- all packing components must be disposed of (preferably recycled) in compliance with statutory legislation in the country in which disposal

takes place

- all product components must be disposed of (preferably recycled) in compliance with statutory legislation in the country in which disposal

takes place

- for correct disposal, the appliance must be consigned to an authorised waste disposal company to ensure that all recyclable components

are reused and the remaining materials are processed properly

- during installation ensure the room has adequate ventilation to prevent the build-up of stale air that might be harmful to the health of the

1.2. Manufacturer and air conditioner data plate

1.3. Description of the air conditioner

This air conditioner has been designed and manufactured to be installed

onto vehicles (i.e. camping-cars, caravans, motorhomes) to improve the

temperature conditions. It supplies fresh and dehumidiﬁed air in summer

and warm air in winter without, in any case, replacing the heating system

of the vehicle. In both cases, temperature is set by the user.

Fresh air - Running

The system is inclusive of: compressor ( a ), condenser ( b ), evapora-

tor ( d ) and refrigerant gas under pressure. According to the physical

state of the refrigerant gas -i.e. liquid or gaseous, it heats or cools the

components where it passes through.

Fan ( c ) forces the internal air through the cooled evaporator from where

it comes out cooled down and dehumidiﬁed.

This action, protracted over the time, reduces the temperature into

the vehicle.

Hot air – Description of operation

The refrigerant gas cycle can be inverted by a solenoid valve (f). The

heat accumulated by the refrigerant gas is dispersed by the internal

heat exchanger which uses the fan (c) to deliver the heat into the

passenger compartment. Over time, this increases the temperature

inside the vehicle.

1.4. How to use the air conditioner

The air conditioner performance can be improved by taking some

simple measures.

Improve the thermal insulation of the vehicle by closing any opening

and by covering any glassed surfaces with reﬂecting curtains.

Avoid opening doors and windows unnecessarily.

Select the most suitable temperature and speed.

Properly direct the air ﬂaps.

To prevent troubles and minimise risks for people, take the following

precautions:

Do not obstruct the air inlets and outlets with cloths, paper or other

objects;

Do not introduce your hands or other objects into the openings;

Do not spray the air conditioner with water;

Keep ﬂammable substances away from the air conditioner.

•

Adjusting the air direction

Position the air diffusing ﬂaps to direct the air to the desired position. In order to balance the airﬂow it’s necessary to rotate the center knob in

anticlockwise, to choose the wished position and then rotate clockwise.
