Installing the refrigerator

6.1

Preparing the installation

When installing the refrigerator, note the following:
 To enable the refrigerant to circulate properly, the refrigerator may not
exceed an angle of 3 °.
To do this, park the vehicle on a level surface and check to see if the
ice-cube tray is flat in the refrigerator.
 The refrigerator must be installed so that it is easily accessible for service
work, easy to de-install and install and can be easily removed from the
vehicle.
 The distance between the refrigerator and the rear wall must be at least
20 mm.
 The refrigerator must be installed in a recess so that it stands firm when
the vehicle is in motion. Note the following dimensions here (H x W x D in
mm):
– RML9330/9331/9335: 1293 x 420 x 586.5 (fig. 1, page 2)
– RML9430/9431/9435: 1293 x 468 x 553 (fig. 2, page 2)
 The outer wall must be fitted with an air inlet vent (fig. 3 1, page 3) and
an outlet vent (fig. 3 2, page 3) with ventilation grilles so that the heat
generated can be easily released to the outside:
– Air inlet vent: Fit the ventilation grille as flush as possible to the floor of
the installation niche with a minimum cross-section of 500 cm².
– Outlet vent: fit as far above the refrigerator as possible.
– The distance between the air inlet and outlet vents must be at least
1050 mm (fig. 4, page 3).
 Fit a heat conduction plate (fig. 3 3, page 3) above the refrigerator so
that the heat does not accumulate in the vehicle.
