The refrigerator can be run on either 230 V or LP gas, or even 12VDC for some models. Changing between
these modes of operation is carried out by means of control buttons positioned as shown in fig. 1.
The piezoelectric igniter discharges sparks over the burner when the button (A) is depressed.
In the flame indicator (B), you can see a blue light when the flame is alight.
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 by depressing knob (C).
The refrigerator temperature is controlled by a thermostat (D). Please note that the thermostat has no "off"
position.
The Gas/Power/DC12V rotary switch (F) can be set at either AC(=Electricity power AC Neon lamp is on ,
while LP gas is off), or OFF (=Electricity power is off , while LP is off.).,or GAS (=Electricity power is off , while
LP gas needs to be connected.).or DC12V (=Electricity power DC Neon lamp is on, Electricity power AC
Neon lamp is off , while LP gas is off).The AC Neon lamp Or DC Neon lamp (E) inside will light when the
electric power is on.
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. This will ensure that the flame lights
immediately.
1.
Make sure that all valves between the gas container and the refrigerator are open.
2.
Turn power switch to gas.
3.
Depress the safety device control and hold it down while depressing the piezoelectric igniter button
repeatedly.
4.
Check the flame indicator to see whether the flame is alight.
5.
Keep the safety device control depressed for a further 10-15 seconds.
6.
Release the safety device control and again check to see that the flame is alight.
If the burner has not lit after 4-5 attempts, turn off the gas tap, wait 5 minutes and then try to re-light. If the
burner still fails to light, please contact the authorised service provider in your area.
To terminate gas operation, turn the power switch to OFF, then turn off the gas valve from the gas container.
230 VAC Operation
Make sure that the gas valve is turned off.
Turn the power switch to AC mode.
Plug the power cord to the power socket. You will see that the green AC lamp is on.
12VDC Operation
If 230 VAC or LP gas is not available, the refrigerator can work with DC 12V (3-Way models only). Make sure
that you turn the main power switch to “DC” position. Then you can connect the 12VDC power to the terminal
block which is available in the rear bottom part of the refrigerator. You will see the red DC lamp is on.
DC operation is not as efficient as LP Gas or AC operation. DC electric should not be used to initially cool the
refrigerator. Only use DC when the other modes are unavailable (for example; while in transit). When you
start to use AC or gas supply, make sure that you disconnect the DC power input.
