Before starting the refrigerator, check that all the manual gas valves are in the ON position. DO NOT forget the manual shutoff valve on the rear of the refrigerator. See FIG. 12.

This refrigerator is equipped with a control system, which can automatically select the most suitable energy source which is available, either AC or LP gas operation. The system can be set by the user to be fully automatic, or if desired, LP gas only.

1.A 12 volt DC supply must be available for the electronic control to function. The refrigerator controls will work down to 9.6 volts DC.

2.Press the main power ON/OFF button (1) to the DOWN position.

3.Press the TEMPERATURE SELECTOR button (3) until the lamp at the desired setting is illuminated.

A. AUTO MODE

Press the AUTO mode selector button (2) to the DOWN position. If 120 volts AC is available, the AC mode indicator lamp (A) will illuminate indicating AC operation. If 120 volts AC is not available, the GAS mode indicator lamp (C) will illuminate and the control system will automatically switch to GAS operation.

If the CHECK indicator lamp (D) illuminates and the GAS mode indicator lamp (C) is OFF, the controls have failed to ignite the burner in the GAS mode. GAS operation may be reset by pressing the main power ON/ OFF button (1) to the OFF then ON position. (See GAS MODE.

Press the TEMPERATURE SELECTOR button (3) until the lamp at the desired position is illuminated.

B. GAS MODE

Move the AUTO mode selector button (2) to the UP position. The GAS mode indicator lamp (C) will illumi- nate. After 45 seconds the burner should be ignited and operating normally.

On the initial refrigerator start-up, it may take longer than 45 seconds to allow air to be purged from the gas line. If the gas does not ignite within 45 seconds, the CHECK indicator lamp (D) will illuminate and the GAS mode indicator lamp (C) will go off. To reset when the CHECK indicator lamp (D) is illuminated, press main power ON/OFF button (1) to the OFF then ON position.

NOTE: DO NOT continue to reset GAS operation if the CHECK indicator lamp continues to be illumi- nated after several tries.

Press the TEMPERATURE SELECTOR button (3) until the lamp (E) at the desired position is illuminated.

C. THERMOSTAT

The thermostat on the refrigerator controls both the gas and electric operation, thereby eliminating the necessity of resetting each time a different energy source is employed.

After the initial start-up, the thermostat should be moved from "COLDEST" to the desired temperature setting is usually about mid-setting.

D. TO SHUT OFF THE REFRIGERATOR

The refrigerator may be shut off while in any mode of operation by pressing the main power ON/OFF button

(1)to the UP (OFF) position. This shuts off DC power to the refrigerator, including the interior light; however, the climate control will remain on. See Item 5, Step G on Page 10.

4.DESCRIPTION OF OPERATING MODES

A. AUTO MODE

When operating in the AUTO mode, the AUTO mode indicator lamp (B) will illuminate. The control system will automatically select between AC and GAS operation with AC having priority over GAS. Either the AC indica- tor lamp (A) or the GAS indicator lamp (C) will illuminate depending on the energy source selected by the control system. If the control system is operating with AC energy and it then becomes unavailable, the system will automatically switch to GAS. As soon as AC becomes available again, the control will switch back to AC regardless of the status of GAS operation.
