Diagnosing Cooling Problems
WARNING:
The refrigerator cooling system is under
pressure. Do not try to repair or to recharge a defec-
tive cooling system. The cooling system contains
sodium chromate. The breathing of certain chromium
compounds can cause cancer. The cooling system
contents can cause severe skin and eye burns, and
can ignite and burn with an intense flame. Do not
bend, drop, weld, move, drill, puncture, or hit the
cooling system.
Make sure the cooling unit has the correct ventilation:
- Make sure that the intake and exhaust vents are not
blocked.
- Make sure that the air flow through the back of the
refrigerator is not decreased or blocked.
- Make sure the ventilation baffle is correctly installed.
Examine the cooling unit for leaks.
- If you smell ammonia, the cooling unit has a leak and
must be replaced.
- If you see a yellow powder or residue anywhere at the
rear of the refrigerator or in the enclosure, the cooling unit
has a leak and must be replaced.
Determine if the cooling problem occurs while operating the
refrigerator on LP gas, AC electric, and DC electric:
- Determine if the selected energy source is operating and
heating correctly:
CAUTION:
Touch only the outside of the
insulation sleeve. During normal operation,
some tubes of the cooling unit are hot. Do not
touch any tubes of the cooling unit.
- Within 20 minutes of starting the refrigerator, touch
the outside of the insulation sleeve.
- The outside of the insulation sleeve should be warm
to the touch.
WARNING:
When cleaning, do not try to remove
the orifice [3] from the orifice adapter [4]. Removal
will damage the orifice and seal of the orifice and can
cause a LP gas leak. Leaking LP gas can ignite or
explode and result in dangerous personal injury or
death. Do not clean the orifice with a pin or other
objects.
- Clean the orifice assembly with air pressure and alcohol
only.
- Using a wrench, assemble the orifice assembly to the
burner.
- Assemble the flare nut to the orifice assembly.
- Examine all of the LP gas connections for leaks.

- If the outside of the insulation sleeve is not warm, the
selected energy source may not be operating
correctly.
- Start up the refrigerator on a different energy source
and repeat the procedure for all energy sources.
- If the outside of the insulation sleeve is warm to the
touch, make sure the unit is cooling correctly.
- Within one hour after starting up the refrigerator,
touch the fins on the inside of the fresh food com-
partment.
- The fins should feel cold to the touch.
- If the fins do not feel cold to the touch after two
hours, the cooling unit is not operating correctly.
- If the cooling problem does not occur when operating on
all energy sources, the problem is not the cooling unit.
- Use the “Troubleshooting Charts” to determine the
cause of the problem.
