Intended useFreshJet
6Intended use
The Dometic FreshJet roof air conditioner is designed for use in motorcaravans,
caravans and other vehicles with habitation compartments only. It is not suitable for
houses and apartments.
The roof air conditioner is not suitable for installation in construction machines, agricultural machines or similar equipment. It will not work properly if exposed to strong
vibrations.
The function of the roof air conditioner is guaranteed for temperatures between 0 °C
and 52 °C.
7Technical description
The roof air conditioner supplies the interior with cool dehumidified air without dust
and dirt.
Dimmable LED lamps integrated in the air outlet unit provide pleasant lighting (LED
lights are available only on specific model).
The roof air conditioner is operated with the remote control.
NOTE
I
The roof air conditioner is protected against over-voltage. When the supply voltage
is above 265 V, the roof air conditioner stops working. It resumes normal service
when the supply voltage is within the allowed range.
The roof air conditioner can lower the temperature within the vehicle to
a certain level. The temperature depends on the type of vehicle, the
ambient temperature and the cooling capacity of your roof air
conditioner.
Below an outer temperature of 16 °C the roof air conditioner doesn’t
cool anymore. In this case only use the air conditioning mode
“Circulating air” ().

7.1C o m p o n en t s
The refrigerant circuit of the roof air conditioner consists of the following main
components (fig. 1, page 3):
•Compressor (1)
The compressor draws in the refrigerant used and compresses it. This raises the
pressure and therefore the temperature of the refrigerant.
•Condenser (2)
The built-in liquefier works like a cooler or heat exchanger. The air flowing past
absorbs the heat and the hot refrigerant gas cools down and becomes liquid.
•Evaporator (3)
The evaporators cool down and dehumidify the air flowing past them. The
refrigerant absorbs the heat and vaporises.
•Blower (4)
A blower distributes the cooled air within the vehicle through an air outlet unit.
