Caution
Frigoboat Appliance (opt)
◊
On the Grand Soleil 46.3' is possible to install a mechanical
compressor "Frigoboat" (Opt) connected to the engine. It is
driven by the engine and it is positioned in its front part. Half an
hour run at about 1200 rev. twice a day should be sufficient to
reach and maintain the right cooling temperature.
Other installation components
◊
The temperature adjusting thermostat is positioned inside the
fridge compartment.
◊
The capacitor and the filter of the Frigoboat (Opt) are inside the
engine compartment.
◊
A hole in the lower part of the fridge unit collects condensation
water; this water is drained out through a clear pipe positioned in
the compartment under the refrigerator.
Maintenance
• Check frequently that the collecting hole of refrigerator unit is
clear and empty the draining pipe; than close back the valve of the
fridge drain to avoid loss of cold and uncontrolled spillage of the
condensation water in the bilge.
• To avoid foul odours, the inside of the fridge must always be very
clean.
• When the boat is left unattended for a long time and the fridge is
not running, it is advisable to leave unit lid ajar for ventilation.
• In case of poor cooling of the plates and every two or three years
anyhow, it is advisable to call in a technician for check and
eventual refill of cooling gas inside the system.
• The Frigoboat (Opt) does not need particular care : it is yet
advisable to cheek frequently the driving belts located in the fore
part of the main pulley in front of the engine.
We advise you read the owner’s directions and maintenance
manual given by the manufacturer.
