SECURING THE REFRIGERATOR
For the best cooling performance, when installing the refrigera-
tor model(s):
RM 2355 - the installer must block the space between the
storage cabinet and the top of the refrigerator.
RM 2455, RM 2555 & RM 4605 - the installer must block
any space between the counter, storage area or ceiling and
top of the refrigerator greater than 40 mm.
Otherwise the heat will become trapped in this space, making
the top of the refrigerator hot, thus reducing the efficiency of
the unit.
After the refrigerator is put in place, insuring a combustion
seal at the front frame, the refrigerator is to be secured in the
enclosure with screws. (These screws are not included.)
Failure to follow the sequence in securing the refrigerator in
enclosure can cause leakage between the frame and cabinet.
The five screws should be installed in the
following order:
Four screws installed through the front
frame.
One screw installed in rear base.
The six screws have to be installed in the follow-
ing order:
Two screws installed through the front base.
This step also includes the installation of the
lower front strip. The refrigerator is pro-
vided with a lower front strip (shipped as a
loose part) which is to be attached after the
refrigerator is set into the cutout opening.
Install the lower front strip by sliding it
under the bottom hinge plate, as shown
in Fig. 12.
The hinge
plate can be
on the right
or left side
depending
on the door
swing.

INSTALLATION/BUILDING-IN
The refrigerator must not be exposed to radiated heat from hot
objects. Excessive heat irradiation impairs performance and
leads to increased energy consumption. For this reason the re-
frigerator should be installed if possible not at the entrance side
of the vehicle - normally orientated south and often with an
awning which would impair the dispersion of heat and combus-
tion gases from the ventilation openings.
It is not a good practice to install the refrigerator so that the
vent openings are covered by the vehicle’s entrance door when
this is set open. This would reduce the ventilation airflow to the
cooling unit and reduce refrigeration performance.
The refrigerator has to be installed in a substantial enclosure
and must be level. For information about dimensions, see
”
TEChNICAL DATA
”.
The bottom of the enclosure must be horizontal and even so
that the refrigerator can be easily pushed into place. It must be
sturdy enough to carry the weight of the refrigerator.
A length of sealing strip is
applied to the rear surface
of the front frame for this
purpose, see Fig. 8 / Fig. 9.
Make sure that there is a
complete seal between the
front frame of the refrig-
erator and top, sides and
bottom of the enclosure.
Push the refrigerator into
the recess until the sealing
strip on the flange seals
against the front of the
recess, so that the cooling
unit is completely sealed
off against the interior of
the motorhome.
Note!
Be careful not to
damage the sealing strip
when the refrigerator is
put in place.
A wood strip must be in place across the upper
opening of the enclosure. The top frame of the
refrigerator will be anchored to the wood strip
with screws.
