On installation of the appliance, the technical and administrative regulations of the
country in which the vehicle will first be used must be adhered to. Otherwise the
refrigerator must be installed as described in these instructions. In some OEM applica-
tions it may not be possible for these instructions to be followed exactly. In this case an
authorised Dometic representative may issue supplementary instruction

cylinders, as well as approval and checking for leaks must comply with
DIN EN 1949 for liquid gas units in vehicles.

Side Installation
If the appliance is installed on the same side of the vehicle as the entrance
door, it is desirable that the door does not cover the refrigerators vents.
If this cannot be avoided there must be a gap of at least 25mm between the door and
the vents.
