General Information
A. The ability of the air conditioner to maintain the desired inside tempera-
ture depends on the heat gain of the RV. Some preventative measures
taken by the occupants of the RV 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:
1. Parking the RV in a shaded area.
2. Using window shades (blinds and/or curtains).
3. Keeping windows and doors shut or minimizing usage.
4. Avoiding the use of heat producing appliances.
Operation on High Fan/Cooling mode will give optimum or maximum
efficiency in high humidity or high outside temperatures.
Starting the air conditioner early in the morning and giving it a "head
start" on the expected high outdoor ambient will greatly improve its ability
to maintain the desired indoor temperature.
For a more permanent solution to high heat gain, accessories like Dometic
outdoor patio and window awnings will reduce heat gain by removing
the direct sun. They also add a nice area to enjoy company during the
cool of the evening.
B. The manufacturer of this air conditioner will not be responsible for dam-
age 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 RV, condensed moisture may appear on the ceiling,
windows, metal parts, etc. During normal operation, this unit removes
moisture from the air. Keeping doors and windows closed when this air
conditioner is in operation will minimize condensed moisture on cold
surfaces.
Maintenance
Air Filter -
Periodic (a minimum of every 2 weeks of operation) remove the
return air filter located behind the return air grill and wash the filter with soap
and warm water. Let dry and then reinstall.
NEVER
run the air conditioner
without the air filter in place. This may plug the unit evaporator coil with dirt
and substantially degrade the performance of the unit over time.
Dometic Single Zone LCD thermostat:
Clean the Single Zone LCD ther-
mostat with a moist soft cloth.
DO NOT
spray water directly on the Single
Zone LCD thermostat.
DO NOT
use solvents for cleaning.
