10.2 Heater
Initial start-up When lighting the heater for the first time a small amount of smoke and odour
will occur. Immediately set the operating switch of the heater to its highest
position. Open doors and windows and ventilate well. Smoke and odour will
disappear by themselves after a while.
10.2.1 Models with waste gas vent on the right-hand side of the
vehicle
10.2.2 To heat properly
Hot air distribution Several air outlet nozzles (Fig. 154) are built into the vehicle. Pipes conduct
the warm air to the air outlet nozzles. Turn the air outlet nozzles in a suitable
position so the air can escape as required. To avoid draft close the air outlet
nozzles on the dashboard and set the air distribution of the base vehicle to air
circulation.
Adjusting the air outlet
nozzles
Fully open: Full hot air stream
Half or partially open: Reduced hot air stream
When five air outlet nozzles are completely opened, less warm air escapes
through each nozzle. However, if only three air outlet nozzles are opened,
more warm air flows out of each nozzle.
Never let gas escape unburned due to danger of explosion.
Never run the heater in gas operation when refuelling, on ferries or in the
garage. Danger of explosion!
Never operate the heater in gas operation in closed spaces (e.g.
garages). Danger of poisoning and suffocation!
If the awning is put up and the heater is running in gas operation,
exhaust gases from the heater can escape into the awning area. Danger
of suffocation! Make sure the area is sufficiently ventilated.
