Roof Mount (If So Equipped)
The roof mounted air conditioning system is controlled by a thermostat. Cooled air enters
the RV through the adjustable “chill grill.” Make sure you have sufficient power available
before operating the air conditioner. Do not operate the air conditioner without the return
air filter. Operating the system without the filter allows the lint and dirt that is normally
stopped by the filter to accumulate on the cooling coil of the air conditioner. This also will
lead to a loss of air volume, possible equipment damage and an expensive cleaning
process.
A special foam gasket is placed between the roof material and the subframe of the air
conditioner to guard against water leakage. The air conditioner is subjected to wind
pressures along with motor vibration during normal operation. Inspect the mounting bolts
for tightness to ensure there is no leakage or looseness at least annually. Re-tighten bolts
when they are loose. DO NOT over tighten these bolts as it may damage this gasket. The
air conditioner gasket is a wearable part that eventually will need to be replaced. To gain
access to the bolts, remove the filtered panel cover on central air systems or the entire air
box on non-central air conditioners. Consult the manufacturer’s operators manual or your
RV dealer for more information.
For additional information refer to the manufacturer’s owner’s manual included in your
warranty packet.
Wall Mount (If So Equipped)
The wall mounted air conditioning system is controlled by a thermostat. Cooled air enters
the RV through the grill. Make sure you have sufficient power available before operating
the air conditioner. Do not operate the air conditioner without the return air filter.
Operating the system without the filter allows the lint and dirt that is normally stopped by
the filter to accumulate on the cooling coil of the air conditioner. This will lead to a loss of
air volume, along with possible machine failure. Keep the air inlet grill and cabinet clean
by wiping with a cloth dampened with warm water and a mild detergent.
For additional information refer to the manufacturer’s owner’s manual included in your
warranty packet.

The 12-volt DC attic fan (or powered roof vent) allows fresh air to circulate through the
recreation vehicle. Do not leave the attic fan open when the recreation vehicle is stored or
unattended for long periods.
High winds, other unusual conditions or obstructions may prevent the dome from closing;
the resulting leakage could cause non-warrantable damage.
To use your fan most effectively, close all vents and slightly
open a window on a shaded side of your recreation vehicle.
You are directing the air flow by opening a window. You will
receive the greatest airflow comfort by positioning yourself
between the window and the fan.
For additional information refer to the manufacturer’s
owner’s manual.
Control pad (if so equipped)
The attic fan may be controlled by a control pad. The dome can
be raised or lowered with the UP/DOWN buttons, and the speed
of the fan is controlled by the ARROW buttons. It is also
equipped with a rain sensor that will close the vent automatically when it rains. The rain
sensor can be turned on/off by holding the DOWN button for 3 seconds.
