gas connection
Hook up to the gas supply line is accomplished at the manual
gas valve, which is furnished with a 3/8” SAE (UNF 5/8” -18)
male flare connection. All completed connections should be ex-
amined for leaks using a solution of liquid detergent and water.
The gas supply system must incorporate a pressure regulator
to maintain a supply pressure of not more than 11 inches water
column. When testing the gas supply system at test pressures:
> 1/2 psi
•
- the refrigerator and its individual shutoff valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system.
≤
•
1/2 psi
- the appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its individual manual
shutoff valve.
If detailed instructions on the installation and connection to
the gas supply are required, please contact your dealer or
distributor.

Drain water hose
Drill a hole through flooring. To avoid damage on the hose,
the hole must be positioned so that the hose doesn’t touch the
boiler casing. Seal around the hose that goes through the drilled
hole and ensure that it does not kink when run through the
floor. Check to make sure that the supplied hose is long enough
in order for the water to drain outside of the vehicle. If not, the
installer will have to supply the extra length of hose.
