Air Leaks - Dometic S1521 Service Tips Manual

VENTILATION
The coach vent system must be able to provide a way to direct the hot air, produced by the action of the
cooling unit, out away from the installation of the refrigerator. In a proper installation, there should be as
little open space as possible surrounding the sides and top of the refrigerator to achieve proper air flow.
NOTE: Refrigerator should be installed in accordance with appropriate installation instructions
received with the refrigerator.

AIR LEAKS

Check the gasket on the doors to be sure of a positive air seal.
If a gasket is not sealing properly, first warm the gasket material with a hair drier. Close the door and
the magnetic strip should pull the gasket to the
metal frame. Also check that the cooling unit
is installed properly.
