Note on transport
Always have someone help you carry the roof air conditioner.
Always lift the roof air conditioner to move it and never drag it over the roof
(fig. 2A).
Do not use the rear ventilation slots to lift it (fig. 2B).
Note on installation location
Before installing the roof air conditioner, check whether any vehicle com-
ponents could be damaged by the installation of the roof air conditioner
(such as lamps, cupboards, doors).
Before installation, find out (by consulting the manufacturer of the vehicle)
whether the construction is designed for the static weight and the loads of
the air conditioner when the vehicle is in motion. The manufacturer 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 cables.
Select a flat and sufficiently level area at the centre of the vehicle roof
between two longitudinal sections for installation.
The roof inclination of the installation surface may not exceed 10°.
Make sure no combustible objects are stored or installed near the air out-
let. A distance of at least 50 cm should be kept.
Make sure that there are no objects within the vehicle which could
obstruct the attachment of the air outlet unit or the cooled air from flowing
through the swivelling 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.).
NOTICE! Beware of damage
Observe the structural engineering of the vehicle and seal of
all openings made when installing the roof air conditioner.
Check whether the roof of the vehicle is able to support the
weight of a person before climbing onto it. Ask the vehicle
manufacturer about the permissible roof loads.
