Truma Trumatic S 3002 P Operating Instructions Manual page 9

At temperatures of around 0 °C or less the gas pressure
regulator and the changeover valve should be operated
using the EisEx regulator heater.
Controller connecting hoses that meet national regulations
must always be used in the respective country for which the
equipment is destined. These hoses must be checked regu-
larly for brittleness. Winter-proof special hoses must always
be used if the equipment is operated during the winter.
Pressure regulating devices and hoses must be replaced with
new ones no more than 10 years after their date of manufac-
ture (every 8 years if used commercially). This is the responsi-
bility of the operator.
Important operating notes
The Trumatic S 5002 heater must not be installed in
motor homes! Installing the Trumatic S 3002 (P) in
motor homes is permitted.
Underfloor combustion air intakes must be kept clear of dirt
and snow slush. The intake vent on the heater should not be
located in the spray area of the wheels (if necessary fit a spray
guard).
For winter camping and long-term camping we recommend
the SKV cowl extension kit (part no. 30690-00) that can be
screwed to the cowl section. This must be removed whilst the
vehicle is in motion so that it is not lost (risk of accident).
Snow must be cleared from the cowl before the heater is
started up during the winter.
If you fit a roof cover over your caravan, the exhaust cowl
must always pass right through this cover. For this purpose
use cowl extension UEK (part no. 30630-04)!
If the heater keeps going out in extremely windy locations or
during the winter, we recommend the use of an AKV cowl ex-
tension (part no. 30010-20800). This must be removed whilst
the vehicle is in motion so that it is not lost (risk of accident).
The heat exchanger, the exhaust pipe and all connections
must be checked by an expert at regular intervals, and al-
ways after loud combustion (misfiring).
The exhaust pipe must:
– be firmly attached to the heater and the flue without
leaks,
– consist of one piece (not extended),
– be routed without cross-section narrowing and rising
over its entire length,
– be firmly attached with several clamps together with
the ÜR air duct.
No objects must be placed onto the exhaust pipe, since this
could lead to damage.
Heaters with wrongly fitted or damaged exhaust
pipes or damaged heat exchangers must not con-
tinue to be used!
Never allow the warm air outlet on the heater to be ob-
structed in any way. For instance never hang washing on or
in front of the heater to dry. Misusing your heater in this way
could cause serious damage from overheating. Do not place
flammable objects near the heater. Please follow these guide-
lines in the interest of your own safety.
Due to the design, the front case will become
hot during operation. The operator is obliged
to ensure that due care is taken to protect third
parties (small children in particular).
Directive 2004/78/EC stipulates that a safety shut-off device is
required if motor homes are being heated while driving.
The Truma gas pressure control systems SecuMotion /
MonoControl CS satisfy these requirements.
If no safety shut-off device is installed (e.g. for the
Truma gas pressure control system SecuMotion /
MonoControl CS), the gas cylinder must be closed while driv-
ing and information signs must be attached to the gas cylin-
der protection box and in the vicinity of the control panel.
The safety shut-off device is also recommended for safety
reasons if caravans are being heated while driving.
