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