ACCESS PANEL
• A sealed access panel is required when using this
system in conjunction with below floor ventilation.
Access is necessary to complete gas connections, gas leak
tests, and periodic service requirements at the rear of the
refrigerator.
Access panel dimensions
22"
• If the refrigerator is located within the vehicle interior it
must be completely sealed to prevent products of com-
bustion or raw gas leakage within the living space! If it
is placed alongside the sidewall and floor ventilation is
provided, rear access is still required.
• The door or panel should prevent water entry.
DUCT
An air duct extends downwardly from the refrigerator through
a floor of the vehicle. If the refrigerator is not equipped with
a fan, a fan must be installed in the duct to aid air circulation.
Air for cooling the condenser and absorber is drawn up the
duct from outside the vehicle and exhausted outside the vehi-
cle through an upper duct and vent in a roof of the vehicle.
The duct must be centered horizontally on the back of the
refrigerator and should have the following dimensions:
Length (L): 11-34" min - max values
Width (W): 6.5"
Depth (D): 4-54" min - max values
