4-9.3.3 General Information
The ability of the air conditioner to maintain the desired inside temperature depends on the heat gain of the coach. Some
preventative measures taken by the occupants of the coach can reduce the heat gain and improve the performance of the air
conditioner. During extremely high outdoor temperatures, the heat gain of the vehicle may be reduced by:
Parking the coach in a shaded area.
Using window shades (blinds and/or curtains).
Keeping windows and doors shut or minimizing usage.
Avoiding the use of heat producing appliances.
Starting the air conditioner early in the morning and giving it a “head start” on the expected high outdoor ambient
temperature will greatly improve its ability to maintain the desired indoor temperature.
The manufacturer of this air conditioner will not be responsible for damage caused by condensed moisture on ceilings or
other surfaces. Air contains moisture and this moisture tends to condense on cold surfaces. When air enters the coach,
condensed moisture may appear on the ceiling windows, metal parts, etc. The air conditioner removes this moisture from
the air during normal operation. Keeping doors and windows closed when this air conditioner is in operation will minimize
condensed moisture on cold surfaces.
This equipment must be serviced by qualifi ed personnel and some states require these people to be licensed.
4-9.3.4 Rebooting
