PACKAGING
The
packaging
of this
appliance
is
designedto
withstand the
transportation
from the
factory
to the
point
where it will be
installed in the recreational vehicle.
Before
starting
to
install the
appliance, please,
make sure
all
parts
of the
packaging
have been
removed,
so
there will not
be
anything
left that
may
come
into contact with
hot
parts
of
the
appliance
or obstruct the combustion
exhaust
gases
or
the
air

VENTILATION
REQUIREMENTS
The installation shall be made
in
such a manner as to
separate
the combustion
system
from the
living space
of the mobile
home or recreational vehicle.
Proper
installation
requires
one
lower fresh air intake and one
upper
air outlet vent with a
separate gas
exhaust outlet.
We recommend
fitting
the Dometic ventilation
system,
which
is
specially developed by
Dometic for
this
purpose.
The
ven-
tilation kits must be installed and used without modification.
An
opening
toward the outside
at
floor level
in the
refrigera-
tor
compartment
must
be
provided
for ventilation of heavier-
than-air
fuel
gases.
The lower vent of the recommended kits
is
provided
with
proper
size
openings.
The
flow of combus-
tion and
ventilating
air
must not be obstructed.
The lower side vent
provides
an
adequate
access
opening
for
ready serviceability
of the burner
and
control manifold of the
refrigerator.
This should be
centred on the back of the
refrig
-
erator.
