A. Product features or specifications as described or illus-
trated are subject to change without notice.
B. This Air Conditioner Is Designed For:
1. Installation on a recreational vehicle during the time
the vehicle is manufactured.
2. Mounting on the roof of a recreational vehicle.
3. Roof construction with rafters/joists on minimum of
16 inch centers.
4. Minimum of 2.00 inches and maximum of 5.50
inches distance between roof to ceiling of recre-
ational vehicle. Alternate installation methods will
allow forroofs more than 5.50 inches thick.
C. The ability of the air conditioner to maintain the desired
inside temperature depends on the heat gain of the RV.
Some preventative measures taken by the occupants of
the RV 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 RV in a shaded area
2. Using window shades (blinds and/or curtains)
3. Keeping windows and doors shut or minimizing us
age
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 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.
D. Condensation
Note: The manufacturer of this air conditioner will not be
responsible for damage caused by condensed moisture on
ceilings or other surfaces. Air contains moisture and this
moisture tends to condense on cold surfaces. When air
enters the RV, condensed moisture may appear on the
ceiling, windows, metal parts, etc. The air conditioner re-
moves this moisture from the air during normal operation.
Keeping doors and windows closed when this air conditioner
is in operation will minimize condensed moisture on cold
surfaces.
