APPLIANCE AND EQUIPMENT OPERATION
Refer to your Motorhome Information Bag for operation
and maintenance details relating to the specific
appliances and equipment installed in your motorhome.
REFRIGERATOR
The refrigerator in your motorhome operates in the
following modes:
o
120-Volt AC Electric
o
12-Volt DC
Parking and leveling the motorhome for comfortable
living will usually place the refrigerator within
satisfactory level limits. Use a level to ensure the
motorhome is within a couple degrees of level.
If the refrigerator is unused for an extended period
of time, make sure it is emptied, switched off,
defrosted, cleaned and left with the door ajar. Use
the travel latch to lock the door in the ajar position if
applicable.
Operating the Refrigerator
Refer to the refrigerator owner’s manual in your
Motorhome Information Bag for detailed operating
instructions.
Refrigerator Operating Tips
o
Ensure the refrigerator is cold before placing
items in it.
o
Allow items to cool before loading the
refrigerator. Do not add warm or hot items.
o
Do not pack the refrigerator too full. To operate
efficiently, the refrigerator needs air to circulate.
o
Use smaller containers to store items.
o
Use containers that seal tightly.
o
Place crumpled paper between items in the
refrigerator to prevent them from rattling while
driving.
NOTICE
The motorhome MUST be completely level for the
refrigerator to operate properly and safely.
CAUTION
Operating the refrigerator with the motorhome
parked on unlevel ground could result in permanent
damage to the appliance.
NOTICE
Leaving the door slightly open allows air to circulate
and prevents build-up of odor or mold.
