It is preferred that the air conditioner be installed on a
relatively flat and level roof section measured with the caravan parked on a level surface.
Note: A 8° slant to either side is acceptable, but a Front
to Back slant is not acceptable.

font to Back Slope is NOT ACCEPTABLE
3. After location has been selected:
a. Check for obstructions in the area where air
conditioner will be installed. See FIG. 4.
b. The roof must be designed to support 65
Kg. when the caravan is in motion. Normally
a 00 Kg. static load design will meet this
requirement.
It is the responsibility of the installer of this
air conditioner system to ensure structural
integrity of the caravan roof. Never create a
low spot on the roof where water will collect.
Water standing around the air conditioner
may leak into the interior causing damage to
the product and the caravan.
c. Check inside the caravan for return air kit ob-
structions (i.e. door openings, room dividers,
curtains, ceiling fixtures, etc.). See FIG. 4 &
5.

C. Roof Preparation
. Opening requirements - Before preparing the ceil-
ing opening, read all of the following instructions
before beginning the installation.
If an existing roof vent opening will not be used
a 362mm x 362mm (± 3.2mm) opening must be
cut through the roof and ceiling of the caravan.
This opening must be located between the roof
reinforcing members.
There may be electrical wiring between the
roof and the ceiling. Disconnect 220 - 240 Volt
AC power cord and the positive (+) 12 Volt DC
terminal at the supply battery. Failure to follow
this instruction may create a shock hazard
causing death or severe personal injury.
The 362mm x 362mm (± 3.2mm) opening is part
of the return air system of the air conditioner and
must be finished in accordance with all nation and
local codes and/or regulations.
2. Roof vent removal
a. Unscrew and remove the roof vent.
b. Remove all caulking compound around open-
ing.
c. Seal all screw holes and seams where the
roof gasket is located. Use a good grade of
all weather sealant. See FIG. 6.
