7. Installation of electrical devices
The installation of electrical devices in the HOBBY caravan has been
carried out in accordance with the valid regulations and standards.
Please note
• Do not remove the signs on electrical components
giving safety instructions or danger warnings.
• The installation spaces around electrical equipment
such as distribution fuse boards, electric power
supply, etc., may not be used as additional storage
spaces.
• Smoking and naked flame are forbidden when che-
cking electrical equipment.
• Inexpert handling of the vehicle's electrical system
may endanger your own life as well as that of others.
• The standard version of the caravan is not equipped
for internal battery supply (self-sufficient operation).
To connect to an external 230 V mains connection,
use only a weather-proof, 3-wire extension cord with
a CEE plug and connector.
• To operate 12V devices (e.g. cooler, etc.) safely while
driving, please ensure that the car delivers sufficient
voltage. In some cars, the vehicle's operating system
protects the battery by switching off devices. For
further information, please contact the manufacturer
of your car.
Advice and instructions
Important
• The caravan's electric system should preferably be inspected wi-
thin a period of less than three years. If the caravan is used fre-
quently, an electrical engineering specialist should inspect the
electric system every year.
• Only specialists may make possible changes to the electrical system.
• If necessary, disconnect the battery and switch off the 230V mains be-
fore carrying out maintenance work.
Batteries*
• Please observe the battery manufacturer's operating instructions.
• The acid in the battery is poisonous and corrosive. Avoid contact
with eyes and skin.
230V automatic circuit breaker with an earth leakage circuit breaker
The 230V automatic circuit breaker supplies and protects the
230V devices.
• To switch off the 230V power supply in the entire system, set the
230V automatic circuit breaker to "0" (OFF).
