vent openings. These openings may be larger or
smaller than 355 x355 mm and will need modification.

approximately 100 Kg it meets this requirement).

Check location acceptability before beginning the in-
stallation.
1. If possible, mount the air conditioner in a section of
the roof which is both flat and level when the van
is parked on a level surface; otherwise, a sideways
pitch or forward pitch up to 20 degrees can be
tolerated but a backward pitch can NEVER be
accepted.
2. Check on the roof to be sure no obstructions are
in the area where the air conditioner will be in-
stalled.
3. Check inside where the air conditioner air box will
be located to insure there will be no interference
with door openings, curtains, room dividers, etc.
