OPTIONS
AIR CONDITIONER (Option – Kiwi; Standard – Kiwi Too)
Air conditioners may be installed by the Jayco factory or by your dealer. If you did not
buy your travel trailer with the optional air conditioner, one of your roof vents may be
pre-wired for later installation. Your dealer can provide you with additional information
concerning this.
There are a variety of air conditioners available. For specific instructions for the air
conditioner, consult your dealer and the manufacturer’s owner’s manual.
Some models have Central Air Conditioning available. All cooled air is moved through a
duct built into roof and enters travel trailer thorough a group of round registers.
Keep all registers open to insure full airflow. Closing the register(s) may cause the
compressor to freeze, which could shut down the cooling process.
A special foam gasket is placed between the roof material and the subframe of the air
conditioner to guard against water leakage.
An air conditioner is subjected to wind pressures along with motor vibration during
normal operation. Annually inspect the mounting bolts for tightness to ensure there is no
leakage or looseness. Retighten bolts when they are loose. DO NOT overtighten these
bolts as it may damage the gasket.
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.
MICROWAVE OVEN / CONVECTION OVEN
The microwave oven or convection oven in the unit operates on the same principle as the
microwave/convection in your kitchen at home. A separate owner’s manual is provided
with detailed instructions for its use.
