At high ambient temperatures the refrigeration unit will

only perform adequately when properly ventilated.

The ventilation passage at the rear of the recess, be-

tween the outer wall of the vehicle and the refrigerator

must be completely sealed off from the interior of the

caravan. Neither flue gas nor (cold) air from the ventila-

tion openings in the wall of the caravan (outer wall of the

ventilation passage) must be able to pass into the interior

of the caravan.

The side walls of the shaft should be thermally insulated

to prevent condensation and cold draughts. Shaft wall

sections located above and below the exhaust gas vent

must not be made of flammable materials.

Proper installation requires one lower fresh air intake

and one upper exhaust vent (fig. 6a).

These should have a free flow-through area of at least

400 cm

Fresh air enters through the lower opening and warm air

is discharged through the upper exhaust vent.

The lower opening should be located at floor level ( to

allow any leaking gas to escape to the outside).

The ventilation of the cooling unit can also be done via

two openings in the wall of the caravan (fig. 6 b).

Fresh air enters through the lower opening and warm air

is discharged through the upper one.

FIG. 6b

The upper ventilation opening should be located above

the condenser, as high as possible, to ensure good

ventilation.

The lower opening should be located at floor level ( to

allow any leaking gas to escape to the outside).

The openings in the caravan wall must be fitted with

suitable grilles with sufficient heat resistance. These

should have a free flow-through area of at least 400 cm

Please observe that fly netting behind the grilles can

reduce the area by as much as 50%.

If there is no outer grille at floor level where leaking gas

can escape, a 40 mm hole to the outside should be made

in the floor of the recess to drain any unburnt gas to the

outside.

Fit the hole with wire mesh and an angled plate to protect

it from stones, mud etc.

LP GAS CONNECTION

The refrigerator is designed for operation on LP gas, the

pressure of which must be 28 mbar for Butane and 37 mbar

for Propane. Check that this is stated on the data plate.

The refrigerator is not designed for operation on

town gas or natural gas.

CAUTION! CHECK THAT THE GAS SUPPLIED

TO THE REFRIGERATOR IS AT THE CORRECT

PRESSURE. SEE THE REDUCING VALVE ON

THE LP GAS CONTAINER.

The gas installation should only be carried out by a

person experienced in gas fitting. It is recommended that

the gas pipe feeding the refrigerator is so arranged that

it is possible to turn off the supply of the refrigerator.

It must be of a type approved for use with continuously

operating bottled gas appliances, and have threaded

compression connections throughout. PUSH-ON CON-

NECTIONS MUST NOT BE USED (We do not recom-

mend the use of "rubber" type flexible tubing for

NOTE: Wood Strip
