readily accessible at all times for servicing work, and can be

In installation situations where space is restricted, the
2 connecting cables (power cable and IR receiver cable)
must be long enough for the system to be withdrawn with the
cables attached and the cover opened.

In order to achieve homogeneous vehicle cooling, the
air conditioning unit must be installed in a central loca-
tion in a false floor or the like so that the cold air is evenly
distributed.
The air conditioning unit is attached to the floor, which must
be level and smooth. If necessary, in, for example, uneven
ground, the air inlet (LE), air outlet (LA) and connectors (11)
can be fitted with additional seals.

The air that is to be cooled is drawn in again by the unit from
the vehicle interior through openings with a total area of at
least 300 cm².
in external stowage containers (e.g. double bottoms) suitable
steps must be taken to ensure that the air which is to be
cooled is extracted from the interior of the vehicle. The suc-
tion intake of air from the outside can severely impair the ef-
fect of the air conditioning system.
If possible, position the unit so that the frame of the vehicle is
between the air inlet (LE) and the air outlet (LA).
Place the installation template into the stowage box that is
intended for installation and check the space situation for the
floor openings. The air conditioning unit should have at least
20 mm of clearance at the sides and 30 mm at the rear from
walls and any furniture items in order to prevent noise trans-
mission during operation. The minimum clearance at the front
is 200 mm, so that the fluff/particle filter can be changed.
