25 mm! If the door/grille distance is between 25mm and 45 mm, we recommend installing a Dometic ventilation kit ( spare part no. 241 2985 - 00/0 ) to achieve an optimal cooling perfor- mance in high ambient temperatures.
6.1.2 Side installation with floor-roof ventilation It is also possible to perform ventilation of the refrigerator via an aperture in the floor and a roof ventilation (see fig. 3). A flue has to be provided between the top edge of the refrigerator and the roof ventilation which directs the hot air and the exhausts hot air straight to the air vent in the roof.
The device manufacturer's product liability and guarantee shall lapse if such materials are used. Proposal 1: Using the Installation Sealing Kit from Dometic (SP.No. 241 2559-00, available from Dometic) Insert lipped seals (A) into the installation recesses at the bottom and at each side.
13cm² ( EN 1949). The ventilation grilles must have an open cross- section of at least 250 cm². This is reached using Dometic Absorber Ventilation and Air Extraction System L100 / L 200 that has been tested and approved for this purpose.
Installing the ventilation system L 200 L 100 To install the ventilation grilles, cut two rectangles (451mm x 156mm) in the outer wall of the vehicle (for position of the cuts, see point 6.3). Item 1 does not apply for installation framess with an integrated seal.
Installation recess The refrigerator must be installed draught-free in a recess. The measurements of the recess are given in the table below. Step (A) is only required for cabinets with a step. Push the appliance far enough into the recess until the front edge of the refrigerator casing is flush with the front of the recess.
Fume extraction Fume extraction must be arranged in such a way as to provide complete extraction of all products of combustion to an area outside the living area. The flue system must slope in an upward direction in order to avoid a build-up of condensation.
6.7.2 Separate fume extraction min. 10 mm max. 20 mm Cut: 80mm high 40mm wide 1. Cut an 80mm x 40mm rectangle in the outer wall of the caravan. The position of the cut must be appropriate to the particular model of refrigerator and installation conditions.
