Operating the Refrigerator Controls – N611
(Kiwi Too, Option Kiwi 23B, 23D, 25E)
CONTROL PANEL
The refrigerator control panel is between the freezer compartment and the fresh food
compartment. To maintain the operating control functions of the refrigerator, a 12-volt
DC power supply is necessary. The refrigerator and any other DC components in the
vehicle receive DC power from the 12-volt system of the vehicle; either an auxiliary
battery, a converter, or the vehicle engine battery.
The selector switch starts (Fig. 5-6 - #1) and shuts down the refrigerator;
•
Push the selector switch to the AUTO position to start the refrigerator in auto mode.
•
Push the selector switch to the GAS position to start the refrigerator on propane gas.
The temperature switch (Fig. 5-6 - #2) controls the temperature adjustment of the freezer
and the fresh food compartment. The temperature adjustment that you select does not
change if the mode of operation of the refrigerator changes.
•
Push the temperature switch to the desired temperature setting.
•
The number “5” is the coldest temperature setting.
Refer to the “Display Codes” section of manufacturer’s owner’s manual.
AUTOMATIC MODE OPERATION:
When you select AUTO mode, the refrigerator controls automatically select the most
efficient energy source that is available for operation. If a more efficient energy source
becomes available, the refrigerator controls change from the current energy source to the
more efficient energy source.
The controls select the energy source in this sequence:
• When 120-volt AC is available to the refrigerator:
•
The ON light shows (Fig. 5-6 - #3) in the center display.
•
This means that the refrigerator is operating on AC electric.
• If 120-volt AC is not available to the refrigerator:
•
The ON light and the GAS light (Fig. 5-6 - #3 & #4) show in the center
display.
•
This means that the refrigerator is operating on propane gas.

burner area. This could cause a fire or explosion and result in dangerous
personal injury or death.
