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
(h x w x d 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.
