Door Seal
To maintain cooling efficiency and prevent excessive frost buildup, the doors must seal
completely around the entire length of the door gasket. Frequent frost buildup or reduced
cooling are indications of air leaks. To check for complete door sealing, lay a long strip
of paper or a dollar bill across the flange, against which the gasket seals; then close the
door. A frictional drag should be felt when withdrawing the paper. Repeat in several
places all around the door. If the paper feels loose, the gasket is not sealing. Contact your
dealer or service center.
CAUTION: Do not use undue force or jerking action when opening the refrigera-
tor door. Air temperature differences can cause a partial vacuum within the cabinet
requiring a firm but steady force to open the door. A sudden jerk could cause door
damage or personal injury.
Battery Drain
As indicated, a 12 volt DC source is required for operation on gas to provide features of
automatic ignition. The drain on the battery is very low and has little effect on “battery
run down” unless these switches are left on for long periods of time on a battery with no
means of recharging. The DC voltage should be checked while operating in the DC
mode. The voltage at the refrigerator should never drop below 11.5 volts.
Battery drain should also be considered during times when the refrigerator is stored,
defrosted, or occasions when the door is left open. The humidity heater, if left on, draws
240 milliamps. Because of this small drain, the NORMAL-STORAGE-HIGH HUMIDITY
switch should be set to the STORAGE position.
Except for DC operation (three-way models) it is evident that the 12 volt DC demand is
quite low; nevertheless, the refrigerator should not be operated for long periods of time
from a battery only, without a means of recharging through the alternator or converter.
Controls
CAUTION: Never allow water to be sprayed directly on electrical controls located
behind the inlet vent door. Electrical damage or fires could result.
1. Be attentive when the outer surface is being hosed down to avoid wetting the
refrigerator controls.
2. The user should be aware that 12-volt DC is required during all operating modes
(AC, GAS, DC).
3. This Norcold refrigerator is equipped with electronic ignition (no pilot flame). It
provides automatic gas ignition on start up, automatic re-ignition in case of flame
blowout and electrical signal to warn of flame failure (red X on annuciator panel).
