Preparing the installation
A
When installing the refrigerator, note the following:
•
To enable the refrigerant to circulate properly, the refrigerator may not exceed an
angle of 3 °.
Park the vehicle horizontally for this purpose.
•
The refrigerator must be installed so that
–
it is easily accessible for service work
–
easy to de-install and install
–
can be easily removed from the vehicle
•
The refrigerator must be installed in a recess so that it stands firm when the vehicle
is in motion. Note the dimensions in fig.
•
The outer wall must be fitted with an air inlet vent (fig.
1, page 3) and an outlet
2, page 3) with ventilation grills so that the heat generated can be
easily released to the outside:
–
Air inlet vent: Fit ventilation grill as flush as possible with the base of the
installation niche.
–
Outlet vent: fit as far above the refrigerator as possible.
–
The distance between the air inlet and outlet vents must be at least 1250 mm
(49.21 in.) (fig.
•
Fit a heat conduction plate (fig.
1, page 3) above the refrigerator so that the
heat does not accumulate in the vehicle.
•
The distance between the refrigerator and the rear wall must be at least 15 mm
(0.59 in.) but no more than 25 mm (0.98 in.).
•
A distance of more than 25 mm (0.98 in.) between the refrigerator and rear wall
leads to poor performance and increases the power consumption of the refriger-
ator. Reduce the space behind the refrigerator to create adequate air inlet and
outlet ventilation (fig.
, page 4). Use a ventilation plate, for example, to do
this.
NOTICE!
•
The refrigerator may not be installed in the rear of mobile homes with
the door pointing in the direction of travel.
•
Use exclusively original Dometic ventilation grills to ensure safe
operation.
