INSTALLATION
GENERAL INSTRUCTION
This appliance is designed for storage of foods and
storage of frozen foods and making ice.
The refrigerators outlined herein have been design cer-
tified by A.G.A. under the ANSI 221.19 Refrigerator Stan-
dard for installation in a mobil home or recreational
vehicle and areapproved by the Canadian Gas Associa-
tion.
The certifications are, however contingent on the instal-
lation being made in accordance with the following in-
structions as applicable.
In the U.S.A., the installation must conform with:
1. National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223.1 -(latest edition)
2. Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Stan-
dard, Tile 24 CFR, Part 3280.
3.
Recreational Vehicles ANSI Al 19.2-(latest edition).
The unit must be electrically grounded in accordance
with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-(latest
edition) when installed, if an external alternating current
electrical source is utilized.
4. Any applicable local code.
In CANADA,
the installation must conform with:
1. Current CGA B 149 Gas Installation Codes
2. Current CSA Standard Z 248.4 GAS-EQUIPPED
RECREATIONAL VEHICLES AND MOBIL HOUS-
ING.
3. Any applicable local code
The unit must be electrically grounded in accordance
with the current CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE C 22
Parts 1 and 2.
VENTILATION
The installation shall be made in such a manner as to
separate the combustion system from the living space
of the
mobii
home or recreational vehicle. Openings for
air supply or for venting of combustion products shall
have a minimum dimension of not less than 1/4 inch.
Proper installation requires one lower fresh air intake and
one upper exhaust vent. The ventilation kiis shown in this
instruction manual have been certified for use with the
refrigerator models listed in the Table 2, “Certified Vent
System Kits” . The ventilation kits must be installed and
used without modification. An opening toward the out-
side at floor level in the refrigerator compartment must
be provided for ventilation of heavier-than-air fuel gases.
The lower vent of the recommended kiis is provided with
proper size openings. The flow of combustion and ven-
tilating air must not be obstructed.
The lower side vent is fitted with a panel which provides
an adequate access
opening for ready service ability of
the burner and control manifold of the refrigerator.
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 con-
nections should be checked for leaks with soapy water.
WARNING
DO NOT use a flame to check for gas leaks.
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 in
excess of 1/2 psig, the refrigerator and its individual
shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supp-
ly piping system.
When testing the gas supply system at pressures less
than or equal to 1/2 psig, the appliance must be isolated
from the gas supply piping system by closing its inividual
manual shutoff valve.
In case detailed instructions on the installation and con-
nection to the gas supply are required, contact your
dealer or distributor.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
120 Volts AC Connection
The refrigerator is equipped with a three prong
(grounded) plug for protection against shock hazards,
and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded
three prong receptacle. DO NOT cut or remove the
grounding prong from this plug. The free length of the
cord is 2 feet and therefore recommended that the recep-
tacle be located to the left side of the refrigerator (viewed
from the rear) and approximately 6 inches from the floor
(see FIG. 3).
This allows easy access through the vent
door. The cord should be routed to avoid contacting the
burner cover, flue cover or any other components that
could damage the cord insulation.
