USER INSTRUCTIONS
5.1 Foreword
The Manufacturer shall not be
held liable for any damage due to the air condi-
tioner not working.
The air conditioner consists of a compressor run-
ning at 230 VAC 50 Hz. The compressor com-
presses the coolant gas inside a coil pipe which,
when ventilated, gives off the heat developed dur-
ing compression. The coolant gas is then conveyed
into a condenser where it can expand and thus
absorb heat from the air going through the con-
denser.
The cooled air is spread through the inside of the
vehicle by a fan which works at an adjustable speed.
A thermostat adjusts the air temperature.
ICEBERG can provide cold air in summer and hot
air in winter.
When your vehicle has been exposed for a long
time to sunlight, it is good practice, before starting
up the air conditioner, to open the doors and win-
dows in order to let out the heat which has built up
inside.
When the indoor temperature becomes the same
as the outdoor temperature, close all the doors
and windows again and start up the air conditioner.
Do not open doors or windows wen the conditioner
is running except in case of need.
To obtain better performance, we suggest you aim
one of the outlets towards the door so that hot air
does not come in when you open it.
5.2 Preliminary checks
Before turning the air conditioner on, you must per-
form a few simple operations.
Make sure that the condensate drainage system
is not clogged [Fig. 13 ref. 5].
Make sure that the power supply voltage and fre-
quency are those listed in the previous paragraph.
Make sure that nothing is preventing the air from
circulating freely inside the ventilation conduits and
outlets. The outside ventilation grids must always
be free for the air conditioner to be truly efficient.

5.3 Air diffusion outlets
The diffuser panel [Fig. 1 ref. 4] houses five cooled
or heated air diffusion outlets [Fig. 1 ref. 5].
Each outlet is provided with two mobile baffle plates
which allow you to choke and direct the air jet [Fig.
14]. Press on the baffle plates to choke the air jet
until you close it completely off. Turn the baffle
plates to point the air jet in any direction.
5.4 Control panel (Fig. 15)
Fan speed selector switch [Fig. 15 ref. 1].
Ventilation / cooling selector switch with thermo-
stat [Fig. 15 ref. 2].
Cold/hot air selector switch [Fig. 15 ref. 3].
ON/OFF switch [Fig. 15 ref. 4].
5.5 Turning on
with an environmental thermostat, with a
minimum working temperature of 18°C (+/-1°C).
Below this temperature, the thermostat does not
enable operation of the compressor. This
prevents the risk of ice developing inside the
air conditioner. The fans and heating function
are still enabled.
To turn the air conditioner on, set the ON/OFF
switch [Fig. 15 ref. 4] to the ON position. Position
the cold/hot air selector switch [Fig. 15 ref. 3] on
the symbols
mostat [Fig. 15 ref. 2] clockwise, positioning it on
the temperature value you want.
The thermostat keeps the temperature you have
chosen constant, and does so automatically, turn-
ing the air conditioner compressor on and off.
The temperature scale is marked by a series of dots
of different sizes.
The air conditioner is provided
and then turn the ther-
