-The refrigerator will start a 30 second trial for ignition.

-During the 30 second trial for ignition, the refrigera- tor controls open the gas safety valve and the igniter makes sparks.

-When no fault code shows and only the power indicator remains, this means that the refrigerator is operating on propane gas in the manual mode.

-At this time, all of the air is removed from the propane gas supply lines and you may select AUTO mode of operation if you wish.

-Depending on how much air may be in the propane gas supply lines, you may need to repeat the 30 second trial for ignition two or three times.

-If the burner does not ignite on propane gas after two or three attempts, stop and consult your local dealer or an authorized Norcold Service Center.

Effects of High Altitude on Propane Gas Operation

When you operate the refrigerator on propane gas at altitudes higher than 5500 feet above sea level:

-You may experience reduced cooling performance of the refrigerator.

-You may experience burner outages.

To avoid these possible problems, Norcold recommends that you operate the refrigerator on AC when at altitudes higher than 5500 feet above sea level.
