Your camper is installed with a refrigerator made
by Dometic or Thetford.
If the external temperature is high, full refrige
-
rating capacity can only be ensured by means
of sufficient ventilation. If necessary, to achieve
better ventilation, the refrigerator’s ventilation
grille can be removed at the campsite.
Methods of operation
The refrigerator can be operated in three diffe-
rent ways. The desired mode of operation is set
using the energy source selector switch.
-
12 V operation: electrical supply from the bat -
tery of the base vehicle (ignition lock on),
-
230 V operation: electrical supply from an
external source,
-
liquid gas: gas bottles from the camper.
