Section 10: Appliances
Whenever the stove in the RV is being used: The range hood MUST be turned
on, and the inner flap MUST be unsnapped and free to move. Failure to do so
can create an asphyxiation hazard by restricting air flow to this vent.
Refrigerator
The refrigerator is not intended for quick freezing or cooling. We recommend stocking it
with pre-frozen or pre-cooled food when possible. The shelves should not be covered with
paper or plastic and the food items should be arranged so air can circulate freely. Keep the
area at the back of the refrigerator clean and free of debris. Check for obstructions in the
exterior refrigerator vent area (i.e., spider webs, bird nests, etc.). Use a soft cloth to dust off
the debris.
For optimum efficiency and performance, it is recommended the refrigerator be checked at
least twice a year as part of the routine maintenance.
For detailed operating and safety information, refer to the manufacturer’s user guide.
Gas/Electric Models (if so equipped)
Residential Models (if so equipped)
3-Way Refrigerators (if so equipped)
Depending on your model, you may have a 3-way refrigerator (12VDC, LP GAS or
120VAC).
If you smell propane gas STOP! Follow the directions located in your manu-
facturer’s owner’s manual and in this manual.
NOTE: If you are using electric to power the refrigerator, make
sure you are connected to a 120-volt power source.
The ice maker (if so equipped) should be turned off and the ice tray emptied
when power to your recreation vehicle has been shut off. With no power, the
ice will melt and water may “pool” in the refrigerator door. When power is
restored, the vibration may cause this water to run out of the door and on to
the vehicle floor.
