REFRIGERATOR (Option)
The refrigerator is available for your folding camping trailer as a convenience option.
Unlike your home refrigerator, the RV refrigerator can be powered by one of three
sources: 120 volt AC, 12 volt DC or LP gas. Another difference from your home
refrigerator is the ability to withstand the many rigors of the road. This includes the day-
in and day-out physical punishment, exposure to outside elements like dust, and dramatic
changes in temperature.
For top performance of your RV refrigerator, it is important to make sure the trailer is
level. When the folding camping trailer is parked, proper positioning to level the refrigera-
tor will happen naturally when the trailer is leveled for comfort with no noticeable sloping
of the floor or walls. When the vehicle is moving, the leveling is not critical because of the
rolling and pitching movement.
Another important requirement to keep your refrigerator at optimum performance, is the
ventilation. The lower vent panel is hinged for access to the controls. The upper vent is
for expelling hot air and gases from the LP burner. These can NOT be altered or restricted
in any way.
Points to Remember
• From time to time, especially if the refrigerator has been out of use for a period, make
sure all air vents are free from obstructions before starting up. Also, check connections
for gas leaks using an approved commercial test leak solution.
• Never cover or partially cover the air vents with cardboard or anything else.
• Remember to level the vehicle when stopping for more than about an hour, otherwise
the cooling unit could be permanently damaged due to overheating if it is left on.
• If possible, start the refrigerator on gas some hours before it is to be used to allow time
for the interior to cool. It is then preferable to load the refrigerator with food which has
been pre-cooled in your household refrigerator, or at the market.
• Before moving the vehicle, make sure that all containers are tightly covered to avoid spills.
If required, crumpled paper may be packed between bottles and other items to prevent
shifting while under way.
• Engage the travel catch at the top of the front corner of the door before moving off.
Operation - N260
CONTROLS
The thermostat (1) changes the
amount of LP gas that goes to the
burner. This acts as the tempera-
ture control of the refrigerator.
Number 5 is the coldest tempera-
ture setting.
NOTE: This is not an automatic
gas control. It does not change the
flame from high fire to low fire as
do some RV refrigerators. If the cooling load changes, you must manually change the gas
control to maintain the same temperature inside the refrigerator.
