I recently purchased a 2024 GD 390RK. It has an automatic fan in the kitchen. It is a Hengs with remote and rain sensor. When it rains, the vent xover closes but the fan stays running. My previous rv had a max air that both shut off when it rained. Is anyone familiar with this particular model and is this the way it is designed to operate?

I was reading up on this fan in updated solitude manual. I think it’ll prevent you from turning it on, but maybe not turn it off. Still trying to figure it out, but thought I read you can’t turn it on if the rain sensor was activated. Also states that if you hit the minus button when stopped it’ll rotate the opposite direction and bring air in. Doesn’t do that on mine.
 
I get rain sensing fans, but I really don't like mine. I would love to crack the lid open and then have the fan open. Especially since Grand Design elected to get rid of the overhead stove fan [that vents outside]. When it rains, how to I vent the fumes out?

I’ve got a cover over mine so I can still use it in the rain. However, the cover doesn’t allow me to open it fully. Probably 80% open. Good enough.
