The control panel is located between the

ment. It contains pressure sensitive touch
switches and LED display. The AC, LP GAS,
Battery, and AUTO indicators illuminate to indi-
cate the refrigerator’s operating mode.

On or OFf. If the button is pressed, it will turn
the refrigerator On and set the mode to AUTO.
When the refrigerator is On, pressing this button
for 2 seconds will turn the refrigerator Off.
Pressing and holding the MODE button
allows the user to cycle through the three mode
choices; one AUTO and two manual modes
(AC, LP GAS). The refrigerator will not switch
to the new operating mode until the mode button
is released.
The TEMP SET (thermostat) button controls
the refrigerator and freezer temperature during
both gas and electric operation. Press and hold
the TEMP SET button to select the desired tem-
perature setting. The temperature settings are
shown in the form of numbers 1-9. Quickly press

setting.
Start-Up Instructions - Auto Mode
When the AUTO mode is selected, the oper-
ating control automatically selects the power
source using the following priority scheme:
•
When 120 volts AC is available to the refrig-
erator, the AUTO LED and the AC LED will
illuminate, indicating the refrigerator is oper-
ating on AC electric.After 10 seconds, the
AC LED will turn off and only the AUTO
LED will remain illuminated. Press and
quickly release any button to display the
operating mode.
•
If 120 volts AC is not available, the refriger-
ator will switch to the gas operation. The
AUTO indicator and the LP GAS indicator
will illuminate. After 10 seconds, the LP
GAS indicator will turn off and only the
AUTO indicator will remain illuminated.
Press and quickly release any button to dis-
play the operating mode.
During operation in the AUTO mode, when
a higher priority power source becomes avail-
able, the operating controls will cease using the
current power source and will switch to the
higher priority power source. For example, if
AC electric becomes available while the refrig-
erator is operating in the AUTO LP GAS mode,
the refrigerator will switch to AUTO AC opera-
tion.
If an operating mode is not functional, its
corresponding indicator will flash and the refrig-
erator will attempt to operate in a lower power
priority source. If a lower power priority source
is not available, the indicator will continue to
Push door handle downward and pull to open
refrigerator. Lift freezer handle to open.
