EX/II and EX/III hazardous materials
Combustion heaters for gaseous fuel are not permitted.

Approval

Directive 2004/78/EC stipulates that a safety shut-off device
is required if motor homes are being heated while driving.
The Truma MonoControl CS gas pressure regulation system
satisfies these requirements.
A type-tested liquid gas heater may be operated while driving
throughout Europe in accordance with EC directive 2001/56/EC
by installing a safety shut-off device such as the Truma
MonoControl CS gas pressure regulation system with an
appropriately designed gas installation.
The safety shut-off device is also recommended for safety
reasons if caravans are being heated while driving.
The heater is approved for installation in motor vehicles for
transporting passengers (motor caravans in vehicle class M1)
that have no more than 8 seats excluding the driver's seat, for
trailers (caravans in vehicle class O) and for commercial vehi-
cles (vehicle class N).
The year when the equipment was first taken into oper-
ation must be indicated with a check on the type plate.

Regulations

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.
Installation in road vehicles must comply with the legal pro-
visions of the country of use (e.g. for Europe EN 1949 for
vehicles). National directives and regulations (e.g. DVGW
worksheet G 607 for vehicles and G 608 for boats in Germany)
must be complied with.
In the case of vehicles used for commercial purposes, the respec-
tive accident prevention regulations issued by the professional as-
sociations are to be adhered to (e.g. for Germany BGV D 34).
For further details on the rules and regulations in the respec-
tive country of desig-nation, please contact our agencies
abroad (see Truma Service Booklet or www.truma.com).
Notes on the installation in commercial
vehicles
The TÜV-tested cylinder holder
(part no. 39742-00) is a constituent
of the type approval for Trumatic E
heaters in accordance with heater
directive 2001/56/EC. Here it is
stated that 2 gas cylinders with a
contents of max. 15 kg can be con-
nected and used for operating the
heaters while the vehicle is moving.
For the protection of the cylinder
valve and the gas pressure regula-
tor, just the protective cover pro-
vided with the cylinder bracket
is required.
For protection against theft or for
reasons of appearance, the gas
cylinder can also be concealed us-
ing the lockable cylinder cabinet
(part no. 39010-21100). The cabinet
is bolted with the cylinder bracket
to the vehicle frame.
When installing the heater in special vehicles (e.g. vehicles for
transporting hazardous goods), the respective regulations for
such vehicles must be observed.

Notes on installation in driver's cab

In the case of heating systems where the waste gas is guided
below the vehicle floor, the waste gas cowl outlet must be
attached up to the side or rear edge of the driver's cab or the
vehicle. Steps must be taken to ensure that no waste gases
can enter the inside of the vehicle (e.g. from below through
the vehicle floor).
Model-related assembly instructions can be obtained from Truma.
In Germany, for tank vehicles carrying hazardous goods in the
field of application covered by the ADR, the appliance is only
approved with the Truma control unit.
