Truma Combi diesel heating system (option)
The Truma Combi diesel heating system is connected directly to the vehicle's fuel tank. In this case, the vehicle is not equipped with
an LPG regulator with impact detector. You must therefore close your gas bottles when driving.
Safety/drain valve
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic safety valve, which opens as soon as there is a risk of freezing in the vehicle. Once
activated, it must be manually reset.
Start-up
The system must be full to get hot water. The pump must therefore be activated first on the control panel. Activate the safety valve
to remove the air.
Please read the manufacturer's manual before using for the first time.
Refrigerator
The refrigerator air vent covers (option) must be removed if it is gas powered (see chapter 3).
Warning
When storing food, it is important to be aware of the specific operating conditions of a refrigerator installed inside a vehicle. There are
conditions under which the appliance is unable to guarantee the necessary temperature to preserve some highly perishable items,
because:
• when travelling, the refrigerator uses the 12V supply
• when parked, you can choose to run the refrigerator on gas or the 230V supply
• a refrigerator may be located behind a window exposed to the sun
• the vehicle's temperature may vary significantly depending on weather conditions
• the temperature inside a closed stationary vehicle, exposed to sunlight, may exceed 50°C/122°F
• you may need to use the refrigerator shortly after it reaches the optimum temperature.
The following are considered as highly perishable foodstuffs: all products with a use-by date combined with a storage temperature
equal to or below 4°C, specifically meat, fish, poultry, cooked meats and pre-cooked dishes.
Health recommendations
• Pack raw and cooked foods separately using aluminium foil or plastic wrap.
