The “temp set” button [Figure 4-1, left-hand button] controls the temperature adjustment of both the
freezer and the refrigerator compartments; the selections chosen will not change if the operation mode
(AC power or propane gas) changes. To select the desired degree of coldness push and hold the “temp
set” button—this will step through numbers “1” through “9” where “9” is the coldest setting attainable.
Hold the button until the desired setting number is realized, then release the button.
The “mode” button [Figure 4-1, the middle button] controls the operation mode of the refrigerator—
there is one automatic mode and three manual modes of operation. To select the desired mode, push the
“mode” button and release it when the desired mode (e.g.,
AU
= automatic,
AC
= AC-powered,
LP
=
propane gas mode,
DC
= DC electric) is realized.
In the
automatic
(
AU
)
mode
, the refrigerator automatically selects the most efficient energy source
available for operation. Should a more efficient energy source become available during the operation of
the refrigeration, the automatic mode will then select it for continued operation of the refrigerator.
When 120 VAC power is available, it will be selected and the display will show “AU” “AC” flashing in
the display. In about ten seconds, the display goes “off” and only a power indicator light remains “on.”
If there is not any 120 VAC power available, the display will flash “AU” “LP” to indicate that LP gas is
the energy source being used.
Should the refrigerator be a three-way model and neither 120 VAC nor LP gas is available, the display will
flash “AU” to indicate that the refrigerator is being powered by a DC energy source (the batteries).
Should there be any improper operation of the refrigerator, the display will show various error codes—
the user should become familiar with those codes in the manufacturer’s literature for the refrigerator.
Manual operation
can also be selected by pressing the “mode” button for the desired type of operation.
In the “LP” mode (either manual or automatic), on initial start-up of the refrigerator, ignition of the
propane gas may not occur for 30 seconds. If gas ignition doesn’t occur within 30 seconds, the gas safety
valve in the refrigerator will close. Then either the refrigerator selects another mode of operation (in the
automatic mode) or an audible alarm sounds (in the manual LP mode) which will remain “on” until the
“mode” switch to cancel that alarm. In this case, push the “on/off” switch two times to stop and restart
the refrigerator; then attempt the LP gas ignition process once more. If the gas still doesn’t ignite, check
the gas supply line and consult a qualified service technician.
Should a failure occur, the display will indicate various failure codes to help the owner determine what
fault or faults may have occurred so that they may be expediently addressed. Not all failure codes will
have an accompanying audible alarm, so the owner should not rely solely on the audible alarm for fault
indications.
NOTE: To operate the refrigerator in the LP-gas mode, the 12 VDC power source must be operational;
otherwise, the refrigerator will not operate on LP gas. If the refrigerator is operating in the LP-gas mode
and the 12 VDC power is disconnected, the refrigerator will cease operating.
On the refrigerator, the “thermostat” function controls both the gas and electrical operations—this
eliminates the necessity of resetting the temperature each time one switches from gas to electrical service
