Operating Instructions

The TIROAR 3312020.000 Multi-Zone Kit functions as the control center for your Dometic CCC2 compatible thermostat. Operation of the air conditioning system is primarily managed through the connected 10-button thermostat (e.g., Dometic 3314082.000 or 3314082.011).

Refer to the instruction manual provided with your Dometic 10-button thermostat for specific operating procedures, including:

• Setting desired temperatures.
• Selecting operating modes (Cool, Heat Pump, Furnace, Fan).
• Adjusting fan speeds.
• Programming schedules (if applicable to your thermostat model).

The control box translates commands from the thermostat to the air conditioner and furnace units, managing multi-zone functionality and ensuring proper system operation.

Maintenance

The TIROAR 3312020.000 Multi-Zone Kit is designed for reliable operation with minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks can help ensure longevity and optimal performance:

• Visual Inspection: Annually, or as needed, visually inspect the control box and its wiring for any signs of wear, corrosion, or loose connections. Ensure the housing is free from dust and debris.
• Sensor Check: Ensure the freeze control sensor is securely in place and free from obstructions.
• Power Disconnection: Always disconnect power before performing any inspection or maintenance.

Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your RV's climate control system after installing the TIROAR 3312020.000 Multi-Zone Kit, consider the following:

• No Power to Thermostat/AC Unit:
  • Check RV's main circuit breaker and individual AC unit breakers.
  • Verify all wiring connections to the control box are secure and correctly matched according to the diagram.
  • Ensure the RV's 12V DC power supply is active, as the control box requires 12VDC input.
• AC Unit Not Cooling/Heating Properly:
  • Confirm the thermostat is set to the correct mode (Cool, Heat Pump, Furnace) and desired temperature.
  • Check the freeze control sensor for proper placement and connection. A faulty or improperly placed sensor can prevent cooling.
  • Verify compatibility of your AC unit and thermostat with this control box.
• Thermostat Display Issues or Error Codes:
  • Refer to your Dometic 10-button thermostat's manual for specific error code interpretations.
  • Ensure the RJ-11 cable connecting the thermostat to the control box is securely plugged in at both ends.
• Fan Not Operating:
  • Check fan speed settings on the thermostat.
  • Inspect fan wiring connections at the control box.

If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, contact customer support or a qualified RV technician.
