The motorhome is equipped with a roof mounted air conditioner. This air conditioner
operates from 120 Volt AC only, either from shore power or the on-board generator.
Air conditioner functions are controlled by the comfort control panel.
You can expect to see up to 15 to 20 degree differences in temperature between the
closest A/C outlet vent and the return air inlet grill under most operating conditions.
Factors that can affect the performance of the cooling system:
•
Use window and patio awnings when outside ambient temperature is
above 95° F to help deflect the Sun load during the heat of the day. If
window awnings are not installed then use shades or blinds to deflect
the Sun.
•
Try to avoid using the cook top or oven when the ambient temperature
is over 95° F.
•
Keep windshield covered when facing the afternoon Sun when parked.
•
The number of windows within the slide outs and the number of cold
air registers to handle heat gain when facing the afternoon Sun.
•
Color of exterior paint or graphics. the darker the exterior, the
more heat will be absorbed.
Note: DO NOT USE HARSH CHEMICALS OR SOLVENTS TO CLEAN
THE FILTER.
Clean the return air filters as needed for the environment in which they operate.
The return air filters are inside the air intake vent covers located on the motorhome
ceiling. Never operate the air conditioners without the return air filters in place.
Doing so may result in the build-up of dirt on the evaporator core affecting the
performance of the air conditioner.
TO CLEAN: Remove the vent cover and filter and wash in warm soapy water. Rinse
the filter and cover thoroughly with fresh water and allow to dry. Reinstall the filter
and cover.
