Another cold season has now arrived, and with she begins the work of our duty heater
About heaters! I think there is to do the important considerations on how to run a really Webasto heater.
In all the cold I've seen in past seasons now shop hundreds of campers, including many who have problems with Webasto. the trees I was wondering if this heater was really good considering the complaints from angry customers thought to be regretted that install this accessory, but with the passage of time and in spite of that, I had reason to give to the poor heater.
Seriously, in most cases, the heaters properly installed, have never given a malfunction, and you know why? Let me explain, the campers have a plan different from each other, and each heater assembly of the criteria will always different, seemingly trivial if the above criteria are not always performed, and well, certainly the heater will never work perfectly as it should be.
Now do not be offended if I give you some advice on how to better manage your heater.
The aspiration for example, the first important milestone and a heater should always be installed in a very free and that absolutely suck in air from the inside. if you install a heater where and always ask 'Did you follow the suction port so as not to inadvertently go to block it. Keep clean the grille, the air flow is very important.
Hot Air: The inflow and outflow of hot air must always be left open, except the bathroom that can be managed with an output flow control. If we have an air heater at 2000 model, the jets will be no more ' of three, but if the heater starts to be a more 'powerful (at 3900 AT 3500 AT 5000) then we must respect its push hot air from the nozzles to be at least four. Equally anomalous excess of the jets, if the same start to be too many, the buoyancy loses power, cooling and slowing down considerably. When you turn the heater does not move the pot unnecessarily at full power because it would be useless. Once on, it should be regulated and brought to about 20 degrees, ie the white line at 12 without having to worry about anything, because the handling of the heater and 'fully automatic, heated environment and modulate by itself trying to maintain a constant temperature you set. When you decide to lower the temperature quickly move the potentiometer is at zero, otherwise the heater will play bad reading in grades annoying and will begin to blow cold air up to the new temperature you set. (Remember, the power switch does not adjust the fan speed but the power management of the heat)
Problems:
If the heater would have to stop the ignition switch will begin 'to flash, so we know how to interpret the code will flash the order to identify at least of whom is dead.
Now we try to understand how to read fault codes: In the center ignition is a green light which is normally lit when the heater turned on. If for various reasons, the heater is blocked, the light starts to blink at this frequency: the number of slow blinks indicates the fault code, and a series of fast flashes, indicating the break before resuming the count error code. For example: if the battery runs substantially the heater stops with the following code: F03 undervoltage that means, then what you'll see the light at the center dell'interuttore power will be three and five short blinks slowly. they serve only to distinguish the break from the error code, and then are never regarded it counted.
The list of error codes is in the instruction manual and clearly describes the fault with the code described as follows: F01 F02 F03 F04 etc.. each number corresponds to an error
for some of these abnormalities and 'can be one of your intervention, while others require the assistance of a qualified webasto that with proper instrumentation potra'rilevare the fault and then repair it.
Never leave your vehicle with very little oil, because the heater could suck the dirt, and not having very large filters such as the engine could suffer and crash often.
During the summer, when the heater and detention, dates at least once a month about a half hour of power, and this operation ' recommended in order to keep the burner clean and unburned carbon residue from inside (see fig. 2) Beware of DIY geeks' who advise you to continuously adjust the co for the mountains, the hill or the sea by strange ways, so you risk damage the electronics of the heater, and you'll never proper operation. If you ever need a fix will be 'webasto to establish a center with the appropriate gas analyzer.
The revision of a heater, and if it works 'recommended after at least two or three' years, but if your repairer of trust will make a diagnosis you will know exactly how many hours the heater worked and will therefore give you more specific advice on what to do. A center
Webasto Service has a duty to act when you find yourself in an emergency situation with the heater, although it has not been installed by them.
