Ventilation And Air Extraction Of The Refrigerator - Dometic 8 Series Installation Instructions Manual

The refrigerator is later pushed into the instal-
lation recess from the front. Ensure that the
seals abut the case evenly.
This installation option facilitates the removal
and installation of the appliance for servicing.
Proposal 2
Fasten the sealing lips to a stop bar on the
rear side (1), e.g. by gluing.

The cavity in-between the outer vehicle wall
and refrigerator is completely isolated from the
vehicle interior. Intrusion of exhaust fumes into
the living space is prevented. Fumes will esca-
pe through the upper ventilation grille to the
outside.
The draught-proof installation does not requi-
re a special exhaust gas duct to be used. This
installation method allows the use of the same
air vent grille LS200 at the top and at the bot-
tom without flue duct.
If a flue duct is nevertheless desirable, incor-
porate the LS100 ventilation system with flue
duct into the upper air vent opening. ( For
installation, please refer to "4.4" )

4.2 Ventilation and air extracti-
on of the refrigerator
A correct installation of the refrigerator is
essential for its correct operation, as due to
physical reasons heat builds up at the back of
the appliance which must be allowed to esca-
pe into the open air.
i
In the event of high ambient temperatures,
full performance of the cooling unit can
only be achieved by means of adequate
ventilation and extraction.
Ventilation is provided for the unit by means of
two apertures in the caravan wall. Fresh air
enters at the bottom, extracts the heat and
exits through the upper vent grille (chimney
effect).
The upper ventilation grille should be posi-
tioned as high as possible above the con-
denser (1, , Fig.16). Install the lower ventila-
tion grille at floor level of the recess (Fig.
16,17), allowing unburnt gas (heavier than air)
to escape directly into the open air.
