Intended use
This device was designed for installing in vehicles (motor
homes, caravans, boats and commercial vehicles). Other ap-
plications are also possible following consul tation with Truma.
Installation inside busses (vehicle classes M2 and M3) is not

Approval
Directive 2004/78/EC stipulates that a safety shut-off device
is required if motor homes are being heated while driving.

throughout Europe in accordance with EU directive 2001/56/EC
by installing a safety shut-off device such as the Truma
SecuMotion gas pressure regulator with an appropriately
designed gas installation.
The safety shut-off device is also recommended for safety
reasons if caravans are being heated while driving.

In-vehicle installations must comply with the technical and
administrative regulations of the respective country of use
(e.g. EN 1949 for vehicles). The national regulations and rules
(e.g. DVGW work sheet G 607 in Germany) must be complied

Notes on the installation in commercial
vehicles
The TÜV-tested cylinder holder (part no. 39742-00) is a con-
stituent of the type approval for Trumatic E heaters in accord-
ance with heater directive 2001/56/EC. Here it is stated that
2 gas cylinders with a contents of max. 15 kg can be con-
nected and used for operating the heaters while the vehicle is
moving. For the protection of the cylinder valve and the gas
pressure regulator, just the protective cover provided with the
cylinder bracket is required.
For protection against theft or for reasons of appearance, the
gas cylinder can also be concealed using the lockable cylinder
cabinet (part no. 39010-21100). The cabinet is bolted with the
cylinder bracket to the vehicle frame.
When installing the heater in special vehicles (e.g. vehicles for
transporting hazardous goods), the respective regula-tions for
such vehicles must be observed.
Notes on installation in driver's cab
For appliances with ex-haust ducts under the vehicle floor, the
exhaust cowl must extend into the area of the side or rear wall
of the cab or vehicle, in order to make sure exhaust gas does
not enter the inside of the vehicle.
Model-related assembly instructions can be obtained from
Truma.
In Germany, for tank vehicles carrying hazardous goods in the
field of application covered by the ADR, the appliance is only
approved with the Truma control unit.
