Connecting the battery
Liquid electrolyte batteries need to be placed in a separate
box with an external venting system. The fuse for the positive
line needs to be connected outside the box. The gel and AGM
batteries do not need a separate box. Observe the installation
regulations of the battery manufacturer.
The cables leaving the terminal need to be installed separately
from each other until after the fuse in the plus line.

Route battery connecting cables (only use the original cables
included in the delivery) to control unit and securely attach us-
ing the provided clips and screws.
The battery connecting cables must not be extended.
They must be routed separately from the motor cables,
and must not run over the control unit.
Route battery connecting cables so that they do not chafe (par-
ticularly at leadthroughs through metal panels). Use suitable
leadthrough grommets for protection in order to prevent dam-
age to cables. Connect battery connecting cables to the
existing battery terminals (red = positive, black = negative).
Incorrect wiring will destroy the electronics / control
system.
The connection to the control unit (as per the connecting dia-
gram) must take place in the order – nut, battery connection
ring, nut (torque 10 Nm ± 1).
Connect the fuse in the positive cable (150 A) close to the posi-
tive contact.
Commissioning the maneuvering assistant
Ensure the battery used to operate the maneuvering assistant
is fully charged.
Park the caravan outside on an open, level surface and apply
the handbrake. Ensure that the rollers are disengaged from the
road tyres and the corner steadies are raised.
Connect battery terminals to battery, check that all cables are
secure and not hot or indicating signs of short circuits, etc.
Move slide switch on remote hand set to the "On"
This switches the remote hand set on – green LED flashes
for 5 seconds in combination with the acoustic alarm until the
control unit is ready for operation. If LED does not illuminate,
check polarity and condition of batteries in remote hand set.
The remote hand set switches itself off after about 2 minutes if
no buttons are pressed.
Check whether both drive motors are stationary. With the re-
mote hand set switched on, and no more than 2 m away from
the control unit, press the "Forwards" button. Both drive motors
must now move in the forwards direction.
Move slide switch on remote control to the "Off"
switch the remote control and therefore the maneuvering as-
sistant off.

Move drive rollers against the tyres using the provided lever.
Turn the lever until it mechanically engages and cannot be
turned any further without using excessive force (end position
approximately horizontal).
Ensure that there no obstacles around the caravan, release
the handbrake and switch the remote control on. Now check all
functions several times according the operating instructions.
Apply caravan handbrake. To switch the remote hand set and
the maneuvering assistant off, move slide switch on remote

lever and re-check distance between roller and tyre. Adjust if
necessary.
The distance between the disengaged drive rollers and
the tyres is 20 mm.
Warning information
The yellow sticker with the warning information, which is en-
closed with the appliance, must be affixed by the installer or
vehicle owner to a place in the vehicle where it is clearly vis-
ible to all users (e.g. on the wardrobe door)! Ask your dealer to
