Electrical connection
SHORT CIRCUIT AND DANGER OF FIRE
Always disconnect the batteries before
working on the electrical system.
CAUTION
The connection line for an electric roof hatch
installed at the factory may not be used for the
power supply of the parking cooler, as the line
cross-section is not sufficient for this purpose.
Use the power supply cable provided.
If the power supply cable provided must be
extended, use cables with a sufficient line
cross-section.
Do not route the power supply cable near
signal lines or control lines.
Route the power supply cable so that no
tensile loading is exerted on it during
operation. Use strain-relief clamps if
necessary.
Do not kink the power supply cable or route it
over sharp edges. Use plastic grommets or a
protective pipe if necessary.
The power supply cable of the parking cooler runs from the
fuse box in the passenger footwell to the front of the
parking cooler.
1. Disconnect batteries.
2. Remove the interior trim of the roof hatch.
3. Route the power supply cable from the fuse box
in the passenger footwell to the front of the
parking cooler and connect.
4. Connect the power supply cable to the parking
cooler and the fuse box.
CAUTION
The connection of the parking cooler to the
vehicle power supply must be carried out with
a sufficiently dimensioned fuse (see DIN
72581).

3.3
Mechanical installation
ACCIDENT DANGER
When working on the vehicle roof there is a
danger of accidents occurring from persons
falling or from falling objects. Ensure secure
holding of persons and raised loads during
installation. Use only suitable lifting devices
during installation. A travelling crane is best
suited for this purpose.
ENVIRONMENTAL NOTE
Dispose of all waste resulting during
installation in an environmentally friendly
manner.
The parking cooler is mounted in place of an existing roof
hatch.
Before installing the parking cooler, it must be checked
whether the parking cooler can be operated together with
a roof spoiler which may be present. If modifications are
required, it must be noted that the vehicle homologation
may be voided by removing, installing a new or modifying
an existing roof spoiler. This requires an approval by a
recognised test organisation. Contact the vehicle
manufacturer, the manufacturer of the roof spoiler or a
recognised test organisation for more detailed information
on this subject. The parking cooler cannot be modified.
1. Remove the existing roof hatch together with all
fastening parts and sealing materials.
2. Clean and degrease the sealing surface.
3. Glue on the EPDM gasket around the rear roof
hatch cut-out in the centre beginning outside.
4. Cut off the start and end of the EPDM gasket
with an angled cut so that the largest common
cross-sectional area results.
5. Glue the cross-sectional areas of the EPDM
gasket with windows sealant (butyl sealant).
6. Remove the protective film from the hood
surface of the parking cooler.
7. Lift the parking cooler onto the roof of the
driver's cab with a suitable lifting device.
8. Align the parking cooler centred to the right and
left side and carefully place it on the roof hatch
opening.
In case of any existing roof extension (e.g. aerial),
position the parking cooler so that it is a
sufficient distance from the roof extensions.
8.1. For Scania: Move parking cooler 25 mm to
left seen in driving direction.
9. Check whether the screw bolts are firmly
screwed into the parking cooler.
