CLIMATE CONTROL

During the summer months of high temperatures and
humidity, the metal frame between the freezer and fresh
food compartments may have water droplets forming. The
number of water droplets will increase if the vehicle isn't air
conditioned during these months.
This refrigerator comes standard with a 12 volt (DC)
climate control that will evaporate the water droplets when
they form.

To have the climate control on, you position the switch ("J",
Figure 10) located beneath the top decorative strip that

houses the control panel to ON. The climate control can be
left on continuously or only used when temperatures
require it.

REFRIGERATOR REMOVAL

Before working on the refrigerator, make sure the AC
voltage and DC voltage leads are disconnected. Shut off
the gas supply. Disconnect the gas supply line. Cap the
gas supply line, loosen the screws anchoring the refrigera-
tor to the enclosure and slide the refrigerator out of the
compartment.

Replacement is the reverse of removal. Check all connec-
tions for gas leaks. Refer to 

Section A, Item 1 to 12 of

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

To keep your Dometic refrigerator operating efficiently and
safely, periodic inspection and cleaning of several compo-
nents once or twice a year is recommended.

A. It is important to keep the area at the back of the

refrigerator clean. Check the lower vent, upper vent
and area between these openings for any obstructions
such as bird/insect nests, spider webs, etc. Clean the
coils on the back of the refrigerator. Use a soft bristled
brush to dust off the coils.

It is important to keep the refrigerator vent area free
from combustible material, gasoline and other flam-
mable vapors or liquids.

NOTE: The following maintenance is required once or
twice a year, but should only be done by a qualified
serviceman who is familiar with LP gas systems and
refrigerators.

B. Check all connections in the LP gas system (at the back

of the refrigerator) for gas leaks. The LP gas supply
must be turned on. Apply a noncorrosive bubble solu-
tion to all LP gas connections. The appearance of
bubbles indicates a leak and should be repaired imme-
diately by a QUALIFIED SERVICEMAN WHO IS FA-
MILIAR WITH LP GAS SYSTEMS AND REFRIGERA-
TORS.

C. Check the control system by connecting/disconnecting

120 volt AC power, start/stop the engine, etc. Compare
the operation with the operation described in 

Section C.

Operation Instructions

.

D. The LP gas pressure should be checked and the main

regulator readjusted if pressure is incorrect. The cor-
rect operating pressure is 11 inches of water column.
The correct place to take the LP gas pressure is at the
test port just ahead of the burner jet. (See FIG. 12).
