Crisper

The crisper in the bottom of the fresh food compartment, provides storage to preserve fruit and vegetable freshness. Wrap vegetables with strong odors so the odor does not transmit to other foods. Keep the crisper pushed in all the way. IMPORTANT! The crisper is not dishwasher safe.

Door Storage

The door storage areas hold items such as 2-liter bottles, half-gallon milk cartons, pop cans, ketsup bottles, and other commonly used items.

Moisture Reduction Heater

This refrigerator has a heater to prevent moisture from forming on the center divider between the freezer and fresh food compartment doors. The heater starts and stops when the refrigerator is turned On and Off.

Interior Light

The interior light is at the top of the fresh food compartment. The light activates or deactivates when the refrigerator is turned on or off. The light turns on when the fresh food compartment door opens and off when the door closes. If the fresh food compartment door stays open for more than 2 minutes, the light turns off. Close the door (listen for a click) to reset the controls and light.

To replace the light bulb:

Disconnect the 12 VDC from the rear of the refrigerator.

Slide the light cover toward the front of the fresh food compartment and pull it away from the light bracket.

Remove the bulb from the light bracket.

Replace the bulb with a GE #214-2 bulb (use only this replacement bulb which can be pur- chased from most retail automotive centers).

Re-install light cover and reconnect 12 VDC.

Door Handle

The refrigerator door handles use a latch to in- sure complete door closure. The handle has a storage latch to enable the doors to be left partially open to prevent odor build-up during extended shut-down periods.

Improtant! Do not use storage latch as a travel latch. Storage latch allows doors to remain partially open.

To use the storage latch, open the door about 1/2 inch and slide the storage latch into the cut-out on the strike plate.

Caution: Do not replace with a higher wattage bulb. Higher wattage bulbs can damage the inte- rior surface of the fresh food compartment.
