GENERAL INFORMATION
A.
Product features or specifications as described or
illustrated are subject to change without notice.
B. This Air Conditioner Is Designed For:
1. Installation on a Caravan during the time the Cara-
van is manufactured.
2. Mounting on the roof of a Caravan.
3. Roof construction with rafters/joists on minimum of
406mm centers.
4. Minimum of 25mm and maximum of 100mm dis-
tance between roof to ceiling of Caravan. Alternate
installation methods will allow for roofs more than
100mm thick.
C.
The ability of the air conditioner to maintain the desired
inside temperature depends on the heat gain of the
Caravan.
Some preventative measures taken by the occupants of
the Caravan can reduce the heat gain and improve the
performance of the air conditioner. During extremely
high outdoor temperatures, the heat gain of the Caravan
may be reduced by:
1. Parking the Caravan in a shaded area
2. Using window shades (blinds and/or curtains)
3. Keeping windows and doors shut or minimizing
usage
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
temperatures.
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,
accessories like an outdoor patio and window awning 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 Caravan, condensed moisture may appear on the
ceiling, windows, metal parts, etc. The air conditioner
removes 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.
