Lighting and Start Up Procedures

WARNING:

DO NOT HOLD GAS VALVE (D) IN MORE THAN 30 SECONDS. IF FLAME IS NOT INDICATED WITHIN THIS TIME, TURN GAS TO OFF, WAIT 2 MINUTES AND RETRY. CONTINUING TO HOLD GAS VALVE IN WILL CAUSE GAS BUILD-UP IN THE BURNER AREA AND CAN RESULT IN AN EXPLOSION WHICH CAN CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

2-Way and 3-Way Models

Lighting Instructions: Gas Operation

1.Make certain that 12 Volts DC is available to the refrigerator and divider switch is in NOR- MAL position.

2.Turn on gas supply at the tank.

3.Set thermostat control (C) to COLDEST setting.

4.Set ignitor switch (A) to "ON" position. The tog- gle light (A) located on the switch will illuminate if 12 volts DC is present.

5.Push and rotate the "ELEC-OFF-GAS" control

(D)counter-clockwise so that "GAS" is visible on the knob. Push the control knob (D) in and

hold until the flame indicator (B) illuminates (continuous glow). Continue to hold approxi- mately 5 seconds, then release. The flame indi- cator (B) will remain on. If not repeat this step.

NOTE: In normal use the flame should ignite within 10 seconds. On initial refrigerator start-up, it may take longer than 10 sec- onds to allow air to be purged from the gas line, as indicated by the flame indica- tor (B) failing to illuminate.

Do not hold gas control valve (D) in more than 30 seconds. See WARNING above.

6.Move thermostat control (C) to desired setting

7.The ignitor switch (A) should be left in the "ON" position during gas operation. If the switch is turned off, the refrigerator will cycle normally. However, in case of flame blowout, the relighter does not function.

Start-Up Instructions: AC Electric Operation

1.Make certain that 120 Volts AC and 12 Volts DC are available to the refrigerator and divider switch is in NORMAL position.

2.Set thermostat control (C) to desired setting.

3.Set ignitor switch (A) to "OFF" position.

4.Push and rotate the "ELEC-OFF-GAS" control

(D)clockwise so that "ELEC" is visible on the knob. Upon release, note that the knob moves toward you, indicating that the control is locked into electric operation.

Start-Up Instructions: DC Electric Opera- tion - 3-Way models

1.Make certain that 12 Volts DC is available to the refrigerator, divider switch is in NOR- MAL position, and "GAS IGNITOR" switch

(A)is "OFF".

2.Set thermostat control (C) to desired setting.

3.Set "AC-STDBY-DC" switch (E) to "DC" posi- tion.

4.Set ignitor switch (A) to "OFF" position.

5.Push and rotate the "ELEC-OFF-GAS" control

(D)clockwise so that "ELEC" is visible on the knob. Upon release, note that the knob moves toward you, indicating that the control is locked into electric operation.

Operation Shut-Down: All Modes

1.Set ignitor switch (A) to "OFF" position.

2.Push and turn "ELEC-OFF-GAS" control (D) to "OFF".

3.For longer periods of shut-down, set NORMAL- STORAGE-HUMIDITY switch to STORAGE.

Operation Note: Use the "ELEC-OFF-GAS" control

(C)to shut off all cooling operation (both Gas and Electric). The "GAS IGNITOR" switch and the "NOR- MAL-STORAGE-HUMIDITY" switch must be shut off independently. The "STDBY" position of the "AC- STDBY-DC" switch (E) can be used to temporarily shut off AC or DC operation.
