6 Installing the refrigerator
6.1 Preparing for installation
When installing the refrigerator, note the following:
For the coolant to circulate properly, the refrigerator may not exceed an
incline of 3°.
To check this, park the vehicle in a horizontal position and check whether
the ice tray is level in the refrigerator.
The refrigerator must be installed in such a way that it is easily accessible
for service work, can be removed and installed easily, and can be
removed from the vehicle without major effort.
The distance between the refrigerator and the back wall must total at least
15 mm.
The refrigerator must be installed in a recess to prevent it from moving
when the vehicle moves. Observe the following relevant dimensions
(hxwxd in mm):
– RM5310: 618 x 486 x 474, fig. 1, page 2
– RM5330: 821 x 486 x 474, fig. 2, page 2
– RM5380: 821 x 486 x 474, fig. 3, page 2
Provide an air inlet (fig. 4 1, page 3) and an air outlet (fig. 4 2, page 3)
with ventilation grilles in the exterior wall to allow generated heat to be dis-
sipated to the outside:
– Air inlet: The ventilation grille should be as flush as possible with the
floor of the installation recess and have a cross-section of at least
250 cm².
– Air outlet: preferably above the device It is also possible to use a
ventilation grille with integrated exhaust gas routing.
If the ventilation grille of the air inlet cannot be installed flush with the floor,
an additional air inlet (fig. 4 4, page 3) must be provided on the ground
to discharge escaping gas.
The air inlet and air outlet may not be covered by parts of the vehicle
during operation (e.g. by an open door or by attached accessories such
as bicycle racks).
If the distance between the structure door and the air outlet is
25 mm – 45 mm, install an installation kit (see chapter “Accessories” on
page 32).
There must be enough space on the back of the refrigerator to let the air
circulate around the cooling element.
