THE REFRIGERATOR
Motorhome refrigerators (Image 75.1) are
completely different from the ones you
have inside your home. A motorhome
refrigerator is an absorption refrigerator.
Rather than applying direct cold, heat is
drawn out from the refrigerator. There are
no moving parts, the whole process is
based on chemistry and physics, rather than
mechanics. While effective, there are
limitations inherent to the system.
The average cooling temperature of a
motorhome refrigerator is about 60°
Farenheit (15° Celsius) and it can vary
depending on the outside temperature.
Avoid opening the refrigerator for extended
periods of time as this will warm the
refrigerator and its contents. This can cause
a colling down period of up to 6 hours to
get the temperature back down to 60°.
Each prolonged opening of the refrigerator
door(s) can increase the temperature of the
refrigerator by up to 10° Farenheit (6°
Celsius).

Here are some helpful hints to help keep your perishable food items cold:
1. Pre-cool your food if possible. This gives the unit a break and keeps the
temperatures down inside the refrigerator.
2. Proper refrigeration requires air circulation within the refrigerator. It is essential
that the shelves are not covered with paper or large food items as this will restrict
airflow.
3. Park your motorhome on as much level ground as possible. The refrigerator will
not operate as efficiently if the motorhome is not level.
4. Don't open the door(s) more than necessary.
