5.1 Ventilation
The following applies for ventilation:
Ventilation is important if you want to feel comfortable in your
van. No-draught ventilation has been integrated above the driving
unit in your van. The roof lights ensure ventilation. Never interfere
with the way in which they operate.
Ventilation and de-aerating of the van is a prerequisite for suf-
cient cooling capacity. When the refrigerator is not being run,
the ventilation grills can be closed using the appropriate covers.
Note the information given on the covers. They may only
be used when the refrigerator is operated electrically in
winter. For more information, please refer to the refrigerator
manufacturer‘s operating instructions.
Watery vapour is produced while cooking, from wet clothes,
etc. Every person transpires up to 35 g of water per hour.
Therefore, depending on the relative humidity, the windows
and skylight s must be opened for further ventilation (see
also “Operating in Winter“).
Never cover the safety ventilation, not even partially.
Refrigerator
Grates supply the refrigerator with fresh air from outside to
ensure sucient refrigerating capacity. The grate for fresh air
intake
j
is on the outside wall of the vehicle. The ventilation
grill
k
is located above the air vents.
Apply special covers when operating the van in winter.
These covers can be purchased from your dealer.
Danger! You can suocate if the ventilation openings are
blocked! Never block ventilation openings.
