A. Controls

  1. The selector switch has ten positions including “OFF”. It controls the fan speeds, cooling modes, and heating modes of operation. See (FIG. 21).
  2. The thermostat controls the compressor ON/ OFF operation within a temperature range of approximately 65° F and 90° F measured at the ADB inlet.

B. “OFF” Position

1. This is to turn the unit off.

C. Cooling Operation (Blue Graphic)

  1. Turn the selector switch to cooling (blue graphic).
  2. Set the thermostat at the desired temperature level.
  3. Select the fan speed that best satisfies your needs:
    • a.HIGH COOL: Selected when maximum cooling and dehumidification are required.
    • b.MEDIUM COOL: Selected when normal or average cooling is required.
    • c. LOW COOL: Selected when room is at desired comfort level and needs to be maintained. Normally this speed used for nighttime operation.
    • The compressor will cycle on and off as cooling is required to maintain the selected temperature level. The fan runs when the compressor is off to help keep the temperature uniform throughout the boat.

Note: Wait at least 2 minutes before restarting the compressor when it has been manually cycled off with either the selector switch or the temperature set lever. Otherwise, the compressor will quick-cycle and could result in compressor or supply circuit over-load.

D. Heating Operation (Red Graphic) With Electric Heater Option Installed

  1. The heating mode of operation will NOT re-place a furnace for heating your boat in cold weather. The intent is to remove the chill on cool days or mornings.
  2. Set the thermostat to the desired temperature level.
  3. Turn the selector switch to heating (red graphic). There are three positions to select from (high, medium and low. See (FIG. 21). The blower will come on immediately. The heat function will start if the thermostat is not satisfied.

E. Fan Operation (Black Graphic)

  1. This will circulate the air in your boat without cooling or heating. Turn the selector switch to fan (black graphic). There are three positions to select from (high, medium and low). See (FIG. 21).

F. Center Air Discharge

  1. Slide lever to open and close. See (FIG. 22).

MAINTENANCE

A. Air Filter

  1. Periodically (a minimum of every 2 weeks of op-eration) remove the return air filter located be-hind the return air vent grille and wash it with soap and warm water, let dry and then reinstall. NEVER run unit without return air filter in place. This will plug the unit evapora-tor coil with dirt and may substantially degrade the performance of the unit over time.

B. ADB Housing

  1. Clean ADB housing and control panel with a soft cloth dampened with a mild detergent. Never use furniture polish or scouring powders.

C. Fan Motor

  1. The blower motor is factory-lubricated and requires no service.

GENERAL INFORMATION

A. 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 output at very low air speed and the icing can be seen through the air inlet hole with the filter removed. 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 thermostat control knob to a warmer setting (counterclockwise). Should frosting continues, operate on any FAN ONLY setting until the cooling coil is free of frost; then resume normal operation. If frost conditions persist, contact your local service center for assistance.

B. Heat Gain

The ability of this air conditioner to maintain the desired inside temperature depends on the heat gain of the boat. Some preventative measures taken by the occupants of the boat can reduce the heat gain and improve the performance of the air conditioner. During extremely high outdoor temperatures, the heat gain of the boat may be reduced by:

  1. Mooring the boat 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
  5. Add heat-rejection film on windows

Operation on High Fan/Cooling mode will give optimum or maximum efficiency in high humidity or high outside temperatures. 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.

C. Condensation

The manufacturer of this unit will not be responsible for damage caused by condensation forming on ceilings, windows, or other surfaces. Air contains water vapor which condenses when temperature of a surface is below Dew point. During normal operation this unit is designed to remove a certain amount of moisture from the air, depending on the size of the space being conditioned. Keeping doors and windows closed when this air conditioner is in operation will greatly reduce the chance of condensation forming on interior surfaces.

SERVICE – UNIT DOES NOT OPERATE

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

  • 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.
  • After the above checks, call your local service center for further help. This unit must be serviced by qualified service personnel only.
  • If any wiring or supply cord is damaged and needs to be replaced, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a simi-larly qualified person.

To locate a service technician near you:

When calling for service, always give the following:

  • Unit type and serial number found on the iden-tification label located on base pan of unit bot-tom. Return air grille must be removed from ADB.
  • ADB model and serial number found on rating plate located on ceiling template. Observe this rating plate through the filter opening.

C. COVERAGE PERIOD

What is the period of coverage?

(See Limited Warranty Periods at the end of this book).
All Dometic components bear a data plate on which there are model and serial numbers. The serial number is date coded. To determine whether or not any Dometic component is in warranty, proceed as follows:
1. Determine the manufacture date of the component from the serial number on the data plate. If you are not familiar with the date code, write or call the Dometic Customer Service Department to obtain the manufacture date. The hours of the Cus-tomer Service Department are 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. (USA, Eastern Standard Time Zone) Monday through Friday excluding holidays.
2. It is possible that there might exist a considerable time lag between the date a component is manufactured and the date it is put in service. In such instances, the date of manufacture could indicate that the item is out of warranty. However, based on the date the equipment is first put in service, the item may still be covered by the Dometic warranty as described in Section A. For proof of date put in service, Dometic will require a copy of the bill of sale of the Dometic equipment from the installer or new boat dealer to the original owner.

D. GETTING SERVICE

How do you get service?

Please read the following Warranty Procedure:

If the failure of a Dometic component is determined to be covered under the Dometic warranty and the time in service is determined to be within the warranty time limit, the owner has the following three options:

  1. Preferred option: Have a Dometic authorized Servicing Dealer, perform the work needed. The customer needs to call Dometic Customer Service Department for a recommendation as to the closest dealer. If the customer already knows an authorized servicing dealer, the dealer should be contacted directly.
  2. Second option: If the customer contacts Dometic Service Department for a Servicing Dealer and Dometic has no one in that particular area, Dometic will authorize the use of a local service company and Dometic will work with the local company to assist in any way possible.
  3. Third option: The customer may send his equipment back to the factory to have the repair work done. Dometic will make every effort to return the equipment to the customer within a three week time period. If the claim represents a legitimate warranty problem, Dometic will pay the freight both ways. Dometic prefers option one first, option two second, and option three only if one and two are not available.

The customer may contact the Dometic Service Department at 954-973-2477 Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. East-ern Time. After hours (evening and weekends) technical support is offered through Dometic’s 24/7 Hotline at 888-440-4494.
