A.
Product features or specifications as described or illus-
trated are subject to change without notice.
The following are the basic requirements:
1.
Installation opening. Cut through the roof and ceil-
ing.
2.
Additional Wiring.
220-240 VAC, 50 Hz. 10 Amp.
3.
Power with the air conditioner on must be above 209
VAC and the frequency must be at 50 HZ. at all
times.
B.
This Air Conditioner Is Designed For:
1.
Installation on a Caravan during the time the ve-
hicle is manufactured.
2.
Mounting on the roof of a Caravan.
3.
Roof construction with rafters/joists on minimum of
40.6 cm centers.
4.
Minimum of 5 cm and maximum of 10 cm distance
between roof to ceiling of Caravan.
C.
The ability of the air conditioner to maintain the desired
inside temperature depends on the heat gain of the
Caravan.
Some preventative measures taken by the occupants of
the Caravan 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 Caravan 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 tem-
peratures.
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, accesso-
ries like Dometic A&E 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.
