TROUBLESHOOTING Always start by checking any error messages.
9:1 ERROR MESSAGES Low battery: 12 V supply to boiler has dropped below 10.5 V, possibly causing system brownout. Automatically clears when 12 V supply reaches 11 V. If the voltage decreases, various error messages can also appear. These are not genuine faults. Ensure that the boiler has the right voltage. Fan restarts: Incorrect fan speed. New start attempt is made. Repeated faults results in Fan failure, If Fan failure recurs after resetting, contact a dealer.
The first time you use the heating system, check that the right accessories/functions are activated. This also applies when you supplement the heating system with accessories/functions. Activate accessories/functions by pressing on Installed Accessories, (see fig. 1) and ticking the respective function/accessory to activate.
12. CARE AND MAINTENANCE • Checking and changing glycol mixture. Regularly check the heating system’s fluid level in the expansion tank. The level should be about 1 cm above the minimum mark, with the heating system cold. The heating system should be filled with a fluid mixture made up from water and ethylene glycol. For best results, use high-quality ready-mixed ethylene glycol (with inhibitors) intended for use in aluminium heating systems.
• Always switch off the main isolating switch for the boiler when the vehicle is not in use. • When washing the vehicle, do not spray water directly towards the flue. • When camping in winter conditions, ensure the flue and exhaust air valves are kept clear of snow and ice. • The vehicle may be heated even if the hot water heater is not filled with freshwater. • The LPG boiler and electric element may be operated simultaneously. It does not use more power than necessary.
15. CABLE CONNECTOR COMPACT 3020 HE AND CONTROL PANEL 3020 HE Connect accessories to the boiler and control panel as shown in the diagram below. NB! Do not clamp 12 V cables or sensor cables together with 230 V cables. It is best not to position the cables close to one another. If the cables are bundled together, there is a greater risk of malfunction during operation.
