INSTALLATION

GENERAL INSTRUCTION

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

The refrigerators outlined herein have been design cer- tified byA.G.A. underthe ANSI 221.19 Refrigerator Stan- dard for installation in a mobile home or recreational vehicle and are approved by the Canadian Gas Asso- ciation.

The certifications are. however contingent on the instal- lation being made in accordance with the following in- structions as applicable.

In the U.S.A., the installation must conform with:

1.National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1.(latest edition)

2.Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard Title 24 CFR, Part 3280.

3.Recreational Vehicles ANSI Al 19.2.(latest edition).

The unit must be electrically grounded in accordance with the National Electric Code ANSI/NFPA 70-(latest edition) when installed, if an external alternating current electrical source is utilized.

4. Any applicable local code.

In CANADA, the installation must conform with:

1.Current CAN/CGA 8149 Gas Installation Codes

2.Current CSA Standard 2240.4 GAS-EQUIPPED RECREATIONAL VEHICLES AND MOBILE HOUSING .

3.Where a flexible metal connector is used, it must comply with the provisions of the current Standard CANlG.10, METAL CONNECTORS FOR GAS APPLIANCES.

4.Any applicable local code

The unit must be electrically grounded in accordance with the current CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE C22 Parts 1 and 2.

VENTILATION

The installation shall be made in such a manner as to separate the combustion system from the living space of the mobile home or recreational vehicle. Openings forairsupplyorforventing ofcombustion products shall

have a minimum dimension of not less than l/4 inch.

Proper installation requires one lower fresh air intake and one upper exhaust vent. The ventilation kits shown in this instruction manual have been certified for use with the refrigerator models listed in the table. For “Cer- tified Vent System Kits” see page 14. The ventilation kits must be installed and used without modification. An opening toward the outside at floor level in the refrigera- tor compartment must be provided for ventilation of heavier-than-air fuel gases. The lower vent of the rec- ommended kits is provided with proper size openings . The flow of combustion and ventilating air must not be obstructed .

The lower side vent is fitted with a panel, which pro- vides an adequate access opening for ready service- ability of the burner and control manifold of the refrig- erator. This should be centered on the back of the re- frigerator.

GAS CONNECTION

Hook-up to the gas supply line is accomplished at the manual gas valve, which is furnished with a 318” SAE (UNF 5/S’-18) male flare connection. All completed con- nections should be checked for leaks with soapy water.

DO NOT use a flame to check for gas leaks.

The gas supply system must incorporate a pressure regulator to maintain a supply pressure of not more than 11 inches water column.

When testing the gas supply system at test pressures in excess of l/2 psig. the refrigerator and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply prpmg system.

When testing the gas supply system at pressures less than or equal to I/2 psig, the appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its indi- vidual manual shutoff valve.

In case detailed instructions on the installation and con- nection to the gas supply are required, contact your dealer or distributor.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

120 Volts AC Connection

The refrigerator is equipped with a three-prong (ground- ing) plug for your protection against shock hazards and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. DO NOT cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug. The free length of the cord is 2 feet and therefore recommended that the re- ceptacle be located to the right side of the refrigerator (viewed from the rear) and approximately 10 inches from the floor (see FIG. 3). This allows easy access through the vent door. The cord should be routed to avoid direct contact with the burner cover. flue cover or any other components that could damage the cord insulation,
