"OFF". This controls fan speeds, cooling modes
and optional heating modes of operation. See
(FIG. 21).
FIG. 21
Black
Graphic Fan
Blue Graphic
Cooling
2. The thermostat controls the compressor On/
OFF operation within a temperature range of
approximately 65° F and 90° F measured at the
ADB inlet.
B. "OFF" Position ( )
1. This is to turn unit off.
C. Cooling Operation (Blue Graphic)
Colder
Wait at least 2 minutes before
restarting the compressor when it has been
manually cycled off with either the selector
switch or the temperature set lever. Otherwise, compressor will quick-cycle and could
result in compressor or supply circuit overload.
D. Heating Operation (With Electric Heater
Option Installed).
The heat mode of operation will NOT replace
a furnace for heating your boat in cold weather. The intent is to remove the chill on cool
days or mornings.
1. Turn the selector switch to "OPT HEAT".
2. The heat strip will come on and begin heating.
3. When desired temperature level in boat is
reached, move the selector switch to "OFF" position or "FAN" position.
Thermostat does NOT control the fan/heater
ON/OFF cycle.
E. Fan Operation (Black Graphic)
This will circulate the air in your boat without
cooling or heating.
1. Turn the selector switch to fan (black graphic).
There are three positions to select from (high,
medium and low). See (FIG. 21).
1. Turn selector switch to cooling (blue graphic).
2. Set the thermostat at the desired temperature
level.
3. Select the fan speed that best satises your
needs:
a. HIGH COOL: Selected when maximum cool-
ing and dehumidication required.
b. MEDIUM COOL: Selected when normal or
average cooling required.
c. LOW COOL: Selected when room is at de-
sired comfort level and needs to be maintained. Normally this speed used for night
time operation.
The compressor will cycle on and off as
cooling is required to maintain the selected temperature level. The fan runs when
the compressor is off to help keep the
temperature uniform throughout the boat.
F. Center Air Discharge
1. Slide lever to open and close. See (FIG. 22).
FIG. 22
Slide To Open
Or Close
11
MAINTENANCE
A. Air Filter
1. Periodically (a minimum of every 2 weeks of operation) remove the return air lter located behind the return air vent grille and wash it with
soap and warm water, let dry and then reinstall.
NEVER run unit without return air lter
in place. This will plug the unit evaporator coil with dirt and may substantially
degrade the performance of the unit over
time.
GENERAL INFORMATION
A. Frost Formation On Cooling Coil
1. Frost on a small portion of the coil is not unusual.
Under certain conditions, ice may form on the
evaporator coil. This is indicated by very cold output at very low air speed and the icing can be
seen through the air inlet hole with the lter removed. If this should occur, inspect the lter and
clean if dirty. Make sure air vents are open and
not obstructed. Units have a greater tendency to
frost when the outside temperature is relatively
low. This may be prevented by adjusting the thermostat control knob to a warmer setting (counter clockwise). Should frosting continue, operate
on any FAN ONLY setting until the cooling coil
is free of frost; then resume normal operation. If
frost condition persist, contact your local service
center for assistance.
B. Heat Gain
The ability of this air conditioner to maintain the desired
inside temperature depends on the heat gain of the boat.
B. ADB Housing
1. Clean ADB housing and control panel with a soft
cloth dampened with a mild detergent. Never
use furniture polish or scouring powders.
C. Fan Motor
1. The blower motor is factory lubricated and requires no service.
Operation on High Fan/Cooling mode will give optimum
or maximum efciency in high humidity or high outside
temperatures.
Starting the air conditioner early in the morning and giving
it a “head start” on the expected high outdoor ambient will
greatly improve its ability to maintain the desired indoor
temperature.
C. Condensation
The manufacturer of this unit will not be responsible for
damage caused by condensation forming on ceilings,
windows, or other surfaces. Air contains water vapor which
condenses when temperature of a surface is below Dew
point. During normal operation this unit is designed to
remove a certain amount of moisture from the air, depending on the size of the space being conditioned. Keeping
doors and windows closed when this air conditioner is in
operation will greatly reduce the chance of condensation
forming on interior surfaces.
Some preventative measures taken by the occupants of the
boat can reduce the heat gain and improve the performance
of the air conditioner. During extremely high outdoor temperatures, the heat gain of the vehicle may be reduced by:
1. Mooring the boat in a shaded area
2. Using window shades (blinds and/or curtains)
3. Keeping windows and doors shut or minimizing
usage
4. Avoiding the use of heat producing appliances
5. Add heat-rejection lm on windows
12

Installation and application of Dometic components is not warranted by Dometic, because Dometic has no control or
authority over the selection, location, application, or installation of these components.
C. COVERAGE PERIOD
What is the period of coverage?
(See Limited Warranty Periods at the end of this book).
All Dometic components bear a data plate on which there are model and serial numbers. The serial number is date coded. To
determine whether or not any Dometic component is in warranty, proceed as follows:
1. Determine the manufacture date of the component from the serial number on the data plate. If you are not familiar with the
date code, write or call the Dometic Customer Service Department to obtain the manufacture date. The hours of the Customer Service Department are 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. (USA, Eastern Standard Time Zone) Monday through Friday excluding
holidays.
2. It is possible that there might exist a considerable time lag between the date a component is manufactured and the date it
is put in service. In such instances, the date of manufacture could indicate that the item is out of warranty. However, based
on the date the equipment is rst put in service, the item may still be covered by the Dometic warranty as described in
Section A. For proof of date put in service, Dometic will require a copy of the bill of sale of the Dometic equipment from the
installer or new boat dealer to the original owner.
D. GETTING SERVICE
How do you get service?
Please read the following Warranty Procedure:
If the failure of a Dometic component is determined to be covered under the Dometic warranty and the time in service is determined
to be within the warranty time limit, the owner has the following three options:
1. Preferred option: Have a Dometic authorized Servicing Dealer, perform the work needed. The customer needs to call
Dometic Customer Service Department for a recommendation as to the closest dealer. If the customer already knows an
authorized servicing dealer, the dealer should be contacted directly.
2. Second option: If the customer contacts Dometic Service Department for a Servicing Dealer and Dometic has no one in that
particular area, Dometic will authorize the use of a local service company and Dometic will work with the local company to
assist in any way possible.
3. Third option: The customer may send his equipment back to the factory to have the repair work done. Dometic will make
every effort to return the equipment to the customer within a three week time period. If the claim represents a legitimate
warranty problem, Dometic will pay the freight both ways. Dometic prefers option one rst, option two second, and option
three only if one and two are not available.
The customer may contact the Dometic Service Department at 954-973-2477 Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. After hours (evening and weekends) technical support is offered through Dometic's 24/7 Hotline at 888-440-4494.
