7.4 Electrical system
As soon as there is a mains connection, the
electrical system will switch from battery operati-
on to mains operation.
The electrical supply unit uses a converter to
transform the external mains voltage for the 12
Volt electrical devices.
All of the lamps in the caravan use 12 V. Only
large electrical devices such as the therme, oor
heating, air conditioner, etc., use 230 V.
• Before each journey, please check that
the battery is charged (see p. 07-13). If
necessary, connect it to the mains and
press the main switch to start charging
the battery.
• Leave the main switch on whenever the
caravan is being used so that the batte-
ry is charged regularly.
• Do not forget to activate the pushbutton
on the battery container.
• Use every opportunity during your
journey to charge the battery.
• The battery loses its capacity after
having been used for a while and at
low temperatures.
• An acoustic warning signal will be
given off if the remaining time during
discharge operation is less than
1 hour.
• If the battery voltage should be less
than 10.0 V, all devices will automati-
cally be switched off.
• A warning will go off if the battery
ages to a value less than 50% of its
nominal capacity.
• If the vehicle is not in use for a longer
period of time, the battery should be
disconnected or the main switch should
be switched off after the battery has
been optimally charged.
