9. Customer service
Before notifying customer service, please check the
following:
Are location and ventilation satisfactory?
Does the appliance stand evenly?
Is there a current in the wall socket and is the
connection suitable for the appliance?
Is the mains power cable damaged?
For mains operation, is the electric thermostat
swiched on?
For gas operation, was the safety valve knob
pressed down long enough?
Is the safety valve knob set towards the large
flame symbol?
Is the gas cylinder or the pressure regulator valve
open?
Is there any gas in the cylinder? (If by shaking, no
liquid movement can be detected, then the
cylinder is empty.)
Are by any chance two different power sources
connected (such as gas or electricity)?
Was warm food placed in the unit?
Was a large quantity of food put in at one time?
If after checking the above, the appliance still does
not operate properly, contact customer service. When
reporting the problem, state the type of problem, the
type of appliance, and the product number and serial
number from the data plate.
We assume the warranty in accordance with our
warranty assumptions for the appliance.
10. Putting into operation
You must, in all instances, operate the
appliance from a single energy source only.
Connecting several energy sources at the same time
will cause failure of the appliance.
Technical data:
10.1 Connecting to electrical mains
Make sure no other energy source is connected
(gas, 12V).
The appliance may only be operated from nominal
voltage mains as shown on the data plate. The
appliance mains plug may be connected to a mains
socket earthed in accordance with regulations. (In
foreign countries, because of other electric
receptacles, an adapter may be required.)
10.2 Connecting to vehicle power
source
Make sure no other energy source is connected
(gas, 120V).
12V appliances must be connected to a vehicle
cigarette lighter, which is protected with a 16A fuse.
10.3 Connecting to gas cylinder
Make sure no other energy source is connected
(120V, 12V).
This refrigerator is designed for self-contained fuel
cylinder of not more than 75 cubic inches (2 ½
pounds nominal water capacity). The cylinder(s)
must be constructed and marked in accordance
with the specifications for LP-gas cylinders of the
U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), DOT
SPEC. 89 (49CFR 178.65), in Canada, with the
ministry of transport and communication.
The refrigerator may only be operated by a self-
contained 14 oz propane HD5 gas bottle, which is
to be connected to the refrigerator by means of the
supplied manual control valve and the pressure
regulator with hose. The gas burner is fitted with a
jet Nr. 22 which is suitable for use on Propane gas
at a supply pressure of 11 inches water gauge.
10.4 Connection of gas supply
(Fig.11)
a. fit the manual control valve (Fig.11.1) with
pressure regulator (Fig.11.2) and hose finger
tight to the self contained 14 oz gas cylinder
(Fig. 11.3)
b. connect the gas hose to the inlet (Fig. 11.4) at
the back of the refrigerator with tools (see label
at the connection)
c. put the gas bottle assembly about 10 from the
refrigerator.
After connecting
all gas connections must be
checked for leaks
. For this put a soapy solution
on all gas connections, turn on the gas cylinder
manual valve and watch for bubbles.
For the detection of leaks never use an open flame.
If the gas bottle is empty withdraw it from the bottle
holder, unscrew the manual control valve /
pressure regulator-assemly from the bottle and refit
a new one.
