Transportation
Your refrigerator is designed to operate during normal transportation
of your coach. Please refer to the following guidelines to assist during
transportation.
●
During long trips, leave your refrigerator off until 3 hours before
your destination arrival. This will help reduce any moisture/ice
accumulation and accidental battery discharging.
●
Avoid traveling with food in the cavity. Wait until you have arrived to
your destination and remove any remaining food before departing.
●
Never transport with the Storage lock in place.
●
Turn refrigerator to "OFF" if climbing/crawling any off-road grades.
Compressor oil should resettle within 2 hours.
Energy Saving Tips
●
When possible, place your coach or refrigeration in a position to
avoid direct sun.
●
Cool down the hot food to normal temperature before putting them
into the refrigerator.
●
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before
placing them in the refrigerator. This could prevent frost buildup
inside the refrigerator.
●
Organize and label the food to reduce door openings and long time
searches.
Extended Storage
Any time the unit is not to be in-use, it is considered "extended storage".
Follow the below steps to properly prepare the unit for storage:
1. Remove all food and turn the dial to off.
2. Let any accumulated ice thaw, and dry out with a towel.
3. Disconnect power(either via main disconnect switch, and turning the
converter off or fuse).
4. Remove charcoal filter to preserve charcoal activation, replace with a
new filter every season or after three months of active use.
5. Install door Storage Lock.
See the "
Storage Lock
" section about how to install the Storage
Lock.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Refrigerator Interior Cleaning
It is recommended to clean the interior as needed due to spills and other
cleaning needs, or each time a new charcoal filter is replaced.
Refrigerator Exterior Cleaning
To maintain good appearance of your refrigerator, it is recommended to
clean it regularly.
Mix together one to two tablespoon of baking soda and one quart of
water. Wipe down the walls and glass doors of the refrigerator with
this solution, then rinse it with water. Wipe the refrigerator dry. Avoid
using abrasive cleaners and scrubbing pads or they will damage the
refrigerator surfaces.
Battery Maintenance
Your refrigerator has an automatic shut-off switch, should the voltage
drop below 9.6V at the terminal connection. This is to help prevent
permanent damage to your batteries.
NOTE:
Once voltage is re-established the refrigerator will begin
working automatically per the setting of the dial.
When possible maintain the float voltage listed on your battery. Solar
is a good way to maintain battery voltage if a local power source is not
available.
Replacing the Charcoal Filter
Replace the charcoal filter by pulling it out from the refrigerator as
shown in Fig. 10 and replace with a new one.
