    For daily use, see "Application and use" on page 8. If you do not intend to use the CABIN 400 for a period of four weeks or more, the system must be put into storage mode in order to prevent sediment and contaminant build-up in the water reservoir and the OXYCELL (heat exchangers) in the roof unit.

    Failure to do so will invalidate the warranty. Standards The CABIN 400 meets all relevant technical standards and certification. The unit has been tested to EN 60335-1and EN 60335-2-40. The conformity tests were performed by TüV- Rheinland (Germany) and DARE Consultancy in Woerden (the Netherlands).

    230 Volt mains connection. Power supply when travelling When the CABIN 400 is used during the journey to the final destination, the electrical supply is provided by the 12 Volt battery via a static converter. Even though the unit consumes very little power, it should be noted that it can flatten the battery.
  • Page 9 Application and use Note When the vehicle is not in use, the static converter should be switched of at the main isolator. Otherwise the unit will continue to draw a small amount of power, which could flatten the batteries. Ventilation and cooling The operator panel on the OXYZONE is used to set the desired level of ventilation or cooling (see "Adjusting ventilation settings"...
