GAS AND AC OPERATION
LP gas operation
Before starting the refrigerator, check that all the manual
gas valves are in the ON position. Do not forget the manual
shutoff valve on the rear of the refrigerator.

to the “GAS”
position.
Turn the thermostat knob

for the
piezo igniter several times to light the burner. This
can be observed on the flame indicator
E
. When
the flame is on, the red indicator is in the green
field (ON).
After the gas is lit, keep the button

RED indicator is in the GREEN field, (ON).
To shut off the refrigerator turn the knob A to
“OFF”.
Note!
After changing an LP tank, or after a long shut off pe-
riod, the gas line is likely to be filled with air. You may have
to repeat the lighting procedure several times to purge the air
out of the gas lines.
230-240 v AC OPERATION
Before operating the refrigerator, check that the voltage
stated on the data plate is the same as the main voltage in use.

WARNING
!
REGULATING ThE TEMPERATURE
The refrigerator is equipped with a thermostat that can be
adjusted by turning the knob
B
to different setting to maintain
the desired cabinet temperature.
Gas operation
At “OFF, the thermostat closes its main valve and the
burner runs continuously at the bypass rate, just enough to
keep the burner lit.
At “MAX”, the thermostat allows the burner to remain on
high flame continuously.
AC operation (230-240 V AC)
At “OFF, the contacts in the thermostat are open and the
heating elements are off.
At “MAX”, the heating element is “ON” continuously.
Lowest cabinet and freezer temperatures are obtained at
this setting.
The thermostat can be adjusted between “MAX” and “OFF”
to obtain the desired cabinet temperature. The closer the knob
is to “MAX” - the colder the cabinet temperature. The closer
the knob is to “OFF” - the warmer the cabinet temperature.
When the thermostat reaches the set temperature, it will cut
the burner back to bypass or, in electric operation (230-
240 V AC), shut off the heating element. The setting of the
thermostat is not critical, but we recommend it be adjusted
to maintain a dry frost on the cooling fins. Adjust the ther
-
mostat knob closer to “MAX” when the outside temperature
becomes warm.
TURNING OFF ThE REFRIGERATOR
To shut off the refrigerator turn the knob
A
to
“OFF”.
If the refrigerator will not be in operation for a
period of weeks, it should be emptied, defrosted,
cleaned and the door left ajar. The ice tray should
also be dried and kept outside the cabinet.
