INSTALLATION & OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS FOR

IBIS 3

AIRCONDITIONER

Model Number: 8100001

Serial Number: .

Date Purchased: .

WARNING

It is important that this installation manual is properly read and understood before

installation. The unit must be installed by a qualified tradesperson. Failure to properly

install the unit or attempting to modify it in any way can be extremely hazardous and

may result in property damage and personal injury.

Aircommand will not be held responsible for problems relating to incorrect

or improper installation methods.

Ibis 3 Owners Guide Revision V6 Page 4 of 19

GENERAL UNIT INFORMATION

I. PURPOSE

The Aircommand Ibis 3 air conditioning unit was designed for installation on the roof of a caravan or recreational vehicle to

provide reverse cycle heating and cooling. The unit is intended for vehicles with roofs that are from 25 to 85mm thick. The unit

must be installed so that it is within ±5° of the horizontal plane. It is important that the unit is installed properly according to the

recommended guidelines.

II. ENSURING EFFECTIVE OPERATION

The effectiveness of the air conditioner is dependent on several factors that contribute to the total heat load on the van. When

an Aircommand unit is installed in a van or motorhome Aircommand assumes that the vehicle manufacturer or owner has

properly assessed the potential heat load or sought expert advice and selected the appropriate capacity air conditioning unit.

Roof hatches will significantly increase the heat load into the caravan. Where possible avoid installing roof hatches or only install

hatches that can be effectively insulated. The increase in heat load far outweighs the gain from natural lighting.

The following actions can be taken to reduce peak heat load and help the air-conditioner deliver the most comfort:

 Closing all doors, hatches, windows and blinds. Extend all annexes.

 Position the vehicle so that the annex will face the sun and protect the windows from direct solar radiation.

 Turning off unneeded appliances that might increase the heat load inside the van.

 Cook outside if possible.

 Park the caravan/RV in a shaded position.

In periods of extreme high temperature it is recommended to start the air conditioner earlier in the morning to greatly

improve its ability to cope with the expected peak heat load.

III. CONDENSATION

In areas of high humidity, the humid air within the van will cause “sweating” or condensation in parts of the unit as the humid,

warm air contacts the colder air discharged from the system. If this occurs please ensure the following:

 Close all doors, hatches, windows and blinds to limit the ingress of warm humid air.

 Avoid running the inside fan on LOW or AUTO in humid conditions. Running the fan on HIGH fan speed will result in higher

airflow and reduce the tendency to have condensation form.

Aircommand will not be held responsible for damage caused by condensation.

IV. GENERATORS

The Ibis 3 is designed to run using mains power, however many owners may want to use portable generators to run the unit

when in remote locations. Any generator used should deliver high quality, pure sine wave, alternating current at 50Hz, and be

able to handle the compressor start up demand. Given the vast range in quantity and quality of generators on the market

Aircommand cannot recommend a specific model or brand. Discuss your specific requirements with the generator supplier

directly and consider their recommendations.

Aircommand will not be held responsible for damages due to the use of improper generators and such use may void your

warranty.

Ibis 3 Owners Guide Revision V6 Page 7 of 19

INSTALLATION

Mark out the position of the

unit based on the following

important requirements:

Before cutting holes through the roof

ensure that mains power or battery driven

inverters are disconnected

 The unit requires a 360 x 360mm square hole for

installation.

 The Ibis 3 should be placed as close as possible to

the centre of the caravan or RV so that conditioned

air can circulate evenly.

 Ensure that the air outlets will not be blowing

directly onto obstructions.

 Consideration should be given to service access.

Ensure that location of hatches, solar panels,

antennas etc will not prevent access for service

personnel.

 The roof MUST be strong enough to support the

weight of the unit (46kg). Contact your caravan

manufacturer to confirm that this load can be

supported by the roof.

 EXTERNAL CLEARANCE. The path of the

outside fan exhaust must be free. A gap of at least

50mm is required between the roof top unit and

any obstructions.Figure 1

Figure 1 - Foot print of the roof top air conditioner over

360 x 360mm mounting hole. The area at the back

(shown in cross hatch) must be kept free of

obstructions.

 INTERNAL CLEARANCE The inside plenum has

a foot print of 535 x 535 mm centered around the

installation hole. Figure 2

Figure 2- Inside plenum foot print.

 The installation hole must be boxed up with

material that is strong enough to withstand the

compression from the hold down bolts. 20mm wide

timber would be required at a minimum.

Contact Aircommand if your installation differs

significantly from that prescribed above.

1. Cut installation hole

WARNING

There may be electrical wiring located in

the ceiling space. Ensure that power is properly

disconnected at the supply (mains and/or battery).

Failure to do so may result in personal injury or

death.

 Once the position of the unit has been determined

cut out the 360 x 360 installation hole and boxed

MAINTENANCE

1. Filter

The filter must be cleaned periodically to ensure that it

does not become clogged with dust and other

particles. The state of the filter can be ascertained

from its appearance, if it appears dirty or clogged then

it should be cleaned.

A blocked filter will impair the cooling & heating

performance of the unit significantly.

To clean the filter, first remove it by pushing both tabs

on the side to release. Figure 16. Swing the filter

down and out. Figure 15 & Figure 14.

The filter can be washed with warm soapy water. Care

must be taken to avoid ripping the fabric. The filter

must be completely dry before reinstallation.

Replace by reversing the above process.

WARNING

Airborne particles can pose a health risk,

particularly to young children and the elderly.

Ensure that filters are cleaned in a safe and well

ventilated area

The filter should be cleaned every four weeks or more

when in use. Prolonged use, higher concentrations of

airborne particles and various other factors may result

in the filters needing to be cleaned more often.

Replacement return air filters can be ordered directly

from Aircommand. (Part No. 8102044)

2. Remote control

The remote control can be cleaned with a damp cloth.

If the remote will not be used for a period of time it is

recommended that the batteries are removed & stored

separately. Remove the cover to the battery

compartment by sliding in direction shown below

Figure 23. Replace with 2 x AAA batteries. Check

battery polarity. Replace cover.

Figure 23 - Remote control batteries

3. Hold Down bolts

Aircommand suggests that the 4 hold down bolts

attaching the unit to the roof are initially checked for

tightness within the first 3 months of installation, and

thereafter every 12 months if the van is in constant

use. The recommended bolt torque is 12-14 Nm.

4. Storage

The air conditioner should be run on a routine basis to

ensure the components remain in working order.

If the van is in storage or is to remain unoccupied for

an extended length of time it is recommended that the

air conditioner is allowed to run uninterrupted for 20-

30min once every six months.

TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE

Symptom

Cause

Correction

Unit does not

operate

No power supply to unit

Check that mains power is plugged into van and that the supply is

switched ON.

Check the van’s air-conditioner power circuit breaker is ‘ON’

Remote control is not

operating

Check the remote control screen. If blank then replace batteries

See Figure 23 - Remote control batteries.

Stand close to unit and point remote directly towards the IR

receiver in the plenum. Test operation of remote. If there is no

‘beep’ from the air conditioner then replace batteries and re test.

See Figure 23 - Remote control batteries.

Test air conditioner operation by using manual operation button.

See Figure 26 - Status display in corner of inside plenum.

Fault condition rapid

flashes of ‘Fan’ indicator

light on plenum

4 rapid flashes – inside coil not cooling “E4”

5 rapid flashes – return air sensor fault “E1”

6 rapid flashes – inside coil sensor fault “E2”

7 rapid flashes – outside coil sensor fault “E3”

8 rapid flashes - outside coil over temperature “E5”

Continuous flashing without break - communication fault

Contact Aircommand Australia for specialist advice on fault

correction and access to our service agents.

Poor cooling or

heating

performance

Return air filter is blocked

Remove filter, clean & replace. See Figure 16 - Remove filter from

plenum. Clean filter every 4 weeks, more frequently with high use

Air outlets are closed

Ensure that at least 2 outlets are opened. Highest capacity occurs

when all 4 outlets are fully opened.

Outside fan air intake is

blocked

Check that debris has not blocked the external air intake of the roof

top unit. Clear intake grille.

High outside air

temperatures in cooling

Take action to reduce your peak heat load – extend awnings, close

blinds, windows & hatches, start air conditioner earlier in the

morning.

Discuss your expected heat load with your caravan supplier and size

the air conditioning capacity to suit.

Outside air temperature exceeds the unit’s operating temperature

range.

Low outside air

temperatures in heating

Discuss expected heat loss with your caravan supplier and size air

conditioning capacity to suit.

Outside air temperature is below the unit’s operating temperature

range.

Intermittent operation

during very hot & very cold

days

During cooling on very hot days the compressor overload may be

activated. This is to protect the unit. Take all steps to reduce heat

load on caravan.

During heating on cold mornings the unit will periodically enter

automatic de-ice mode to clear ice from its outside coil. Heat mode

light will flash. Normal operation will resume once ice has been

melted.

Water coming from

roof top unit and

draining across the

outside of the

caravan roof

In cooling mode this is

‘condensate’ water that has

been removed from the air

inside your van

This is normal. The unit will dehumidify air inside the caravan and

provide more comfortable living conditions.

In humid conditions close doors, windows and hatches.

Run the inside fan on High or Medium.

Avoid using Low or Auto fan speeds in these conditions

In heating mode this is

water that has been melted

during de-ice cycles

This is normal. During heating on cold mornings the unit will

periodically enter automatic de-ice mode to clear ice from the

outside coil. Normal operation will resume once ice has been

melted.
