Now install the Refrigerator in the selected location:
•
Put the Refrigerator in place making sure that the
flexible metal connector (if used) does not kink.
3. Controls
All controls are placed on the console located at the base
of the Refrigerator and are connected to the control
devices located in the Refrigerator’s back.
(See fig. B and C).
4. Gas Installation
Gas must be supplied by a 3/8” copper pipe free from
sharp-corner curves, mounted on the conical coupling
connected to the manual shut off valve.
This feed-pipe must be placed so as to avoid damage
when the Refrigerator is removed from its compartment.
When connecting the Refrigerator to the gas supply use
a pressure control valve in the propane cylinder.
Never connect the propane cylinder directly to the
Refrigerator.
Where a flexible metal connector is used, it must comply
with the provisions of the current CSA 6.10 Standard;
“METAL CONNECTORS FOR GAS APPLIANCES”
Use propane gas only. As propane gas is
highly flammable, it is extremely important to
check the effective sealing of all joints, from
cylinder to Refrigerator.
After installation, the propane supply must be
turned on and all pipe joints checked for
leakage, from propane cylinder bottle to the
burner, using a water/soap solution. Never use
flame to test for gas leakage.
5. How to get the best out of your
Refrigerator
5.1 How to make it work (Fig. B)
(Lighting instructions)
With the Refrigerator correctly installed, gas supply
connected and manual shut off valve open, the following
must be done to make it work:
•
Turn the thermostat knob (B2) to the coldest setting
(Pos. 4 in the scale).
•
Depress and hold (B3) while actuating the piezo-igniter
(B5) a few times or until the flame lights
•
The sparks can be seen through the light conductor
(B1) which will light up as soon as the burner goes on.
If there are no sparks see “Trouble-shooting”.
•
Hold (B3) depressed for another five seconds,
release while checking that the flame stays on.
If the flame goes out, repeat the procedure, or consult
Trouble-shooting.
•
Set the thermostat knob to the defrost position (B6) for
at least five minutes checking that the flame does not
go out.
•
Set the thermostat to within its normal range
(Pos. 1 to 3 in the scale).
5.2 Absorption Refrigerators are different
The operation of an absorption Refrigerator is noiseless
and, therefore, one can not tell whether it is working by
simply listening. Within one hour, however, the bottom of
the frozen food compartment should begin to get cold.
Pulldown to operating temperature takes from six to
twelve hours, depending on room temperature.
We suggest that the Refrigerator be left empty during the
first few hours of operation.
Also later on, avoid placing too much food in the
Refrigerator at one time:
•
Store perishables first.
•
Store no more than 10 lbs (5 kilos) at a time.
•
Allow hot food to cool down before placing it in the
Refrigerator.
•
Avoid keeping the doors open for more than is strictly
necessary.
When trying to light the flame, press the selector
valve button for more than 10 seconds.
Check whether the flame is centered in rela-
tion to the heater pipe (chimney).
If it is not, turn the product off and call a ser-
vice agency. Do not run the Refrigerator under
this circumstance. See detail in figure 1.
Note
: Any servicing of gas pipes can only be performed
by an authorized dealer. Should you detect any irregular
gas pressure or installation, contact your dealer or an
authorized workshop. The owner must never perform any
tasks that require the loosening of gas pipes.
