Choice of location
The unit and its exhaust duct must always be installed so that
they are easy to access at all times for service work (e.g. fuel
and water connection via a service flap, furniture door etc.)
and are easy to remove and install.
The distance between the unit and surrounding furniture
items or vehicle components must be at least 10 mm at all
sides (5 mm at the water connection side).
The scope of delivery includes a second type plate (duplicate)
with removable bar code.
If the type plate on the heater is not visible after the heater
has been installed, the second type plate (duplicate) must be
affixed to the unit in a clearly visible location.
The duplicate must only be used in conjunction with the original.

In order to heat the vehicle evenly throughout, the heater
must be installed in a location in the vehicle that is as central
as possible in a wardrobe, stowage compartment or the like
with an adequate height, so that the air distribution ducts
can be routed with equal lengths. Appropriate openings must
be present in the installation compartment so that air can be
drawn in – see relevant sections concerning extraction air
intake, circulated air intake and warm air distribution. The
maximum lengths of the fuel lines (see fuel connection) and
the exhaust and air intake muffler (see exhaust air and com-
bustion air ducting) must be complied with.

In order to reduce the potential danger to persons
caused by a heater coming off in the event of an ac-
cident, the upper cover plate (1) of the installation cabinet
must be secured to other pieces of furniture with screws at
least 10 mm above the heater. Depending on the installation
situation, it may be necessary (especially with rear-mounted
fixtures) to install a stable furniture console (2) before (next to)
the heater, perpendicular to the direction of travel. For this
purpose, a solid spacer (minimum cross section 30 x 50 mm)
can be attached at a height of approx. 180 mm above the
floor, or a board (3) for sliding in on a stable furniture bracket.
There must not be any heat-sensitive materials beneath the
unit (e.g. flooring such as PVC or similar, cables etc.), since
high temperatures can occur at the base of the unit.
No cables or water lines may be attached to the equipment’s
insulation in order to prevent damage to components inside
the equipment.
Parts of the vehicle which are important for operation are not
to be adversely affected.

The cowl must be placed in such a way that exhaust gas can-
not find its way into the vehicle interior. The cowl must be a
wall cowl.

The wall cowl is to be fitted in such a way that no tank nozzles
or tank ventilation apertures are located within 500 mm (R) of
it. In addition, no air discharge apertures for the living area or
window openings may be located within 300 mm of it.
If installing the cowl directly underneath a window that
will be opened, installation of an electric window switch
(part no. 34030-34700) is mandatory.
Fastening the appliance
Check whether the vehicle has a load-bearing floor or false
floor for securing the heater. If the floor is unsuitable, create a
load-bearing surface beforehand by gluing a plywood board
to the floor, for example.

Screw heater to vehicle floor or false floor using four B 5.5 x 25
screws (included in scope of delivery). Depending on the
situation, it may be possible to secure the heater with three
screws; in this case, always screw aluminium feet (a) and
selectively one of the plastic feet (b) to the vehicle floor.
