In this case, for gas operation, do not use the upper winter cover!

If even with draught-free installation a fume chimney is desirable, you must incorporte

the L100 ventilation and extraction system into the upper air vent opening.

Installation of fume chimney: please refer to point 6.7.

Ventilation and extraction

A correct installation is important for correct operation of the appliance to ensure, there

is no a build-up of heat at the back of the appliance; this heat must be allowed to escape

into the open air.

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

grille.

The upper ventilation grille should be positioned as high as possible above

condenser (A).

The lower ventilation grating should be flush with the floor of the vehicle, allowing any

gas leakages (heavier than air) to escape directly into the open air.

If such an arrangement is not possible a hole must be provided under the refrigerator

(not close to the burner) so that any leaking LP gas can escape. This must have an

effictive area of at least 13cm². It is desirable to fit the hole with wire mesh or similar,

and an angle plate to protect it from stones, mud etc., the wire mesh must not reduce

the effective area of 13cm²

The ventilation gratings must have a free cross-sectional area of at least

250 cm

Dometic recommends using the L100/L200 ventilation and extraction system.

Comment:

If the distance between the wall and the refrigerator is greater than 20 mm the gap can

be reduced to 20 mm by fitting a suitable baffle piece.
