1 General informations GB 1.5 Description of the generator 1.7 Fuel Warning The TEC 40D generator has been designed and produced to be used only on caravans, motor homes and commercial vehicles. Therefore it has not been designed to be used on other types of vehicles or on any kind of watercraft. The company Dometic, as it is impossible to envisage every possible use and type of installation, declines any responsibility for every type of use and installation which is not explicitly mentioned.
General informations 1 1.8 Operation description GB The main elements of the TEC 40D generator are: an engine (a), a permanent magnet alternator (b), an inverter (c), an internal control panel (d), a terminal board (e) and an external control panel (f). When the engine runs it drives the alternator to which it is solidly connected, which in turn generates alternating current that supplies the inverter.

Installation instructions 2 GB 2.2 Instructions for installing the exhaust system We recommend positioning the elbow of the exhaust pipe in line with the length of the casing (as shown in the figure) so more vibrations can be absorbed. Use the exhaust extension (AG125) to extend the position of the muffler. Fix the exhaust extension to the vehicle using flexible elements to reduce vibrations (extension fixing is avalaible as accessory upon request - Ref. AG163).
2 Installation instructions 2.3 Instructions for the installation of the tank GB Generator TEC 40D is equipped as standard with an electric pump for pumping fuel. The following should be done. The fuel tank should be installed with the tank basis at a maximum depth of 1.5 meters below the lower edge of the generator box. For safety reasons ensure not to mount the generator box top edge higher than the tank top edge. TANK MAXIMUM LOWER EDGE Generator Tank Max 1.

2 Installation instructions Battery connection GB N.B. To start the generator it is necessary to use a 12VDC battery, with a minmum capacity of 60Ah. � To start the generator, connect it to the positive pole of the vehicle’s battery with a sheathed cable of a suitable cross-section as shown in the table. The ground cable must have the same cross-section and be connected or as shown in the figure to the side or from the inserts to the frame of the vehicle. Make sure that the contact is good.

3 Troubleshooting, maintenance, recycling Air filter maintenance GB Warning Do not use diesel or solvents with a low evaporation point to clean the air filter element as it could catch fire or explode. Important If the air filter is dirty this reduces the flow of air to the engine. Therefore, to prevent malfunctions we recommend checking the state of the filter periodically, and more often if you are using the TEC 40D in particularly dusty areas. Never use the engine without the air filter.
