Always check whether any vehicle components (such as lamps, cab-
inets and doors) could be damaged by installing the roof air condition-
er before doing so.
Before installation, find out (by consulting the manufacturer of the ve-
hicle) whether the construction is designed for the static weight and
the loads of the air conditioner when the vehicle is in motion. The man-
ufacturer of the roof air conditioner assumes no liability whatsoever.
The vehicle manufacturer may have already provided points where
the opening for the installation of the roof air conditioner can be made
without any risk of weakening the construction or cutting power ca-
bles.
Select a flat and sufficiently level area at the centre of the vehicle roof
between two longitudinal sections for installation.
Make sure no combustible objects are stored or installed near the air
outlet. A distance of at least 50 cm should be kept.
Make sure that there are no objects within the vehicle which could ob-
struct the attachment of the air distribution unit or the cooled air from
flowing through the swiveling air distribution nozzles.
For safety reasons, note the location of existing wiring harnesses,
wires and other components within the installation area, in particular
those which are not visible, when installing the roof air conditioner
(when drilling or screwing etc.).
Four weeks after the system is first used, check all device fixtures to
see that they are fitted securely.
If the mains plug is inaccessible after installation, an all-pole switch
with a contact opening width of at least 3 mm must be installed on the
installation side.
