Refrigerator
Your travel trailer has a gas electric absorption refrigerator that is powered by an LP gas flame
and a 110V/120V heating element permitting flexibility in operation and silent refrigeration
wherever you go.
For trouble free, uninterrupted operation, it is important that the user understand the refrigerators
operation and certain conditions that must be met. The freezing unit uses heat as a source of
power. The heat generated either by gas flame or electricity circulates the refrigerant in the form
of a vapour up through the condenser where it is changed to a liquid. The liquid flows down
through the evaporator on its way back to the vapour generator completing the cycle.
When the liquid passes through the evaporator it is again changed into a vapor by heat absorbed
by the food and cabinet area. This heat-laden vapor can be trapped or partially trapped when the
refrigerator is not level, which will result in a partial or total loss of refrigeration. Therefore the
refrigerator must be fairly level to operate on either gas or electricity. Parking level enough to
sleep comfortably should do it.
[We met RVers who couldn’t afford a new refrigerator. During
13 years of summer camping, they had never levelled the trailer after separating from the hitch.
Voila! It did work!]
The refrigerator in your travel trailer has electronic ignition. The controls are easily accessible
and located above the freezer compartment door. 12V DC power must be available for any
selected mode of operation.
