GENERAL INFORMATION

  1. Product features or specifications as described or il-lustrated are subject to change without notice.
  2. This air conditioner/heat pump (hereinafter referred to as the "unit")  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. Roof construction with rafters/joists on minimum of 16 inch centers.
    4. Minimum of 1.00 inch and maximum of 5.5 inches distance between roof to ceiling of recreational vehicle.
  3. The ability of the air conditioner to maintain the de-sired 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 ve-hicle 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
      Operation on High Fan/Cooling mode will give opti-mum or maximum efficiency in high humidity or high outside temperature.
      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 a high heat gain, ac-cessories like Dometic outdoor patio and window awnings will reduce heat gain by removing the direct exposure to the sun. They also add a nice area to enjoy company dur-ing the cool of the evening.
  4. Condensation
    Note: The manufacturer of this unit 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, win-dows, metal parts, etc. During normal operation this unit removes moisture from the air. Keeping doors and win-dows closed when this air conditioner is in operation will minimize condensed moisture on cold surfaces.

System Configuration, Reset & Check Out 

(CCC and CCC 2 Thermostat Only)

Now that the system is installed, it is necessary to do a system configuration, reset and check out.

  1. Electronic Control Configuration
    Depending on the equipment options installed by the recreational vehicle manufacturer, the appropriate dip switches will need to be switched to the "ON" position. Placing the switch in the "ON" position selects that option. See FIGS. 21, 22 & 23.
    Note: Dip switches are in the "OFF" position when shipped from the factory except on heat strip and (heat pump CCC 2 only) models. On these models the appropriate dip switch, heat strip or (heat pump CCC 2 only), is in the "ON" position from the factory. To gain access to the dip switches, the outside plastic shroud must be removed from the unit.  Next remove the electrical box cover. The electrical box will be on the curb side of the RV after installation. See FIGS. 21, 22 & 23.

Setup Guide

Setting up the Dometic Roof Top Unit Air Conditioner 641415.30X involves several steps:

  1. Preparation: Ensure the roof of your RV is clear of any obstructions and compatible with the air conditioner's dimensions.
  2. Installation: Follow the manufacturer's guidelines to securely mount the unit onto the roof. This may require professional assistance.
  3. Electrical Connection: Connect the unit to a 120V AC power source, ensuring all connections are secure and meet safety standards.
  4. Configuration: Use the digital thermostat or remote control to configure the desired temperature settings.
  5. Testing: Turn on the air conditioner and check for proper functioning, ensuring all vents are clear and the system is cooling efficiently.

MAINTENANCE

  1. Air Filters
    1. Periodically (a minimum of every 2 weeks of op-eration) slide out the return air filters located on the end of the air distribution box. Wash the filters with soap and warm water, let dry and then rein-stall.
      Note: To insure easy future removal the filters need to be replaced with the domed side of their handle positioned towards the ceiling.
      Note: Never run the unit without both return air filters in place. This will plug the unit evaporator coil with dirt and may substantially degrade the performance of the unit over time.
  2. Air Distribution Box Housing
    1. Clean air distribution box housing with a soft cloth dampened with a mild detergent. Never use furni-ture polish or scouring powders.
  3. Fan Motor
    1. The blower motor is factory lubricated and re-quires no service.
  4. 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 out-put at very low air speed and the icing can be seen through the hole network with the filters re-moved. If this should occur, inspect the filter 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 ther-mostat 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 cen-ter for assistance.

SERVICE-UNIT DOES NOT OPERATE

If your unit fails to operate or operates improperly, check the following before calling your service center.

  1. If RV connected to motor generator, check to be sure motor generator is running and producing power.
  2. If RV connected to power supply by a land line, check to be sure line is sized properly to run unit load and it is plugged into power supply.
  3. Check your fuse or circuit breaker to see if it is open. Insure fuse is not burnt, or circuit breaker is "ON" and not activated.
  4. After the above checks, call your local service center for further help. This unit must be serviced by quali-fied service personnel only.
  5. When calling for service, always give the following:
    1. Unit model and serial number found on identification label located on base pan of unit bottom. (Remove filter and view through network of holes)
    2. Air distribution box model and serial number found on rating plate located on ceiling template. Observe this rating plate through the air distribution box right side vent opening.
