9.2 CONNECTING TO VEHICLE
BATTERY
Make sure no other energy source is connected
(gas, 230V).
The 12V female socket is on the backwall of the
appliance, while the suitable male plug with a
2,5m long wire is an accessory supplied with your
new appliance.
Make the connection to 12 volt vehicle battery by
a professional vehicle service the following way:
The free end of the cable must be connected to
positive and negative pole of the battery.
Attention: connection to the positive pole may
only be made through a 16A fuse!
One possible way of the connecting can be seen
(on figure 6.)
A - fuse holder with 16A fuse
B - wire ties
C - positive battery cable
If the 2,5m long cable proves to be short, up to 4m
length 2,5mm
2
;while up to 6m length 4,0mm
2
sectioned cable must be used.
Pay attention to the voltage values noted on the
rating label and on a label placed below the
female socket!
The 12V operation is turned on by connecting the
plug and cut off by disconnecting the plug.
Push the fixing tab with a screw-driver as can be
seen (in figure 7). After that the plug can be
disconnected.
9.3 Connecting to gas cylinder
Make sure no other energy source is connected
(230V, 12V).
The unit must not be connected to town or natural
gas pipelines. It is only suitable for use with
propane/butane gas (e.g. Calor Gas, Camping
Gaz, Caravangas, etc.).
The RC 1180 is equipped for a specific gas-
pressure, corresponding to the standard pressure
of the country in which it is sold. The rating-plate
states the pressure that is correct. It is important
that a non-adjustable pressure-regulator is used
to reduce the pressure in the gas cylinder to the
operating pressure specified on the rating-plate.
No other pressure may be used.
Needle valve-operated gas control taps are NOT
suitable for use with this appliance and must not
be used as a substitute for a pressure regulator.
