Burstner Lyseo 744
Hi Everyone - sorry if this is old hat but I am a newbie desperately feeling his way through a second hand setup.
We bought a 2021 Burstner Lyseo Privilege TD 744 and first of all must say we are very pleased with the vehicle.
However we have had to work through a lot of minor issues (not problems).
I am guessing the build was affected by the dreaded CV19 because the Fiat Ducato 2.3 140 returns as a 2019 model, it has the AddBlue tank but does not appear to have a smart alternator (not an issue for me, I'm not very smart! :D).
Other bits of kit don't quite tie in with the sales bumph of the period (Fiat 2019 - 1st registered 2021).
My biggest issue is with the Truma heater. The manual we have is titled TRUMA COMBI (E) so we expected gas or electric or gas electric mix).
The plate on the boiler says TRUMA COMBI 6 with a long rambling code CBG06EU-E-3122338. I assumed the middle "E" indicated the electric system.
I did notice it only mentions DC voltage on the plate there is no reference to 240v AC.
We had an issue of not being able to get the electric symbols on the control panel so I started researching and I am getting more confused than I initially thought.
I am beginning to wonder if the model is gas only and we simply have been given the wrong manual? Just for reference the boiler works well on gas.
Any Truma experts will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Peter

OK thanks for the concise answers - saved me a long trip to the concession and some embarrassment, its a bit of a disappointment but not the end of the world - as I said it works well.

If I am allowed to ask for non related topic advice?

The only other concerning issue I have remaining is the leisure battery which is shot. Its a 100ah EZA AGM that looks pretty new so leads me to surmise that this is at least the second AGM in less than 4 years. I don't want to start hacking and slashing (LIFEPO4) just yet and have read a lot of threads about battery suitability but can anyone offer a definitive answer to which lead acid technology is best from the basic - flooded, gel, agm - herd.
I know and understand the benefits of LIFEPO4 having...
The middle "E" seems to be a year of manufacture or model version from Truma rather than anything to do with capability.

From the webpage I'm linking to -> https://www.truma.com/gb/compability-inet-x-system/

CBG06EU seems to be the model code and indicates a gas-only Combi 6 boiler.

The CBG prefix seems indicate gas only, wheras CBX would be gas + electric.

Welcome! If it’s Combi 6 then it’s gas only. Mine says Combi 6 E on the plate (above the rambling code) and is gas and electricity. The long rambling code is a serial number I believe.

I know and understand the benefits of LIFEPO4 having built my own home solar energy system with DIY 12kw LIFEPO4 battery but knowing how delicate the charging voltage has to be tuned (I never go over 14v) I want to stick with a simple one or two battery old school replacement.
So will the Elektroblock 119 handle a starter battery?? (cannot see label) plus 2 x 200ah leisure batteries and which of the old technologies charges fastest (if there is any such thing as fastest?).
Thanks again - sorry if it needs posting elsewhere - feel free to cut and paste :D
