Operating the Webasto
Operating the Webasto Thermo Top C (TTC)
Before switching on theTTC, set vehicle heating system to the heat position and open any shut
off valves. Depending on the type of control installed in the dashboard of the vehicle, the TTC can
be operated by the following methods.
2.1
Switching On
Using a Switch:
Using the Optional Digital Timer:
Using the Switch:
When the switch is used for turning ON the TTC, the operation indicator (toggle) lights up.
Shortly thereafter, the heater begins operation and delivers heated coolant to the engine.
Using the Optional 7-Day Digital Timer:
1. Set the timer up to 2 hrs. before you want to start the engine. The heater will start at set time.
(See timer operating instructions.)
Or switch fiinstan onf switch on your timer in the vehicle dash to ON The heater will start up.
2. When time is elapsed on your timer or engine preheat is no longer required, switch the TTC
heater OFF The TTC will go through the after-run cycle.
Pushing the fiinstan heatf button or when timer setting reaches desired start time, the fioperatio
indicatorf on the timer will light, signaling that the heater is in operation.
See section 2.3 fiOperatio with 7-Day Digital Timerf for complete instructions.
NOTE:
If heater is being switched on while the engine is warm only the circulating pump will run, coolant
temperature must fall below 86 °F. (30 °C.) before heater starts.
Startup Sequence:
The coolant circulating pump, ceramic igniter and combustion air fan start operation and after
approximately 60 seconds combustion starts (audible combustion sound).
After the coolant temperature has reached the set point of 170 °F (77 °C) the TTC will
automatically adjust its heat output to a lower operating range (part-load heat output).
If the temperature of the coolant continues to rise and climb over 174 °F (79 °C) at the heater outlet,
the heater will cycle off.
When the temperature falls below 149 °F (65 °C) the heater will restart and repeat the heating cycle.

Basic Troubleshooting
Thermo Top C (TTC)
Heater Lockout Reset Procedure
The TTC is designed with a lockout safety feature built in to the control unit. After 3 consecutive
unsuccessful startup attempts, the heater will lock itself out from any further start attempts. The
heater may also enter the lockout mode after experiencing an overheat condition.
The following procedure will clear the lockout mode and reset the heater for normal operation:
1. Remove fuse F1 (15 Amp), refer to wiring diagram figure 411 for identification.
Wait 10 seconds before reinserting. This is done to prepare the control unit for resetting.
2. Wait a further 10 seconds after reinserting fuse F1. Now turn the heater on using the On/Off
switch or the fiinstan onf button of the optional timer.
3. Wait 10 seconds after turning the heater on and remove fuse F1 again.
4. Wait a further 30 seconds and then turn the heater off at the switch or optional timer.
5. Reinsert fuse F1 after waiting 3 to 10 seconds of shutting off the heater.
6. Wait a further 10 seconds and turn the heater back on again.
The lockout mode should now be canceled and the heater operating normally.
