4 Operation

4.1 General

The Cool Top RTE 16 consists of 2 main parts:

ŶThe evaporator, installed inside the cabin.

ŶThe condenser, installed outside.

The Cool Top RTE 16 works when the engine is switched off. The

Cool Top RTE 16 is extremely quiet. It can be easily installed on

any type of vehicle without alterations.

The system utilizes the refrigerant R134a.

Operation can be controlled:

ŶDirectly by the control panel

ŶRemotely by means of the remote controller.

4.2 Operation

The remote controller operates the main functions. Changes to

the standard settings may be done only by means of the local

control panel.

Description

ON-OFF

Press the “ON-OFF” button to switch the

Cool Top RTE 16 ON or OFF.

When on, the display always shows the last set

temperature.

MODE

Pushing the “MODE” button you cycle through

the modes MIN, AUTO and MAX. The corre-

sponding icon lights up.

MIN

This corresponds the lowest power setting of

the Cool Top RTE 16 (lowest performance and

lowest compressor speed – the timer is set for a

continued function of 6 hours, after which the

Cool Top RTE 16 goes off automatically). You

can modify the timer with the P0 parameter -

see chapter 4.3.

Description

AUTO

The management is automatic (performance

and compressor speed are managed automati-

cally based on the temperature required by the

user and on the current temperature - the timer

is set for a continued function of 4 hours, after

which the Cool Top RTE 16 goes off automati-

cally). You can modify the timer with the P1 pa-

rameter - see chapter 4.3

MAX

This corresponds to the highest power setting

of the Cool Top RTE 16 (highest performance

and highest compressor and ventilator speed),

after 20 minutes the Cool Top RTE 16 goes to

the “AUTO” mode. You can modify the timer

with the P2 parameter - see chapter 4.3

If you press the MODE button when the

Cool Top RTE 16 is off, you will activate the DE-

LAYED ACTIVATION mode and the relative icon

lights up. The Cool Top RTE 16 switches itself

on automatically after a certain number of

hours have elapsed, shown on the display. You

can set the number of hours between 1 and 99

by using the TEMPERATURE (+ / -) buttons.

VENTILATION

Each push on the (+ / -) buttons corresponds to

the increase or decrease of the ventilation

speed: you can choose between 6 different lev-

els of ventilation. The display shows the selected

level.

If you press a ventilation (+ / -) button when the

Cool Top RTE 16 is off, you activate the ventila-

tion only mode.

TEMPERATURE

Each push on the (+ / -) buttons corresponds to

the increase or decrease of 1°C of temperature:

from a minimum value of 17°C to a maximum

of 32°C. The display shows the selected tem-

perature.

5 Error codes

In case of a problem, the device shuts down and the display will

show an error message from the following list.

Mes-

sage Description Troubleshooting

E0 Disconnected compressor

(A power supply cable of the

compressor has disconnected.)

Contact an authorized

Webasto dealer.

E1 Battery power

(The battery-saver has activated.

Power decreased below the set

threshold.)

Start the vehicle in or-

der to recharge the

battery.

E2 Power overload from the cool-

ing fan

(The cooling fan overloads the

board beyond the allowed limit.

Possible cause: short circuit or

something is blocking the fan

from rotating.)

Contact an authorized

Webasto dealer.

E3 Blocked compressor

(The rotor is blocked or the

pressure in the cooling circuit is

too high.)

The E3 – E4 – E5 codes

do not indicate a mal-

function, but is a nor-

mal management pro-

cedure for the

compressor by the

electronic board. Only

if the code continues

to be displayed con-

tact an authorized We-

basto dealer.

E4 Over-current on the compressor

E5 High temperature in the control

board

(If the cooling circuit is over-

loaded or if the surrounding

temperature is too high, the

control board signals this issue.)

E6 Empty circuit

(The system may have lost gas.)

Contact an authorized

Webasto dealer.

E7 Temperature probe

(If the probe has short circuited

or has become disconnected,

the device stops working.)

E9 Power overload from the con-

denser fan

(The cooling fan overloads the

board beyond the allowed limit.

Possible cause: short circuit or

something is blocking the fan

from rotating.)

6 Disposal

Dispose of packaging material as required by standing regulations,

separating them for recycling.

The system cannot be disposed off as regular waste.

Dispose the system according the local applicable rules

and regulations. Obtain information about disposal at

the city council, the responsible waste station and/or

your local Webasto sales partner.

7 Maintenance

WARNING

Sharp edges

Danger of injuries

XWhen you work near heat exchangers, be careful

not to get cut.

ATTENTION

Any repair or intervention for charging or the collec-

tion of refrigerant must be done at authorised Webas-

to workshops and by qualified personnel.

While washing the vehicle, make sure you do not di-

rect violent jets of water towards the inside of the

condenser unit from the lower part and through the

slits of the electric fan; in case cover it.

Period Action Comments

At least once a

month. Even during

winter months!

Start the unit. Avoid keeping the con-

ditioner inactive for a

long period of time.

Functioning of it guar-

antees the lubrication

of components which

would dry up if left in-

active for a too long

period.

Periodically Check the condens-

er.

If necessary, clean it

with compressed air,

being careful to not

damaging the alumini-

um rests.

Periodically Check the function-

ing of the condens-

er’s electric fan.

Periodically Check cleanliness. Insects, floss and other

material may deposit

on the winglets, reduc-

ing the efficiency of

the heat exchanger.

At the start of each

season.

Inspect every part

of the system, in-

cluding electric

components, to

make sure there are

not any abnormal

conditions.
