5.1 Ventilation and De-aerating
Rules for forced ventilation
Proper ventilation and de-aerating of the vehi-
cle is a prerequisite for ideal living comfort. A
draft-free forced-ventilation system is located
in the oor
j
and a forced de-aerating system
is located in the ceiling
k
which should not be
interfered with.
Cooking, wet clothing, etc., produ-
ces vapor. Every person loses up to
35 g of water per hour. Therefore,
depending on the relative humidi-
ty, please ventilate and de-aerate
through the windows and roof bon-
nets (see also "Winter operation").
We recommend that you open the
roof bonnets whenever you live in the
caravan.
Under no circumstances may the
safety ventilation be shut, not even
slightly.
Refrigerator
The ventilation bars provide the refrigerator with
fresh air from outside to ensure sufcient cooling
performance. The ventilation bar
j
is located at
the bottom of the exterior vehicle wall. The de-ae-
ration bar
k
is located above the ventilation bar.
In the Premium model, the refrigerator is de-
aerated by means of a ue
l
