Check whether there are holes or grooves on

CAUTION
Fill the groove on the surface where the mount-
ing plate is contacting the top part of the vehicle
with the unhardened sealant (the maximum
thickness is 1cm); When the mounting plate is
installed on the top of vehicle, fill the sealant in
the gap between the mounting plate and the
vehicle roof. The mounting plate should be
tightly sealed with the roof of the vehicle to
prevent water leakage.

Install it into the opening on the top of the vehicle
according to the indicate direction by the arrow
(the direction of arrow should be the same with
the head of the vehicle).
The roof top air conditioner must be mounted on a level plane from front to rear and side to
side when the vehicle is parked on a level plane. Figure 2 shows maximum allowable degrees
that the unit can be mounted above or below level.
.
The front section of outdoor unit of air conditioner must be in the same direction as the vehicle,
which is useful for reducing wind resistance.
If the roof of the vehicle is sloped (not level) such that the roof top air conditioner cannot be
mounted within the maximum allowable degree specifications, an exterior leveling shim will
need to be added to make the unit level. A typical leveling shim is shown in Figure 3.
Once the roof top air conditioner has been leveled, some additional shimming may be required
above the interior ceiling assembly. The roof top air conditioner and the interior ceiling assembly
must be square with each other before they are secured together.
After the mounting hole area is properly prepared, remove the carton and shipping pads from
around the roof top air conditioner. Carefully lift the unit on top of the vehicle. Do not use the outer
plastic shroud for lifting. Place the roof top air conditioner over the prepared mounting hole.
