4. The control panel may be faulty. - If all power connections are correct and the screen still does not appear, contact technical support.

Frequently Asked Technical Questions (FAQ) 1- Energy System and Battery Management 1.1 Is the cabin's energy consumption normal? Why does the battery run out quickly? The cabin's energy consumption varies depending on the devices used, ambient temperature, and user habits. The main factors causing high consumption: - Diesel heater (especially for initial start-up and extremely cold weather) - Refrigerator (continuous operation in 12V mode 1-3 Amperes/hour) - Using 220V devices via an inverter - Lighting, USB sockets, and control panel remaining constantly on Important note: - The heater operates at maximum power during the initial operation. During this time, energy consumption is higher than normal. Once the cabin temperature stabilizes, consumption decreases. 1.2 The control panel won't open, the screen is completely off This situation indicates a critical energy problem, and the following checks should be performed in order: Possible reasons: 1. The battery may be completely drained. - It may have been left uncharged for a long time. - The voltage may have dropped in cold weather conditions. 2. The main fuse or the fuse on the battery may have blown. - The fuse on the positive battery terminal must be checked. 3. The battery charger (mains charger) may not be charging. - When the 110V / 220V mains plug is connected: - A voltage increase should be visible on the control panel. - If the voltage remains constant, it means that charging is not occurring. continues to operate. Even when the control panel is off, the cabin battery continues to consume electricity. Include this situation in your calculations. When the control panel is closed: - Heater (Eberspacher) - Refrigerator - Gas Sensor Attention

Attention

1.3 The cabin is connected to the charger but the battery is not charging This situation usually stems from incorrect charging assumptions. Possible Reasons: - The outlet you are using may not be supplying power. - AC fuses may be closed - The battery charger may be faulty. - The battery connection fuse may have blown. Items to be checked: - Whether the city power outlet is actually supplying power - LEDs / status indicators on the battery charger - The main AC circuit breakers must be in the closed (ON) position. - A voltage increase is observed when the network is connected on the control panel. The control panel being off is usually due to a lack of power rather than a panel malfunction.

Information

When connected to the city grid (110V / 220V): - A voltage increase should be visible on the control panel. - If the voltage remains constant, it means the battery is not charging.

Attention

A real-world example: - In some cases, the outlet used may be faulty. The user thinks it is "charging," but the battery never charges. The plug being inserted does not mean the battery is charging. The only correct way to check is to see if the voltage rises on the control panel.

Information

- The most common situation encountered in field experience: The city network outlet is faulty and the user does not notice it.
