Statutory regulations governing installation
2.2.2. The internal combustion heater must not pose a fire hazard even
when overheated. This requirement is deemed to have been met if care
is taken during installation to ensure an adequate distance from all parts,
as well as adequate ventilation and if fire-resistant materials or heat
shields are used.
2.2.3. In class M2 and M3 vehicles the heater must not be installed in
the passenger cabin. A device in a sealed cover, which also meets the
requirements set out in paragraph 2.2.2, may be used, however.
2.2.4. The plate mentioned in paragraph 4 (model plate) or a duplicate
thereof (duplicate model plate) must be fitted in such a way that it is still
clearly legible when the heater has been installed in the vehicle.
2.2.5. When positioning the heater, all reasonable precautions must be
taken to minimise the risk of personal injury or damage to items in the
vehicle.
2.3. Fuel supply
2.3.1. The fuel filler neck must not be located in the passenger
compartment and must have a tightly fitting cap to prevent any fuel
leaks.
2.3.2. The type of fuel and the fuel filler neck must be clearly identified
on heaters for liquid fuel, for which the fuel supply is separate from the
fuel supply for the vehicle.
2.3.3. A sign must be affixed to the fuel filler neck warning that the heater
must be switched off before refuelling. An identical warning must also be
included in the manufacturer's operating instructions.

2.4. Exhaust system

2.4.1. The exhaust outlet must be positioned in such a way that exhaust
fumes cannot get into the interior of the vehicle through ventilation
devices, hot-air inlets or open windows.
