6.2 Steps for installation
A
6.2.1 Checking installation conditions
➤
Before installation, check (by consulting the manufacturer of the
vehicle) whether the construction is designed for the static weight and
the loads of the air conditioning roof unit when the vehicle is in motion.
The manufacturer of the roof air conditioner assumes no liability what-
soever.
Cabins with a sunroof generally have a robust structure in order to
bear the weight of the air conditioner.
Where this is not the case, and the structure is not rigid enough to
bear the weight of the air conditioner (e.g. fibreglass roofs or for roofs
with pre-existing cut-out sections), you must check whether the cabin
roof needs to be strengthened.
➤
Check the minimum requirements for the installation of an air
conditioning roof unit
– Vehicle voltage
– Power consumption
– Generator power
– Size and load bearing capacity of the cabin
CAUTION!
Improper installation of the air conditioning roof unit can result in
irreparable damage to the device and put the safety of the user at risk.
The manufacturer will not be held liable for claims if the air conditioning
roof unit is not installed according to this installation manual. That
applies to malfunctions and the safety of the air conditioning roof unit, in
particular to injuries and damage to property.
NOTICE!
 The manufacturer only assumes liability for parts included in the
scope of delivery. The validity of the warranty expires if the device is
installed together with third-party parts.
 Check whether the roof of the vehicle is able to support the weight of
a person before climbing onto it. Ask the vehicle manufacturer about
the permitted roof loads.
 Before installing the air conditioning system on the roof, protect the
upper part of the cabin with a cloth or a blanket to prevent any
scratches or damages.
