Initial start-up
In order to perform the initial start-up, the following steps are
required:

VarioHeat control panel and Truma VarioHeat. 230 V for
the Truma E-Kit and air conditioning systems.
– Start the search of the appliances under the menu item
“Service menu” -> “RESET” -> “PR SET”.

Operation
The Truma E-Kit is operated via the Truma CP plus VarioHeat
control panel. Operation of the Truma E-Kit is described in
the operating instructions for the Truma CP plus VarioHeat
control panel.
Operating modes
Electrical operation (EL)
Only the Truma E-Kit is used for heating in electrical mode.
The ventilator of the Truma VarioHeat is used for warm air
distribution.
Depending on the ambient temperature, electrical heat-
ing power alone might not be sufficient to reach the
specified room temperature. Switch to mixed or gas mode to
increase the heating power.
EL1
In electrical mode EL1, the Truma E-Kit provides 900W of
heating power until the desired room temperature is reached.
EL2
In electrical mode EL2, the Truma E-Kit provides a maximum
of 1800W of heating power until the desired room tempera-
ture is reached.
Mixed mode (MIX)
In mixed mode, the Truma E-Kit is used together with the
Truma VarioHeat to provide heating.
This mode is the fastest way of reaching the specified
room temperature.
MIX1
In mixed mode MIX1, the Truma E-Kit provides 900W of
heating power in addition to the heating power of the Truma
VarioHeat.
MIX2
In mixed mode MIX2, the Truma E-Kit provides a maximum
of 1800W of heating power in addition to the heating power
of the Truma VarioHeat.
