Combustion Seals

Combustion seals (foam strips) are attached to the back surface of the refrigerator’s mounting flanges. These seals isolate the products of combustion from the vehicle’s living space. The seals must be con- tinuous between the wall and the mounting flanges to assure a complete combustion seal. When installing or removing the refrigerator, insure that the seals are not missing or damaged.

Lower Flange Installation

The lower mounting flange and mounting screws are located in a clear plastic bag positioned in the coils at the rear of the refrigerator. After removing the plastic bag, slide the refrigerator partially into the en- closure and attach the lower mounting flange. Install the lower mounting flange by maneuvering it under the bottom control cover and secure with the screws provided. Refer to Figure 7. Do not omit installa- tion of the lower mounting flange. This flange is part of the combustion seal.
