The instructions address the following topics:
heating the caravan
ventilation of the caravan
opening and closing the hinged windows
opening and closing the lifting roof
modifying the table surfaces
removing tables
extending the seating group (Troll)
use of the beds
6.1 Heating
6.2 Ventilation
Ensure that there is a continuous exchange of air by providing frequent and efficient ventilation. This
is the only method for ensuring that condensation is not formed during cool weather. During the
colder season, a comfortable living climate is created by a balance of heating performance, air dis-
tribution and ventilation. If the caravan is laid up for a longer period, occasionally ventilate it
well, especially in summer as heat accumulation can occur.
During heater operation, the exhaust gas pipe in the wardrobe will get hot. Therefore
do not keep any heat-sensitive garments right next to the exhaust gas pipe (see also
chapter 9).
The oxygen in the vehicle interior is used up by breathing or the use of the gas cooker
etc. and must therefore be continuously replaced. For this reason the caravan fea-
tures forced ventilations. Never cover or block forced ventilations with objects as e. g.
a winter mat. Keep forced ventilations clear of snow and leaves. There is a danger of
suffocation due to an increased CO
2
level.
The lifting roof is fitted with ventilation zips which can be opened for additional venti-
lation
> Although sufficient ventilation is provided, in certain weather conditions, condensation
can form on metal objects (e. g. screwed connections in the floor).
> In extreme weather conditions, condensation can form on the double-glazed acrylic
glass. The glass is so designed that condensation can evaporate when the outside
temperature is increased. There is no danger of the double-glazed acrylic glass being
damaged by condensation.
> Additional cold spots can occur at thermal "bridges" (e. g. lifting roofs, sockets, filler
necks, flaps, etc.).
