Generally information for a/c unit
Attention in case of roof top a/c units: Never switch on the a/c unit during car-
wash!
−
The a/c unit is operational with running engine only.
−
At cooling operation the humidity inside the vehicle is decreased, which avoids steamed up
windows.
−
The a/c unit works most effectively with windows and doors shut. If, however, the interior of the
standing vehicle has been heated up severely by exposure to sunlight, short-time opening of
windows and doors may accelerate the cooling down process.
−
At high outside temperature and humidity condensate might drip off the evaporator and make a
puddle under the vehicle. This is quite normal and no sign for a leakage.
−
The filter in the return air grid (optional) retains pollution. If the external air is contaminated with
gas switch over to return air operation. The filter should be cleaned or replaced respectively on
a regular basis so that the capacity of the a/c unit is not affected.
−
If you think that the air conditioning unit has been damaged
switch it off immediately
in order
to avoid further damage. The air conditioning unit may be taken into operation again only after
it has been checked at a KONVEKTA Service Station
.

Operating Conditions
NOTE:
KONVEKTA uses components made of copper and aluminium, which last a whole unit
lifetime under normal environmental conditions. Should the units be operated under aggressive
environmental conditions, i.e. air containing salt-, phosphate- or ammoniac extremely, a corrosion
of the cupper- and aluminium components cannot be ruled out. The cupper- and aluminium com-
ponents of the KONVEKTA systems are not suitable for such extreme application conditions. We
indicate emphatically, that corrosion is not subject to warranties for defects. KONVEKTA does not
take over any warranties for defect, neither for corrosion nor for consequential damage resulting
there from, nor for damages caused by cleaning the systems with highly compressed or corrosion
advancing substances.
3. Operation
Attention in case of roof top a/c units: Never switch on the a/c unit during
car-wash!
Danger of accidents!
-
Focussing your attention on the road traffic is of top priority.
-
Only operate your air conditioning unit when the traffic situation allows it!
-
Please note that the control panel keys have not been designed for heavy stressing.
-
Excessive or fast pressing of the keys for adjusting the set temperature does not accelerate
the cooling down process. It possibly damages the control panel and so affects the general
performance of the air conditioning unit.
