Exhaust system
Mounting the exhaust system
The universal installation kit includes a flexible
exhaust pipe, inner Ø 24 mm, 1000 mm long and an
exhaust silencer. The flexible exhaust pipe can be
shortened to 20 cm or lengthened to max. 2 m,
depending on the installation conditions.
Fasten the exhaust silencer to a suitable position in
the vehicle.
Route the flexible exhaust pipe from the heater to the
exhaust silencer and fasten with pipe clips.
Connect an exhaust end pipe to the exhaust silencer
and fasten with a pipe clip.
After finishing all installation work, place an end
sleeve on the exhaust end pipe (Exhaust diagram see
page 23).
Caution!
Safety instructions!
The whole exhaust system gets very hot during and
immediately after the heater has been working. This is
the reason why the exhaust system must be installed
according to these instructions.
• The exhaust outlet must end in the open air.
• The exhaust pipe must not protrude beyond the
lateral limits of the vehicle.
• Install the exhaust pipe sloping slightly downwards.
If necessary, make a drain hole approx. Ø 5 mm at
the lowest point to drain off condensation.
• Important functional parts of the vehicle must not be
impaired (keep sufficient clearance).
• Mount the exhaust pipe with sufficient clearance to
heat-sensitive parts. Pay particular attention to fuel
pipes (plastic or metal), electrical cables and brake
hoses etc.!
• Exhaust pipes must be fastened safely
(recommended clearance of 50 cm) to avoid damage
from vibrations.
• Route the exhaust system so that the emitted fumes
are not sucked in with the combustion air.
• The mouth of the exhaust pipe must not get clogged
by dirt and snow.
• The mouth of the exhaust pipe must not point in the
direction of travel.
• Always fasten the exhaust silencer to the vehicle.
Danger!
Risk of injuries and burns!
Every type of combustion produces high temperatures
and toxic exhaust fumes. This is the reason why the
exhaust system must be installed according to these
instructions.
• Do not perform any work on the exhaust system
while the heater is working.
• Before working on the exhaust system, first switch
the heater off and wait until all parts have cooled
down completely, wear safety gloves if necessary.
• Do not inhale exhaust fumes.
• Comply with the regulations and safety instructions
for this chapter on page 4 – 7.
• If a silencer is fitted, the exhaust end pipe must be
much shorter than the flexible exhaust pipe
between the heater and the exhaust silencer.
• Small arrows indicating the direction of flow have
been cast into the fittings to differentiate between
the combustion air and the exhaust fittings at the
heater (see diagram page 23).
