INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

INSTALLATION OF THE REFRIGERATOR IN A VEHICLE

The refrigerator must be installed on a solid

floor and must be level. With the vehicle care-
fully leveled the refrigerator should level both

ways in the freezer compartment.

Free air circulation over the fins of the cooling
unit is essential.

Clearances around the refrige-

rator should be in accordance with the label
attached to the rear plate of the refrigerator.
In case detailed instructions on the installation
and connection to the gas supply are required,
contact your dealer or distributor.

Leveling

In the boiler ammonia vapor is distilled from an
ammonia-water mixture and carried to the finned
condenser, where it liquifies. The liquid flows
to the evaporator, where it creates cold by

evaporating into a circulating flow of hydrogen
gas. If the evaporator coil is not level the

liquid readily accumulates, forming pockets

w h i c h  can impair the gas circulation or even

block it,

in which case, of course, the cooling

will stop.
When the recreational vehicle is stationary it
must be leveled to be comfortable to live in. If

the refrigerator is properly installed, i e the
freezer shelf parallel to the floor, the refrige-
rator will then also perform well.

A bubble level should be placed on the freezer

shelf. When the vehicle is on tow, the continuous
rolling and pitching movement will not affect
the refrigerator as long as the movement passes
either side of level, but when the trailer is
temporarily parked this sensitivity of the re-
frigerator should be remembered. So, once more,

before you start the refrigerator, make sure

it is level.

HOW TO START THE REFRIGERATOR.

4. After the gas is lit keep the button C pushed

for 10 seconds. Release the button and check
through the reflector that the burner flame
stays burning. If not repeat the lighting pro-
cedure.

NOTE:

After a replacement of the gas con-

tainer or a long shut off period the gas
line is likely to be filled with air. In
such a case the lighting procedure has
to be repeated until the air is pushed

out of the line and the gas has reached
the burner.

Flame Blow Out

If trouble is encountered with the flame blowing
out under specially windy conditions, try to
avoid the wind blowing against the wall where

vent outlets are located. If the trouble persists,

set the thermostat to MAX. This later measure

can of course only be temporary such as when the

vehicle is on tow, for after a day or so at this

setting the foodstuffs in the cabinet will freeze.

Check that the attachment plug is correctly

connected to the mains supply. When the re-
frigerator is equipped also for 12 Volts D C
operation the low voltage connection is made
at the marked terminals at the rear of the re-
frigerator.

Turn the knob A to desired position for electric

operation.
Turn the thermostat knob B to setting 4.

HOW TO USE THE REFRIGERATOR

Food Storage Compartment

The food storage compartment is completely closed

and unventilated, which is necessary to maintain
the required low temperature for food storage.
Consequently foods having a strong odor or liable
to absorb odors should be covered. Vegetables,
salads etc.

should be covered to retain their

crispness. The coldest positions in the refrige-
rators are underneath the cooling evaporator and
at the bottom of the refrigerator, and the least
cold positions are on the upper door shelves. This

should be considered when different types of food

are placed in the refrigerator.

The ice trays should be placed in direct contact
with the freezer shelf for fastest ice making.
Quick frozen soft fruits and ice cream should be
