Equipment Details
ENVIRONMENTAL HINTS
Refrigerators manufactured by Dometic
GmbH are CFC-free.
Ammonia (a natural compound of hydrogen
and nitrogen) is used in the cooling unit as a
coolant. The non-ozone-hazardous
cyclopentan is used as a propellant in the
manufacture of the PU foam insulation.
DISPOSAL
In order to ensure that the recyclable
packaging materials are re-used, these
should be sent to the usual local collection
system.
The appliance should be transferred to a
suitable waste disposal company that will
ensure re-use of the recyclable components
and proper disposal of the rest.
For eco-friendly draining of the coolant from
all absorber refrigeration units, a suitable
disposal plant should be used.
ENERGY-SAVING TIPS
• At an average ambient temperature of
approx. 25°C, it is sufficient to operate
the refrigerator at the middle thermostat
setting (for both gas and mains voltage).
• Where possible, always store goods that
have previously been cooled.
• Do not position the refrigerator in direct
sunlight.
• Constant circulation of air must be
supplied to the refrigerator unit.
• Defrost regularly.
• Open the door only for a short time when
removing goods from the refrigerator.
• Run the refrigerator for about 12 hours
before filling it.
MODEL RM7501
The refrigerator can be run on 230V, 12 V
or LP gas. Changing between these modes
of operation is carried out by means of the
control buttons positioned as shown in
fig. C.
The energy selection (A) can be set at either
"AC" (230V), "DC" (12 V), "GAS" (LP gas) or
"OFF".
An indicator lamp (B) at the control panel
flashes when the automatic ignitor attempts
to light the burner. Otherwise this lamp is
off.
The refrigerator is fitted with a safety device,
which automatically shuts off the supply of
gas if the flame goes out. The safety device
can be opened manually be depressing knob
(C).
The refrigerator temperature is controlled by
a thermostat (D) when the refrigerator runs
on 230V and LP gas. Please note that the
thermostat has no "off" position when the
refrigerator runs on LP gas.
STARTING THE REFRIGERATOR
LP Gas operation
After initial installation, servicing, or changing
gas cylinders etc., the gas pipes may
contain some air, which should be allowed to
escape by briefly turning on the refrigerator
or other appliances. This will ensure that the
flame lights immediately.
To start gas operation:
1. Open the shut off valve of the gas bottle
(check that there is enough gas). Open
any on-board shut-off valve.
2. Set the thermostat knob (D) to the
highest setting.
3. Turn the energy selector (A) to position
"GAS". A ticking sound will be heard and
the lamp (B) will start flashing.
4. Press the button (C). This opens the
flame failure device and allows gas to
flow to the burner.
