This appliance is designed for storage of foods, storage of frozen foods, and freezing ice.

Storage Volume

Models - 9162, 9163 = 6.3 cu. ft.

Models - 9182, 9183 = 7.5 cu. ft.

Leveling

Comfortable vehicle leveling is well within the operating requirements of 3 degrees off level side-to-side and 6 degrees off level front-to-back (looking at the front of the refrigerator). Continued operation outside of these limits can result in irreparable damage to the cooling system.

Freezer Compartment

The freezer compartment is not intended for quick freezing of foods. It keeps food frozen. The freezer shelf adjusts or removes to meet your storage needs.

Fresh Food Compartment

The fresh food compartment stores and cools food. For best cooling performance, air must circulate within the fresh food compartment. Do not cover the shelves with paper, plastic, etc.

To reduce frost on the cooling fins, cover liquids and moist foods. Do not place hot foods in the compartment, and do not leave the door open longer than needed.

Allow the refrigerator to cool for 8 hours before loading foods. Loading a warm refrigerator with warm food increases the cool down period.

Defrost and Clean the Interior

Your refrigerator is not frost free. It requires periodic defrosting. To defrost, turn the refrigerator off. Empty the freezer and fresh food compartments. Place a pan of hot tap water in the freezer to reduce the defrosting time. Leave the drip tray under the cooling fins. After frost melts, empty the drip tray and clean the refrigerator.

Add a small quantity of mild dish soap to lukewarm water and wash the interior. Do not use abrasive cleansers; they can damage the refrigerator’s interior surfaces. Rinse both compartments with a solution of baking soda and water (one tablespoon of baking soda to one quart of water) to freshen the interiors and neutralize odors. Wipe with a soft dry cloth to prevent water spots. Clean the door gaskets in the same way as the refrigerator interior.

These models offer a blend of functionality, durability, and innovative technology, ensuring that your food and beverages remain chilled during your travels.

One of the standout features of the Norcold series is their dual cooling system.

This means they can retain the cold even in warmer climates, minimizing the need for frequent energy consumption.

One of the impressive technologies incorporated into this series is the advanced temperature control system. Users can easily set their desired temperature with a simple dial, ensuring food safety and optimal preservation. Additionally, the internal LED lighting provides clear visibility of contents, even in low-light conditions.

Safety is another crucial aspect of Norcold refrigerators. Each model is equipped with a safety shut-off feature that automatically disables the propane system under certain conditions, like a low voltage or excessive heat. This ensures peace of mind when it comes to safety while on the road.

Furthermore, the durability of the Norcold units is noteworthy. With heavy-duty construction and quality materials, these refrigerators are built to withstand the rigors of travel. They are also designed for easy maintenance, with accessible components for hassle-free cleaning and servicing.
