Food compartment:
Start up the refrigerator (see “Operating the Refrigerator Controls”)and let it cool for eight hours before loading with food. If the refrigerator does not start to cool down after about two hours, contact your dealer or a Norcold authorized service center.
For the best cooling performance:
-Let air move freely inside the entire food compartment.
-Do not cover the shelves with plastic, paper, etc.
To decrease the amount of ice that collects on the cooling fins:
-Cover all liquids and moist foods.
-Let all hot foods cool before putting them in the refrigerator.
-Do not open the door any longer than necessary.
Freezer compartments:
The freezer compartments are made to keep
NOTE: Do not put other items on the ice tray while the water is freezing. The water freezes more rapidly if the thermo- stat is at the COLDEST position.
Door handles:
During travel, the door latch prevents the door from opening. When closing each door, push the door toward the refrigerator until you hear a “click” sound.
To open each door, pull the handle away from the refrigerator (See Art00990).
During storage, the storage latch prevents the door from completely closing. Use it to prevent odors when the refrigera- tor is stored for an extended period of time.
To operate the storage latch (see Art00991), open each door about 1/2 inch, hold the door handle in the open position, and push the storage latch [55] into the cutout [56] of the strike plate. Do not use the storage latch as a travel latch because the doors will not be fully closed.
Movable door seal:
The movable door seal [134] is located on the left door of the fresh food compartment (See Art01109). It provides the correct seal when both doors of the fresh food compartment are closed. When the left door of the fresh food compartment opens, the movable door seal moves so that it is flat against the edge of the door. To avoid possible damage to the movable door seal, make sure that it is flat against the edge of the door before you close the door
Crispers:
The crispers are located at the bottom left side of the fresh food compartment and supply a storage area to preserve fruit and vegetable freshness. Make sure that you always push the crispers fully in. The glass crisper covers are made so that you can remove them.
