1 Statutory regulations governing installation 
1.1. Statutory regulations governing installation 
The Thermo 90 S / Thermo 90 ST heater has been type-tested and 
approved in accordance with EC Directives 72/245/EEC (EMC), 2001/
56/EC (heater) and ECE R122 with the following EC permit numbers: 
e1*2001/56*2004/78*0005*-- 
e1*72/245*95/54*1173*-- 
e1*2001/56*2004/78*0019*-- 
E1 R122 00 0217 
Primarily the regulations of Annex VII of the Directive 2001/56/EG and 
Part 2 or Annex 7 of the directive ECE R122 must be observed for the 
installation. 
NOTE:
The provisions of these Directives are binding within the territory 
governed by EU Directive 70/156/EEC and should similarly be 
observed in countries without specific regulations. 
IMPORTANT
Failure to follow the installation instructions and the notes contained 
therein will lead to all liability being refused by Webasto. The same 
applies if repairs are carried out incorrectly or with the use of parts other 
than genuine spare parts. This will result in the invalidation of the type 
approval for the heater and therefore of its homologation / EC type 
licence.
