INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
HOW TO START THE REFRIGERATOR
Leveling
In the boiler ammonia vapor is distilled from an am-
porator | where it creates cold by evaporating into a |
circulating | flow of hydrogen gas. If the evaporator coil |
is not level the liquid readily accumulates, forming pockets which can impair the gas circulation or even block it, in which case, of course, the cooling will stop. When the recreational vehicle is stationary it must be
leveled to | be | comfortable | to live in. If the refrigerator |
is properly installed, i e | the freezer shelf parallel to | ||
the floor, | the | refrigerator | will then also perform well. |
A dubble level should be placed on the freezer shelf. When the vehicle is on tow, the continuous rolling and pitching movement will not affect the refrigerator as long as the movement passes either side of level, but when the trailer is temporarily parked this sensitivity of the refrigerator should be remembered. So, once more, before you start the refrigerator make sure it is level.
Gas operation with piezo igniter
1.To start the refrigerator turn the knob A to position “GAS”.
2.Turn the thermostat knob B a quarter of a turn from position “OFF”
3.Push the button C to stop and push the button D of the piezo igniter. The pushing has to be repea- ted until the gas is lit at the burner. This can be observed through the reflector E.
4.After the gas is lit keep the button C pushed for
10 seconds. Release the button and check through the reflector that the burner flame stays burning. If not repeat the lighting procedure. To shut off the refrigerator turn the knob A to off position.
NOTE: As soon as the necessary cold temperature in inside the cabinet has been reached, adjust the ther- mostat knob to required setting.
Gas Operation
with automatic reigniter
1.To start the refrigerator turn the knob A to position gas Lamp E comes on.
2.Turn the gas thermostat knob B a quarter of a turn from position “OFF”.
3.Press the button C to stop and keep it depressed. When lamp E goes out wait 15 sec. and release button C. If the lamp comes on again, repeat the procedure. If flame blow out reignition will take place automatically. To shut off the refrigerator turn the knob A to off position.
NOTE: After a replacement of the gas container or a long shut off period the gas line is likely to be filled with air. In such a case the lighting procedure has to be repeated until the air is pushed out of the line and the gas has reached the burner.
Flame Blow Out
If trouble is encountered with the flame blowing out under specially windy conditions, try to avoid the wind blowing against the wall where vent outlets are loca- ted. If the trouble persists, set the thermostat to MAX. This later measure can of course only be temporary such as when the vehicle is on tow, for after a day or so at this setting the foodstuffs in the cabinet will fre- eze.
Electric Operation
1.Check that the attachment plug is correctly con- nected to the mains supply. When the refrigerator
is equipped also for 12 Volts D C operation the low voltage connection is made at the marked termi- nals at the rear of the refrigerator.
2.Turn the knob A to desired position for electric operation.
3.Turn the thermostat knob B a quarter of a turn from position “OFF”. To shut off the refrigerator turn the knob A to off position.
HOW TO USE THE REFRIGERATOR
Food Storage Compartment
The food storage compartment is completely closed and unventilated, which is necessary to maintain the required low temperature for food storage. Conse- quently foods having a strong odor or liable to absorb odors should be covered. Vegetables, salads etc should be covered to retain their crispiness. The col- dest positions in the refrigerator are underneath the cooling evaporator and at the bottom of the refrigera- tor, and the least cold positions are on the upper door shelves. This should be considered when different types of food are placed in the refrigerator. The bottle retainer in the lowest door compartment is divided in two removable parts, see fig.
