a thermal limiting device which cuts off

gine is running with an outside tempera-
ture of +5°C or less and a coolant fluid
temperature below 60°C.
The heater is also protected by the auto-
matic fuel cut-off switch, which shuts off
the fuel in the event of a crash of a cer-
tain size: to see how this works see the
“automatic fuel cut-off switch” para-
graph.
When the coolant fluid reaches 61°C,
the electronic control unit reduces the
power of the burner and stops the heater
when a temperature of 72°C is reached,
reactivating it automatically when the flu-
id temperature falls below 60°C. Con-
versely, if after reducing the power of the
burner, the fluid temperature begins to
fall, the control unit cuts in to restore full
power.
