HOW TO USE YOUR CARAVAN’S EQUIPMENT
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To secure optimal performance, level your vehicle
before operating the refrigerator.
We advise to clean the inside of the refrigerator
properly before using your refrigerator.
• To switch on the refrigerator, push the on/off
switch and hold it for 1 second. A light in the
on/off switch will turn green.
• After 10 seconds the settings will dim. The
green light indicates the refrigerator is still in
function.
• To check the settings push the confirmation
button. The last selected settings will light up.
• For optimal performance, switch on the
refrigerator 8 hours before placing food.
• After switching on the refrigerator, push the
confirmation button and hold it for 2
seconds. The symbols for the sources light up
and start to blink.
• Choose the desired source by pushing the
arrow buttons.
• Confirm your choice with the confirmation
button.
Sources
220V- The refrigerator is powered
240V by the mains.
12V The refrigerator is powered by the
battery of your vehicle.
Gas The refrigerator is powered by the
gas connection of a gas bottle.
The refrigerator is only operated, when the
control panel is powered. A stand-alone model
(installed by your dealer) is operational using AA
batteries in the event of no mains or battery.
Open the small cover
underneath the control panel,
place 6 new 1.5V AA/LR6
batteries as shown.
Always use the gas connection or mains voltage
to start up and cool. Operating on 12V is only
effective while the engine of the vehicle is
running.
The performance of the refrigerator, by operation
on 12V, is dependent on the thickness and length
of the wiring and the overall installation of the
vehicle.
When selecting gas, the flame should be ignited
within 30 seconds. If the system fails, restart the
refrigerator and select the gas source again.
From about 1000m above sea level problems of a
physical nature can occur when lighting the gas.
This does not mean that the refrigerator is not
working properly.
Selecting cooling level
After switching on the refrigerator, push the
confirmation button and hold it for 2 seconds.
The symbols for the sources start to blink. Push
the confirmation button again.
The cooling level indicators start to blink. Use the
arrow button to choose the desired cooling level.
Confirm your choice with the confirmation
button.
Your refrigerator meets the climate class SN
requirements according to EN/ISO 7371 at a
temperature of 10ºC to 32ºC.
We advise to set the refrigerator on cooling level
3, with an ambient temperature between 15ºC
and 25ºC. A higher temperature needs a higher
cooling level, a lower temperature a lower level.
To improve the cooling performance of your
refrigerator in high temperatures, Thetford
advises to install the Ventilator Kit. It helps to
detract the warm air quicker to the vents. The
ventilator kit is suitable for all Thetford
refrigerators.
Use of refrigerator compartment
Storage shelves and door bins can be moved to
different heights, make sure the door can still be
closed after reorganising shelves and bins.
Moving storage shelves
Turn the plastic clamp on the
right side of the storage shelf
upwards, as shown. Lift the right
side a bit, and move the storage
shelf to the desired position. First
place the left side of the storage
shelf in the refrigerator wall, then the right side in
the corresponding groove. Turn the plastic clamp
downwards. Your storage shelf is fixated again.
