Fitted Equipment
Blown air
The air ducting outlets are generally of the
butterfly type and may be opened or closed
by adjusting the butterfly valves. Twisting the
disc in its housing directs the flow in the
direction required.
One outlet on each leg of the air ducting
layout must be kept open at all times.
Switching off
Push slide switch (a) to the "OFF" position.
IMPORTANT OPERATING NOTES
1. Repairs may only be carried out by an
expert.
2. Under no circumstances should the hot
air outlet be blocked. Never hang clothes
or similar in front of or on top of the
heater to dry. This could cause serious
damage to the heater as a result of
overheating. Do not place inflammable
materials near the heater! Please observe
these instructions for your own safety.
3. When operating a brand new heater for
the first time (or after it has been idle for a
lengthy period) you may temporarily
notice a slight smoke and smell. We
advise running the heater at full power
and thoroughly ventilating the room
4. Any modifications to the appliance or the
use of spare parts and accessories
important for the operation, which are not
original Truma parts, or non-observance

of the instructions for installation and use
will result in the guarantee becoming
invalid and no liability will be assumed.
Furthermore, the approval for operating
the appliance will become invalid and in
some countries also the approval for
operating the vehicle.

ALDE HEATING SYSTEM

Please read these instructions carefully
before using the boiler.
These instructions are approved for Alde
Compact 3000 92X, 93X and 94X boilers
fitted in caravans, motor caravans and
buildings in accordance with CE no. 048 AP-
0013.
A professional may only carry out installation
and repairs. National regulations must be
adhered to.
BOILER DESIGN
The boiler consists of three eccentrically
fitted cylinders (heat exchanger, water jacket
for the heating system and, outermost, water
jacket for hot water). The two outer pipes, as
well as their ends and connections, are made
from stainless steel, while the heat exchanger
is made from aluminium.
The heat exchanger is divided into two semi-
circles. The burner is located in the upper
half, the combustion chamber, and the
combustion gases are expelled through the
lower half. The burner unit is fitted on the
end of the heat exchanger. It consists of a
combustion fan, burner, solenoid valve and
intake/exhaust connections. One or two
heating cartridges are fitted to the water
jacket of the heating system. Output is 2 or
3 kW, depending on model.
DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONS
Using LPG
When the sliding switch on the control panel
is set to LPG, the combustion fan starts. The
fan creates pressure against the pressure
gauge. When the fan pressure is sufficiently
high, the pressure gauge signals the
electronics box that the boiler can be lit. The
electronics box sends ignition sparks to the
spark plug at the same time as it sends
electricity to the solenoid valves, which open
to allow gas in. The burner ignites, and a
sensor transmits a signal back to the
electronics box that the boiler is lit and
ignition spark stops. The burner keeps
burning until the boiler thermostat or the
room thermostat reaches the set temperature
reading. Should the boiler go out for any
