Note containing information and tips.12 EN The air outlet and and the circulated air intake must not be obstructed under any circum- stances. This is essential in order to ensure that your device operates correctly. The openings beneath the floor of the vehi- cle must be kept free of dirt and slush. These openings must not be within the range of the wheel spray – fit splash guard if necessary. If underbody protection is being applied to the floor of the vehicle, all openings beneath the vehicle must be covered so that the spray mist that is created does not penetrate the de- vice and cause malfunctions. Remove covers again when the work is complete. To prevent damage to the appliance, it should not be operated continuously at an incline of more than 8 %. Do not operate the device for long periods with the vehicle at an angle, since the conden- sation that is produced may not be able to run away and may penetrate the vehicle under un- favourable circumstances. In order to ensure that the equipment works properly and to avoid damage, only power supply sources with a purely sinusoidal wave- form (e.g. voltage converter, generator) and without voltage peaks must be used. When the floor of the vehicle is being cleaned, it must be ensured that no water penetrates the openings in the base of the device when spraying with a high-pressure cleaner, for example. For safety reasons the device must always be closed during operation, since this is the only way to ensure that no injuries are caused by moving parts. Then strap around the electronic housing must not be removed. This appliance may be used by children from 8 years old and by persons with disabilities or with a lack of experience only if they are supervised or have been instructed in the safe use of the appliance and understand the re- sulting risks. Notes on using air conditioning systems – The Saphir comfort RC air conditioning sys- tem is designed for minimal power consump- tion. You should still check whether the camp site has adequate fuse protection (min. 6 A) before starting the equipment up. – Park the vehicle in the shade if possible. – Darkening with shutters and / or a canopy reduces the amount of heat radiation. – Clean your roof at regular intervals (dirty roofs heat up more than clean roofs). – The vehicle must be properly ventilated before starting the equipment in order to remove accumulated warm air from the vehicle. – When aprons or the like are being fitted, please ensure that adequate openings are present for dissipating the supply air. The opening for the warm outgoing air should not be at the inlet side. – In order to obtain a healthy room climate, the difference between the inside and out- side temperatures should not be too great. The recirculated air is cleaned and dried dur- ing operation. A pleasant room climate is produced by drying the moist air, even if the temperature difference is minimal. – Keep all doors and windows closed when in cooling mode. – Full ventilation power can only be achieved at all three openings if three cold air ducts are connected. – The blow-out duct (part no. 40040-32500) must not be used. – When in heating mode, only use “high” fan level for rapid heating. Set to “medium” or “low” during continuous operation.13EN Always observe the operating instructions and the “Safety instructions” prior to starting! The vehicle owner is responsible for correct operation of the appliance. Remote control The symbols in the display are visible depending on the settings.

Start-up Before switching on, be sure to check that the camp site pow- er supply fusing is sufficient for (230 V / min. 6 A). In order to prevent the power cable of the recreational vehi- cle from overheating (minimum cross-section 3 x 2.5 mm²) the cable drum must be fully unwound. The remote control must always be pointed at the infra-red re- ceiver in order to perform the individual switching commands. Before switching on for the first time, the remote control must be tuned to the IR receiver. – Insert batteries (pay attention to polarity) – Setup symbol flashes (if symbol does not flash, perform Reset) – Point remote control at IR receiver – Press Setup button and hold down – When red LED in IR receiver flashes, release Setup button. The remote control is tuned to the IR receiver, the Setup sym- bol goes off and the air conditioning system starts in circu- lated air mode, at low fan level and with no timer set. Switching on Switch on the air conditioning system using the “On / Off switch” of the remote control. The previous settings are taken over. The circulated air fan runs after switching on. The com- pressor switches itself on after no more than 3 minutes, and the blue (cooling) / yellow (heating) LED flashes. Temperature If necessary, use the “Temperature selection buttons” to set the required room temperature with “+” and “–”. Mode Select the required operating mode by pressing the “MODE” button one or more times. – Cooling – Heating – Automatic (cooling or heating mode depending on the room temperature setting) – Circulated air When the room temperature that was selected using the re- mote control is reached in cooling mode, the compressor switches off and the blue LED in the IR receiver goes off. The circulated air fan continues to run in order to provide ventila- tion. If the room temperature setting is exceeded, the device automatically reverts to cooling mode. When the room temperature that was selected using the re- mote control is reached in heating mode, the compressor switches off and the yellow LED in the IR receiver goes off. The circulated air fan continues to run in order to provide ven- tilation. If the temperature drops below the room temperature setting, the device automatically switches to heating mode. Heating is not possible if the outside temperature is less than 4 °C. At a temperature of between 4 °C and 7 °C, the device briefly switches to thawing operation. Heating mode is unrestrictedly available ate temperature above 7 °C. In order to achieve interior heating that is as effective as possible at low temperatures, the air conditioning sys- tem operates at the “low” level at room temperatures of less than 12°C. As soon as 12°C is reached, the air conditioning system automatically switches to the fan setting selected on the remote control. In automatic mode, cooling / heating mode and the fan level are selected automatically depending on the room temperature. In circulated air mode, the interior air is recirculated and cleaned by the filters. No LED’s illuminate in the IR receiver. Fan Select the required fan level by pressing the “Fan level” but- ton one or more times. Fan level (not functional in automatic mode): – low – medium – high Sleep function In “Sleep function” (cooling mode only), the internal fan op- erates at slow speed and therefore particularly quietly. Switching off To switch off, press the “On / Off switch” on the remote control. The remote control and the device are switched off. If the air conditioning system is switched on again, the blue / yellow LED flashes. The circulated air fan runs, and the compressor switches on after no more than 3 minutes. Time Press “Time selection button” and set current time using the “Time setting” buttons.15EN The time always appears on the display. The time must be reset after changing the batteries or after a daylight saving time change. Timer ON / OFF The On / Off time of the air conditioning system can be set in advance for a minimum of 15 minutes to a maximum of 24 hours, starting from the current time, using the integrated timer. The device must be switched on using the remote control in order to program it. Set required operating mode and room temperature. Then select TIMER ON or TIMER OFF using the “TIMER se- lection buttons”. Set the required On / Off time using the “Time setting” buttons (15 minutes to 24 hours) and con- firm with TIMER ON or TIMER OFF. Pressing the relevant timer button again deactivates the timer function. Reset Resets the settings of the remote control to the factory set- tings when pressed using a ballpoint pen, for example. Setup symbol flashes. Resend The previous settings are resent. Setup Tune the remote control to the air conditioning system that is going to be operated. Settings set to “Circulated air”, fan level low, no timer set. Maintenance There is a fluff filter (n) and a particle filter (p) on the front of the device for cleaning the room air.

Fig. 5 The fluff filter (n) must be cleaned at regular intervals (at least 2x per annum) and changed if required (part no. 40090-64600). We recommend replacing the particle filter (p) every year at the beginning of the season (part no. 40090-58100). The cold air ducts must be removed before replacing the fil- ters. Before replacing the fluff filter (n), release the clip (k) and the sensor (s) using a flat-bladed screwdriver. Pull the fluff filter (n) a little way forward at the recesses at the top edge and remove from above. Then remove particle filter (p) from the front. Re-fit the clip and the sensor in the same position during assembly. Fig. 6 When installing the particle filter (p) the printed arrows must point towards the device – they indicate the circu- lated air flow direction. Never operate the device without a filter. Operating the device without a filter can cause evap- orator coil soiling, which can have a detrimental effect on the performance of the device! The condensation drain is under the floor of the vehicle. In order to allow the condensation to drain away freely, check whether the drain is free of dirt, leaves and the like at regular intervals. Failure to do this may allow condensation to penetrate the vehicle! Troubleshooting Is the motor home / caravan 230 V power supply lead prop- erly connected, and are the fuses and circuit breakers OK? Fault Cause / Remedy Device not cooling – Thawing process in progress / wait until thawing procedure is complete. – The temperature set on the re- mote control has been reached / set temperature on remote control to less than room temperature. Device not heating – Thawing process in progress (outside temperature between 4 °C – 7 °C) / adjust fan to lower setting – Outside temperature below 4 °C Device providing insuf- ficient cooling or no cooling at all – Filters soiled / change filters – External air routes soiled, blocked / clear air routes Moisture at cold air ducts – High air humidity / close win- dows and doors and select high fan level Remote control not working – Check batteries in remote control / replace batteries if necessary Device not reacting to remote control commands – Check whether there are ob- structions between the remote control and the IR receiver / re- move obstructions if necessary – Is the remote control tuned to the IR receiver? / tune remote control to IR receiver If these actions fail to remedy the fault, please contact Truma Service.16 EN Accessories Sound muffler for installation in the cold air duct for additional noise reduction within the living compartment. (Part no. 40090-00038).

1. Scope of Manufacturer’s Warranty

As the Manufacturer of the unit, Truma undertakes a warranty towards the Consumer that covers any material and/or manu- facturing defects of the unit. This Warranty is applicable in EU member states as well as in Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey. A Consumer is the natural person who was the first one to purchase the unit from the Manufacturer, OEM or dealer and who neither resold the unit in a commercial or self-employed professional capacity nor did he or she install it for a third party in such a capacity. The Manufacturer’s Warranty covers any of the aforementioned defects that occur within 24 months upon concluding the purchase agreement between the seller and the Consumer. The Manufacturer or an authorised service partner undertakes to remedy such defects through subsequent fulfilment, i.e. at its discretion either by repairing or replacing the defective item. Any defective parts shall become the property of the Manufacturer or the authorised service partner. If the unit is no longer manufactured at the time of defect notification and if replacement delivery has been opted for, then the Manufac- turer may deliver a similar product. If the Manufacturer remedies a defect under its warranty com- mitment, the term of the Warranty shall not recommence anew with regard to the repaired or replaced parts; rather, the origi- nal warranty period shall continue to be applicable to the unit. Only the Manufacturer itself and an authorised service partner shall be entitled to conduct a warranty job. Any costs that oc- cur in the event of a warranty claim shall be settled directly between the authorised service partner and the Manufacturer. The Warranty does not cover additional costs arising from complicated removal or installation jobs on the unit (e.g. dis- mantling of furnishings or parts of the vehicle body), and nei- ther does it cover travel expenses incurred by the authorised service partner or the Manufacturer. No further-reaching claims shall be permitted, especially dam- age claims presented by the Consumer or third parties. This provision shall not affect the validity of the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz). Neither does the voluntary Manufacturer’s Warranty affects the Consumer’s legally applicable claims for defects towards the seller in the relevant country of purchase. In individual countries there may be warranties that can be issued by the relevant dealer (official distributor, Truma Partner). In such cases the warranty can be implemented directly through the dealer from whom the Consumer bought the unit. The warran- ty regulations of the country in which the unit was purchased by the Consumer for the first time shall also be applicable.

2. Warranty exclusions

No warranty claim shall be applicable under the following circumstances: – Improper, unsuitable, faulty or negligent use and any use that is not compliant with the intended purpose – Improper installation, assembly or commissioning, contrary to operating or installation instructions – Improper operation or operation contrary to operating or installation instructions, particularly any disregard for main- tenance, care or warning notes, – Instances where installations, repairs or any other proce- dures have been conducted by non-authorised parties – Consumable materials and parts which are subject to natu- ral wear and tear – Installation of replacement, supplementary or accessory parts that are not original manufacturer’s parts or which have not been approved by the manufacturer. If the device is subject to networked control, this applies, in particular, if the control units or the software have not been approved by Truma or if the Truma control unit (e.g. Truma CP plus or Truma iNet Box) has not been exclusively used for control- ling Truma devices or devices approved by Truma. – Damage arising from foreign substances (e.g. oil or, plas- ticisers in the gas), chemical or electrochemical influences in the water, or cases when the unit has come into contact with unsuitable substances (e.g. chemical products, flam- mable substances or unsuitable cleaning agents) – Damage caused by abnormal environmental or unsuitable operating conditions – Damage caused by force majeure or natural disasters or any other influences not within Truma’s responsibility – Damage resulting from improper transport – End customer’s or third-party modifications of the device, including any replacement, supplementary or accessory parts, or installation of the same, especially concerning the exhaust gas system or the cowl.
