Installing the refrigerator RM10.5(S)(T), RMS10.5(X)(S)(T)
22
• If the minimum distance between the air inlet and outlet vents cannot be met, a
roof vent must be installed instead of the air outlet vent.
– The roof vent should be installed directly above the back of the refrigerator as
far as this is possible. Use an air duct (fig. 7 1, page 6) if you need to install
the roof vent offset; otherwise, heat will accumulate there.
– The distance between the air inlet vent and the roof vent must be at least
750 mm for RM10.5 and 534 mm for RMS10.5 (fig. 7, page 6).
– If a roof air conditioner is provided, the distance between the roof vent
(fig. 8 1, page 7) and the air outlet of the roof air conditioner (fig. 8 2,
page 7) must be at least 300 mm.
• The refrigerator must not be installed at the side of the air inlet and outlet vents as
this leads to poor performance and increases the power consumption of the
refrigerator.
• The air inlet and outlet vents must not be covered by vehicle parts (such as an
open door or by installing accessories such as bicycle racks) while operating.
• Install the refrigerator so that it is protected from excessive heat, as this leads to
poor performance and increases the power consumption of the refrigerator.
• The refrigerator must be installed in a draft-proof location.
5.2 Installing the refrigerator in a draft-proof location
!
Gas-powered refrigerators in caravans or motor homes must be installed in a draft-
free location. This means that the combustion air is not extracted from the interior
and the exhaust fumes are prevented from directly entering the living space.
A suitable seal must be fitted between the rear panel of the refrigerator and the inte-
rior of the vehicle.
The manufacturer recommends using a flexible seal to ease removal and installation
for maintenance purposes.
Select one of the three versions for draft-proof installation (fig. 9, page 8):
WARNING! Fire hazard!
Do not use flammable materials such as silicone sealants, foam or similar
for the draft-proof installation.
