Interior

Air Conditioner

The roof A/C used on Airstream Touring Coach's
are one of the most popular on the market today� In
your owner's packet is a set of literature covering all
operating and maintenance instructions� If the literature
is misplaced, contact the A/C manufacturer or your
Airstream dealer for replacement�
Proper voltage to the A/C is critical� A volt meter
check may find voltage much lower at a campground
shoreline outlet than the needed 110 to 120 volts� Your
A/C may not function if the current drops below 105
volts� Low voltage is usually associated with older or
poorly maintained motorhome parks� Parking your
touring coach so the power cord can be plugged in to a
receptacle close to the fuse or circuit breaker box can
alleviate low voltage problems� Avoid extension cords
and adapters whenever possible� If an extension cord
must be used, it should be rated at 30 amps and as
short as possible to provide the most current�
If high temperatures are expected, make an effort
to park in a shaded area� Starting the A/C early in
the morning also helps. It is more efficient to hold
a comfortable temperature than it is to lower the
temperature after the interior of the touring coach is
already hot�
NOTE
Review the air conditioning literature supplied in
your owner's packet before proceeding.

Exhaust Fans

In the bathroom, round ventilators are used and are
opened by pushing straight up on the crossbar handle
and pressing the red switch to engage the fan motor�
5-18

High Volume Roof Vent

The high-volume roof vent system is designed to
quickly exhaust stale, hot air and draw in fresh air� It
is great to use when the outside temperature does not
call for air conditioning, but heat has built up in your
touring coach� The core of the system is a powerful
rotary fan that works with a slightly open window to
create a balanced airflow. It is designed for maximum
air exchange, minimum sound levels and power
consumption� Fresh, clean, natural air is pulled in� Hot,
stale, stuffy air is pushed out�
The controls for the roof vent have been incorporated
into the Multiplex System� The vent lid can be opened
or closed by pressing the UP/DOWN arrow buttons
on any of the multiplex touch screen control panels
located in the front or rear of the touring coach� Select
the desired fan speed of either; low, medium, or high�
NOTE
Never place Lindeen™ or a like cover over ceiling
fan. Greatly restricted airflow and increased sound
levels will occur.

Thermostat and Rain Sensor

The fan is equipped with a built-in thermostat� Set
the fan to auto and select your comfort setting on the
multiplex control panel and the fan will automatically
turn on and off as your touring coach heats up and
cools down� When the rain sensor becomes wet the
dome will close automatically and shut the fan off�
Once the sensor has dried out the dome will reopen
and the fan will restart�
NOTE
The vent can be put into auto mode only when
HVAC is set to off. In auto the vents will only shut
off and close when the temperature is 2° below the
set point. Setting the climate control to anything
other than off will bring the vent fan out of auto
NOTE
Fan motor will not start if temperature selected is
warmer than interior temperature of the coach.
