2. Check that the relays fitted to the boiler
come on (a slight click can be heard from
the relays when the heating cartridge is
switched on at the control panel).
3. Check whether the overheating protection
has been tripped by unscrewing the black
plastic cap (U) and pressing the reset
button (V).
4. If none of these work, please contact a
service company.
GUARANTEE
Alde's guarantee is valid for one year from
the date of delivery and only covers
materials or manufacturing faults, provided
that the directions for installation and use
have been followed. The guarantee does
not cover frost damage.
NB! Only Alde original parts should be used
as replacement parts.
The boiler is fitted with a built-in warm water
heater with a volume of approx. 8.5 litres
fresh water. The warm water heater can
produce around 12 litres of 40°C water per
half-hour (at a cold water temperature of
10°C). If the heating cartridge is used instead
of gas for heating the boiler, the capacity is
slightly reduced.
Always rinse out the heater before it is used,
particularly if it has not been in operation for
some time.
NB! The hot water is not intended for
drinking or cooking. When the heater is in
continuous use, it should be emptied
approx. once a month, to ensure that a new
air cushion is formed in the heater. The air
cushion is essential for absorbing pressure
surges in the heater.
For emptying specially adapted boilers, as
well as any other freshwater systems in the
vehicle, please refer to the manufacturer's
instructions.
NB! The warm water heater should always
be drained of fresh water when there is a risk
of frost and when the caravan is not in use.
The guarantee does not cover frost damage.
Draining the heater using the combined
safety/drain valve:
1. Switch off the freshwater pump.
2. Open all water taps.
3. Then open the safety/drain valve by
raising the yellow lever (M) to a vertical
position.
4. The heater will now drain directly below
the vehicle through the safety/drain valve
hose. Check that all the water is emptied
out (about 7-10 litres). Leave the valve in
the open position until the next time the
heater is used.
NB! Check that the automatic check valve
(N) is open and is allowing air to enter the
heater when it is being drained, and that the
hose (O) is not blocked.
Fitted Equipment
THE HEATING CARTRIDGE
All compact boilers are fitted with one or two
230 V heating cartridges with a maximum
output of either 2100 or 3150 W. Select the
heating cartridge output by sliding the switch
on the control panel to the desired output
position. Always check that the input fuse of
the vehicle has the correct amperage in
relation to the selected output.
