Connection possibilities In order to be prepared for all connection possibilities, Dethleffs recommends
the following combinations:
Only allow qualified personnel to work on the electrical system.
The external 240 V power supply must be protected by fuse with a fault
current protection switch (FI-switches, 30 mA).
Always disconnect the electrical connection between the towing vehicle
and the caravan before the caravan is connected to a 240 V power supply.
In order to carry this out, disconnect the plug from towing vehicle socket.
For the connection points on camp sites (camping distributors) highly sen-
sitive fault current protection switches (FI-switches, 30 mA) are obligatory.
Completely unwind the cable on cable drums to prevent overheating.
