Operation and Maintenance Instructions

Thermo Top V for Mercedes Benz M, ML, R Class

General Information

Dear Webasto customer,

We assume that the operation of your new heater unit was explained to your

complete satisfaction by the Workshop/Service station that installed it. In these

operating instructions we would like to give you an overview once again of the

use of the Thermo Top V heater unit.

DMaintenance and Safety Instructions

Within the scope of the European Directive 70/156/EWG type approvals have been

granted for the Thermo Top V water heating unit in accordance with

Directives 2001/56/EG (Heating) and 72/245/EWG (EMC).

The unit must be installed in accordance with the accompanying installation

instructions.

The heater unit must not be operated:

Danger of

Explosion and

Suffocation

•at filling stations and refueling systems.

•in places in which highly flammable gases or dust can

form, and in places in which highly flammable liquids or

solid materials are stored (e.g. near fuel, coal dust, wood

dust, grain warehouses, dry grass and leaves, cardboard,

paper, etc.)

•in enclosed spaces (e.g. garage), and not with the time

switch or Telestart.

The heater unit must not:

The heater unit must:

•be exposed to temperatures higher than 120°C (storage

temperature). Exceeding this can cause permanent damage

to the electronics.

•be operated without at least 20% share of an anti-freeze

approved by the manufacturer in the coolant of the heat

exchanger circuit.

•be operated with the fuel and at the nominal voltage

indicated on the type plate.

•if a large amount of smoke is given off, there are unusual

burning noises or smells, be switched off by removing the

fuse. Before using the unit again, have it checked by trained

Webasto personnel.

•be operated for 10 minutes at least once each month with a

cold engine and the lowest blower setting. At the latest, at

the start of the cold season the heater unit must be tested

by a competent technician.

DLiability Waiver

•Not following the installation instructions and the

information contained therein release Webasto from liability.

This also applies for non-specialist repairs or when original

spare parts are not used. This will result in voiding the type

approval of the heater unit and consequently the general

operating permit / EU type approval.

Heater Unit Operation

According to the equipment fitted, the heater unit can be operated from the

vehicle display, by a pushbutton or radio control Telestart.

The heater unit can also be operated via the telephone with the Webasto

Thermo Call option.

NOTE:

We recommend that the heating time is adjusted according to the driving time.

Heating time = Driving time

For example: With a driving time of approx. 20 minutes (one-way trip), we

recommend not exceeding a switch-on time of 20 minutes.

In Heating Mode, set the vehicle heating to "22 ºC - AUTO" before leaving the

vehicle.

NOTE:

The maximum operating time for the auxiliary heating is preset by the vehicle

manufacturer to 50 minutes. This can only be changed by a professional workshop

using Mercedes Star Diagnosis.

DUse

With the Webasto Telestart T80, the heater unit can be switched on and off

wirelessly at a range of up to 600 m. When switching on and off, the transmitter

should be held as high as possible and vertical (see picture).

When transmitting, do not cover the antenna with your hand.

The maximum operating time is preset by the vehicle software to 50 minutes.

The maximum range is increased in open spaces. In built-up areas, make

allowance for a reduced range.

A higher altitude can also increase the range.

NOTE:

When the fuel level reaches "RESERVE", the auxiliary heating can no longer be

operated.

Programming the Telestart Transmitter

1. Place batteries into the battery compartment of the transmitter.

2. Remove fuse 1A (black) from the heater's fuse holder (voltage interruption).

3. Wait at least 5 seconds.

4. Replace fuse in heater's fuse holder and within 5 seconds press the OFF button

on the transmitter for at least 1 second.

5. Programming is completed.

A second or third hand-held transmitter can be programmed in the same manner.

The programming process can be repeated as often as necessary. The "oldest"

transmitter will be deleted each time.
