If air has got into the gas line, it may take up to two minutes
before gas is available for combustion. During this period, the
operating handle should be kept pressed down and the pres-
sure igniter constantly actuated until the flame appears.
5. To ensure even and rapid warm air distribution as well as
lower surface temperatures on the heating unit, we recom-
mend that you operate the heater with a running Trumavent
warm air system.
The Trumatic S 3002 P heater (with automatic ignition) is
designed such that an auto ignitor with a remote ignition
display can be retrofitted without problems (retrofit kit ZAS,
part no. 30040-65700).
Taking into operation with the automatic
ignitor (Trumatic S 3002 / S 5002)
Before using the heater for the first time, ensure that a battery
has been inserted (see "Changing the battery")!
1. Turn on gas cylinder and open quick-acting valve in the gas
supply line.
2. Turn control knob (a) to thermostat setting 1 – 10 and press
it down as far as the stop. Ignition takes place automatically
(ignition sparking audible) until the flame ignites.
Keep the control knob pressed down for a further 10 seconds
to allow the safety pilot to operate.
In the event of a fault always wait 2 minutes
before attempting to reignite!
If the flame goes out again, re-ignition occurs immediately
during the closing time of the safety pilot (approx. 30 seconds).
If there is no flame, the automatic ignitor continues to operate
until the control knob (a) is switched to "0".
If there is air in the gas supply line, it can take up to two
minutes until there is gas available for combustion. During
this time hold the control knob down until the flame lights.

The Trumatic S 3002 and S 5002 heating systems (with
automatic igniters) can be fitted subsequently with a
remote ignition indicator (e – part no. 30040-65400) with no
trouble at all.
If the Trumatic S 5002 heater is combined with front
case with flame effect it is not possible to have a remote
ignition indicator.
Room thermostat
An average room temperature of about 22 °C can be achieved
without blower operation with a thermostat setting of
3 – 5. For operation with blower, we recommend a
thermostat setting of 4 – 8.
The exact thermostat setting must be determined in accord-
ance with the design of the vehicle and the specific heating
requirements.
cold draughts from refrigerator vents, gaps below doors, etc.,
or by a deep-piled carpet. Always be sure to avoid problems
of this kind, otherwise satis factory temperature control cannot
be guaranteed.
Switching off
Turn the control switch to "0" (the automatic ignition will
switch off at the same time).
If the unit is not used for a relatively long period of time, close
off the quick-action gate valve on the gas pipe and gas bottle.
Control panel flame effect
(Trumatic S 5002 only)
a
a = "Off"
(no flame effect, no sound)
b = Flame effect without sound
c = Flame effect with sound
(only flame effect in variant without sound effects)
Switching on
Move control panel switch to (b) flame effect without sound
or (c) flame effect with sound.
Maintenance
In Germany, always notify the Truma Service Centre if prob-
lems are encountered; in other countries the relevant service
partners should be contacted (see Truma Service Booklet or
www.truma.com).
