RECOGNIZE SAFETY INFORMATION
!
This is the safety-alert symbol. When you see this
symbol in this manual, be alert to the potential for
personal injury .
Follow recommended precautions and safe operating instructions.
UNDERSTAND SIGNAL WORDS
1.GENERAL INFORMATION
A. Product features or specifications as described or illus-
trated are subject to change without notice.
B. This air conditioner is designed for:
1. Installation on a recreational vehicle during the time
the vehicle is manufactured.
2. Mounting on the roof of a recreational vehicle.
3. Connection to an air distribution system located in
the ceiling/roof cavity of the recreational vehicle.
4. Roof construction with rafters/joists on minimum of
16 inch centers.
5. Minimum of 2.00" and maximum of 5.50" distance
between roof to ceiling of recreational vehicle. Alternate installation methods will allow for roofs more
than 5.50" thick.
C. The ability of the air conditioner to maintain the desired
inside temperature depends on the heat gain of the RV.
Some preventative measures taken by the occupants of
the RV 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. Parking the RV 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.
A signal word , WARNING OR CAUTION is used
with the safety-alert symbol. They give the level of
risk for potential injury .
WARNING
!
indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in
death or serious injury .
CAUTION
!
indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided may result in
minor or moderate injury .
CAUTION
used without the safety alert
symbol indicates, a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided may result in property
damage.
Read and follow all safety information and instructions.
Operation on High Fan/Cooling mode will give optimum or
maximum efficiency 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.
For a more permanent solution to high heat gain, accessories like A&E outdoor patio and window awnings will reduce
heat gain by removing the direct sun. They also add a nice
area to enjoy company during the cool of the evening.
D. Condensation
Note: The manufacturer of this air conditioner will not be
responsible for damage caused by condensed moisture on
ceilings or other surfaces. Air contains moisture and this
moisture tends to condense on cold surfaces. When air
enters the RV, condensed moisture may appear on the
ceiling, windows, metal parts, etc. The air conditioner removes this moisture from the air during normal operation.
Keeping doors and windows closed when this air conditioner
is in operation will minimize condensed moisture on cold
surfaces.
When sizing the generator, the tot al power usage of your recreational vehicle must be considered. Keep in mind generators lose power at high altitudes and
*For wire lengths over 24 ft. consult the National Electric Code for proper sizing.
**Dometic Corporation gives GENERAL guidelines for generator requirements. These guidelines come from experiences people have had in actual applications
***CIRCUIT PROTECTION: Time Delay Fuse or HACR Circuit Breakers Required.

2. PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
!
Improper installation may damage equipment, could endanger life, cause serious
injury and/or property damage.
A. Read Installation and Operating instructions carefully
before attempting to start your air conditioner/heat
pump installation.
B. Dometic Corporation will not be liable for any dam-
ages or injury incurred due to failure in following these
instructions.
C. Installation must comply with the National Electrical
Code and any State or Local Codes or regulations.
D. DO NOT add any devices or accessories to this air
conditioner/heat pump except those specifically
authorized by Dometic.
E. This equipment must be serviced by qualified person-
nel and some states require these people to be
licensed.
3. CHOOSING LOCATION FOR THE
AIR CONDITIONER/HEAT PUMP
This air conditioner/heat pump is specifically designed for
installation on the roof of a recreational vehicle (RV).
A. For One Unit Installation:
The air conditioner/heat pump should be mounted slightly
forward of center (front to back) and centered from side
to side.
B. For Two Unit Installations:
Install one air conditioner/heat pump one-third and one
air conditioner/heat pump two-thirds from front of RV and
centered from side to side.
It is preferred that the air conditioner/heat pump be installed
on a relatively flat and level roof section measured with the
RV parked on a level surface; however,
1.Up to an 8° slant to either side or front-to-back is
acceptable on 600 Series Air Conditioners/heat
pump.
2.Up to a 15° slant to either side or front-to-back is
acceptable on 579, 590, 591 or 595 Series Air
conditioners/heat pump.
AFTER LOCATION HAS BEEN SELECTED:
a.Check for obstructions in the area where air
conditioner/heat pump will be installed. See
FIG. 1.
b. The roof must be designed to support 130
pounds when the RV is in motion. Normally 200
pound static load design will meet this requirement.
It is the responsibility of the installer of this
air conditioner/heat pump system to ensure
structural integrity of the RV roof. Never create a low spot on the roof where water will
collect. Water standing around the air conditioner/heat pump may leak into the interior
causing damage to the product and the RV.

4. AIR DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
SIZING & DESIGN
The Installer of this air conditioner/heat pump system must design the air distribution system for their particular application. Several
requirements for this system MUST be met for the air conditioner/heat pump to operate properly. These requirements are as
follows:
A. The duct material must meet or exceed any agency or RVIA Standard that may be in existence at the time the RV is produced.
B. All discharge air ducts must be properly insulated to prevent condensation from forming on their surfaces or adjacent surfaces
during operation of the air conditioner/heat pump. This insulation must be R-7 minimum.
C. Ducts and their joints must be sealed to prevent condensation from forming on adjacent surfaces during operation of the air
conditioner/heat pump.
D. Return air openings must have 40 square inches minimum free area including the filter.
E. Return air to the air conditioner/heat pump must be filtered to prevent dirt accumulation on air conditioner/heat pump cooling
surface.
CAUTION
It is the responsibility of the installer to insure the ductwork will not collapse or bend
during and after the installation. Dometic
Corporation will not be liable for roof structural or ceiling damage due to improperly insulated, sealed or collapsed ductwork.
