120-Volt AC Option
Should you have 120-Volt AC option there are 2 switches. One is located
on the outside of water heater, inside the service door. The second switch
is located on the monitor panel marked as “ELECTRIC”. Both switches
must be in “ON” position to operate.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS APPLIANCE ON TWO ENERGY SOURCES
AT THE SAME TIME. DAMAGES WILL OCCUR.
Winterizing Your Water Heater
If your water heater plumbing system is equipped with a bypass kit, use
it to close off the water heater. Drain the water heater completely and
leave the water heater closed off (out of the system) in the bypass
position particularly if you are introducing antifreeze into the plumbing
system.
Antifreeze can be very corrosive to the anode rod creating premature
failure and leave sediment in the tank. If the plumbing system is not
equipped with a bypass kit, and you intend to winterize by adding
antifreeze to the system, remove the anode rod (storing it for the winter)
and replace it with a 3/4 inch drain plug.
Refrigerator
KZRV installs many different sizes and models of refrigerators operating
on 120-Volt AC, propane, and optional 12-Volt DC energy sources.
Operation Requirements
Refrigerators placed into smaller RVs at KZRV have an absorption
cooling unit, consuming propane fuel, 120-Volt AC, and optional 12-Volt
DC power. These units protect food by removing the heat in the
refrigerator, retaining the temperature in the 34° - 38° range. This type of
cooling unit, absorption system, requires precise leveling and venting.
Leveling
For correct operation, the refrigerator must be within three degrees of
being level in any direction. Continued operation outside of these limits
will result in irreparable damage to the cooling unit in the refrigerator. Stay
within 1 degree for best results. At 1 degree off level your 30 foot trailer
will be 5 inches higher at 1 end than the other, not a comfortable
condition.
Temperature setting on the control was factory set at the
lowest setting to reduce risk of scald injury. Setting the
temperature dial past the low position will increase the risk of
scald injury. Children, disabled, elderly and diabetics are at
highest risk of being scalded.
