The device is suitable for installation in:
• caravans
• motor homes
5.1 Preparing the installation
A
When installing the refrigerator, note the following:
• To enable the refrigerant to circulate properly, the refrigerator may not exceed an
angle of 3°.
Park the vehicle horizontally for this purpose.
• The refrigerator must be installed so that
– it is easily accessible for service work
– easy to de-install and install
– can be easily removed from the vehicle
• The refrigerator must be installed in a recess so that it stands firm when the vehicle
is in motion. Note the dimensions in fig. 1, page 3 for this purpose.
• The outer wall must be fitted with an air inlet vent (fig. 21, page 3) and an outlet
vent (fig. 22, page 3) with ventilation grills so that the heat generated can be
easily released to the outside:
– Air inlet vent: Fit ventilation grill as flush as possible with the base of the instal-
lation niche.
– Outlet vent: fit as far above the refrigerator as possible.
– The distance between the air inlet and outlet vents must be at least 1050 mm
(fig. 3, page 4).
• Fit a heat conduction plate (fig. 31, page 4) above the refrigerator so that the
heat does not accumulate in the vehicle.
• The distance between the refrigerator and the rear wall must be at least 15 mm
but no more than 25 mm.
You find the instructions for changing the door stop and the decorative
plate online at:
documents.dometic.com/?object_id=63258
NOTICE!
• The refrigerator may not be installed in the rear of mobile homes with
the door pointing in the direction of travel.
• Use exclusively original Dometic ventilation grills to ensure safe
operation.

Installing the refrigerator RML10.4, RML10.4S, RML10.4T
16
• A distance of more than 25 mm between the refrigerator and rear wall leads to
poor performance and increases the power consumption of the refrigerator.
Reduce the space behind the refrigerator to create adequate air inlet and outlet
ventilation (fig. 4, page 4). Use a ventilation plate, for example, to do this.
• If the minimum distance between the air inlet and outlet vents cannot be met, a
roof vent must be installed instead of the air outlet vent.
– The roof vent should be installed directly above the back of the refrigerator as
far as this is possible. Use an air duct (fig. 51, page 5) if you need to install
the roof vent offset; otherwise, heat will accumulate there.
– The distance between the air inlet vent and the roof vent must be at least
1350 mm (fig. 5, page 5).
– If a roof air conditioner is provided, the distance between the roof vent
(fig. 61, page 5) and the air outlet of the roof air conditioner (fig. 62,
page 5) must be at least 300 mm.
• The refrigerator must not be installed at the side of the air inlet and outlet vents as
this leads to poor performance and increases the power consumption of the
refrigerator.
• The air inlet and outlet vents must not be covered by vehicle parts (such as an
open door or by installing accessories such as bicycle racks) while operating.
• Install the refrigerator so that it is protected from excessive heat, as this leads to
poor performance and increases the power consumption of the refrigerator.
• The refrigerator must be installed in a draft-proof location.
5.2 Installing the refrigerator in a draft-proof location
!
Gas-powered refrigerators in camper vans or mobile homes must be installed in a
draft-free location. This means that the combustion air is not extracted from the inte-
rior and the exhaust fumes are prevented from directly entering the living space.
A suitable seal must be fitted between the rear panel of the refrigerator and the inte-
rior of the vehicle.
WARNING! Fire hazard!
• Do not use flammable materials such as silicone sealants, foam or
similar for the draft-proof installation.
• Position the device so that no connection cable is damaged or
pinched.
• Do not use multiple sockets or portable power adapters behind the
device.

The manufacturer recommends using a flexible seal to ease removal and installation
for maintenance purposes.
Select one of the three versions for draft-proof installation (fig. 7, page 6):
Stop bar behind the fridge (A)
➤Glue a flexible sealing lip (1) to a stop bar (2) behind the refrigerator (3).
➤Push the refrigerator-oven combination against the stop bar with the flexible seal-
ing lips.
✔The space behind the refrigerator is sealed to the interior of the vehicle.
Side gap distance of up to 5 mm between refrigerator and furniture (B)
➤Glue the sealing lips (see chapter “Accessories” on page 13) on the side of the
furniture (4).
➤Push the refrigerator-oven combination against the flexible sealing lips on furni-
ture.
✔The space behind the refrigerator is sealed to the interior of the vehicle.
Side gap distance of 5 mm to 10 mm between refrigerator and
furniture (C)
➤Glue the double lipped sealing (see chapter “Accessories” on page 13) on the
side of the furniture (4).
➤Push the refrigerator-oven combination against the double lipped sealing on fur-
niture.
✔The space behind the refrigerator is sealed to the interior of the vehicle.

5.3 Making air inlet and outlet vents
I
➤Make an air inlet vent and an air outlet vent in the outer wall with the size of
–LS230: 315 mm x 373 mm
–LS330:249mmx410mm
When doing so, observe the information, see chapter “Preparing the installa-
tion” on page 15.
If the ventilation grill of the air inlet vent cannot be installed flush with the floor of the
niche, install an inlet vent in the floor. Any leaking gas can thus flow downwards.
➤Make an air inlet vent of at least Ø 40 mm in the floor (fig. 81, page 7) behind
the refrigerator near the gas burner.
➤Shield the outside of the opening with a deflector to prevent sludge or dirt from
getting inside while driving (fig. 82, page 7).
If you have to use a roof vent instead of the air outlet vent:
➤Cut out a section in the roof. Refer to the roof vent instruction manual for the
required dimensions.
When doing so, observe the information in chapter “Preparing the installation”
on page 15.
5.4 Installing the ventilation grill
I
NOTE
• Deviations from the inlet and outlet variations shown here must be
approved by the manufacturer.
• At high ambient temperatures, the refrigerator can only provide its
maximum cooling capacity if the optimum ventilation has been pro-
vided.
