Operating instructions
38
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.
The Heating Cartridges
All Compact 3010s are tted with two 230V heating
cartridges with a maximum output of 3150 W. Select
the heating cartridge output on the control panel.
Always check that the input fuse of the vehicle has
the correct amperage in relation to the selected
output. Note these ratings are for the boiler only.
1050 W requires a 6 amp fuse. 2100 W requires a
10 amp fuse. 3150 W requires a 16 amp fuse.
The Circulation Pump
A circulation pump is required to circulate the
heated glycol uid. A 12V circulation pump is tted
in the expansion tank. An optional 230V circulation
pump can be tted on the boiler. Selection of the
circulation pump, i.e. switches it on or off according
to the amount of heat required. For normal operation
pump speed 1 or 2 should be used. Higher pump
speeds will cause premature failure. Speed setting
4 or 5 should only be used for short periods (2-5
minutes) to bleed the system after lling.
System Temperature
The boiler is set to a system temperature of 80°C,
i.e. the temperature of the glycol uid as it circulates
in the heating system.
Air Circulation
In order to achieve the best possible result from
the principle of connected heat, it is important
to allow air to circulate freely under bunks, and
behind backrests and wall-mounted cabinets. It is
important that cushions or blankets do not interrupt
the ow of air behind backrests and wall cabinets.
Maintaining the Heating System
Winter Camping
While camping during the winter, ensure that the
ue is kept clear of snow and ice, since the inlet air
to the LPG boiler enters through the ue. Do not
start the LPG boiler until the ue is completely free
of snow.
The LPG System
The LPG system should be checked regularly by
a professional, who will ensure that there are no
leaks from connections or hoses. LPG hoses should
be changed according to national regulations,
maximum of ve years. Check the date stamp on
the hose. Hose has a propensity to dry out and
crack. To increase safety, we recommend tting an
Alde leak gauge, type 4071, as close as possible to
the pressure reduction valve.
