this manual.)
NOTE: Because this model is available in sever-
al sizes and floor plans, some items de-
scribed may be optional or unavailable
on your coach.
The appliances installed in your motor home
are manufactured by reputable RV appliance
makers and have been tested by independent lab-
oratories to meet all applicable standards and
codes set for RV appliances. These appliances
are covered by your New Vehicle Limited War-
ranty. (Certain items may be covered by individ-
ual manufacturer’s warranty.) See your New
Vehicle Limited Warranty for details.
REFRIGERATOR
The refrigerator in your coach can be operated
from either of two power sources available to the
motor home:
-
110-Volt AC electric
-
LP gas
The refrigerator is an absorption type which
uses an ammonia-water solution for cooling. Ba-
sically, ammonia vapor is distilled from the solu-
tion by heat, produced from either LP gas or
electricity and then carried to the finned condens-
er where it liquefies. The liquid then flows to an
evaporator where it creates cold temperatures
through evaporation.
LEVELING
Before operating the refrigerator when the
motor home is stationary, place a small level on
the freezer plate and make certain the unit is lev-
el.
Normal vehicle leveling to provide comfort
for the occupants is satisfactory for refrigerator
operation. This will be well within the operation
limits of 3
°
off-level side-to-side and 6
°
off-level
front-to-back.

CAUTION
To prevent permanent damage to the
refrigerator cooling unit, turn the
refrigerator off if the vehicle will be
parked on an incline of over 3
°
side-
to-side or 6
°
front-to-rear (such as
steep driveways or parking lots, etc.)
for more than one hour.
