3 Installation position
The water heater must be installed outside the passenger compartment.
The heaters are preferably installed in the engine compartment, under
the front fender where they are protected from splashing water or on the
splashboard.
The heaters must be installed as low as possible to permit automatic
bleeding of the heater and circulation pump. This is particularly
important as the circulation pump is not self-priming.
IMPORTANT:
The openings of the water ports must not point downwards in any
installed position.
IMPORTANT:
The heaters must not be installed:
– in the immediate vicinity of or above hot parts,
– in areas directly exposed to splashing water from the wheels,
– below the fording line of the vehicle.
