Connecting the Exhaust Hose

Within the fuel cell methanol and oxygen are converted
into water and carbon dioxide. This chemical reaction
generates off-heat which needs to be conducted
together with water vapour and carbon dioxide to the
outside.
WARNING
Connect the included exhaust hose and conduct the
exhaust to the outside.
Exhaust gasses contain moisture and may exceed
60 °C, causing scalding. Exhaust by-products may
contain injurious substances. Avoid inhaling exhaust
directly or for long periods of time.
It is possible to collect the generated water in a
separate water cartridge. But make sure that there is a
hose that allows the gasses including the carbon
dioxide to evaporate from the water cartridge to the
outside.
 Remove the cap from the exhaust port. Retain the
cap for winter storage or for possible returns.
 Attach the exhaust hose (included) to the exhaust
port.
 Route the hose to the exterior and use a suitable
sealant to seal the opening. The hose may be
shortened as needed. The opening must be 10 mm
in diameter.
 Make sure the exhaust hose has no kinks or
blockage and that exhaust can escape freely.
 The exhaust hose should be as short as possible.
The part of the hose at the outside should not be
longer than 5 cm. Cut diagonally the end of the hose
to avoid the emergence of drops.
