Temperature control system:
Although the refrigerator is not frost
Backup operating system:
This refrigerator has a backup operating system. The backup operating system allows the refigerator to continue to cool if the temperature sensor of the refrigerator should fail.
If this failure occurs:
-The refrigerator automatically changes to the backup operating system.
-The ON light flashes a fault code. See the “Fault Codes” section of this manual.
-The backup operating system can overfreeze or thaw the contents of the freezer and the fresh food compart- ment.
-Make sure the temperatures of the freezer and the fresh food compartment are satisfactory.
NOTE: If you open the door(s) too often, the tempera- tures inside the freezer and fresh food compart- ment do not become stable. Allow the refrigera- tor to operate for about one hour after each adjustment change before you examine the contents. The number “5” is the coldest temperature setting.
- If the temperature is too warm, push the tempera-
ture switch to the right to raise the temperature setting by one number.
- If the temperature is too cold, push the tempera- ture switch to the left to lower the temperature setting by one number.
-Have the refrigerator serviced by your dealer or an Norcold authorized Service Center as soon as possible.
Operating the Refrigerator Controls
Control panel:
The refrigerator control panel (see Art01560) is between the freezer compartment and the fresh food compartment. A 12 volt DC power supply is necessary for the control functions of the refrigerator to operate. The refrigerator receives DC power from the 12 volt system of the vehicle; either an auxiliary battery, a converter, or the vehicle engine battery.
The selector switch [1] starts and shuts down the refrigerator:
-Push the selector switch to the AUTO position to start the refrigerator in auto mode.
-Push the selector switch to the GAS position to start the refrigerator on propane gas.
The temperature switch [2] controls the temperature adjustment of the freezer and the fresh food compartment. The temperature adjustment that you select does not change if the mode of operation of the refrigerator changes.
-Push the temperature switch to the desired temperature setting.
-The number “5” is the coldest temperature setting. Refer to the “Display Codes” section of this manual.
Automatic mode operation:
When the refrigerator is in AUTO mode, it automatically uses the most efficient energy source that is available for operation. During operation, if a more efficient energy source becomes available, the refrigerator controls change from the current energy source to the more efficient energy source as follows:
-The first choice is AC operation if 120 volts AC is available to the refrigerator.
-The second choice is propane gas operation if 120 volts AC is not available to the refrigerator.
Removing air from the propane gas supply lines:
For safety reasons, the burner is made to ignite on propane gas within a specified amount of time. When starting the refrigerator for the first time, after storage, or after replacing propane gas tank, the propane gas supply lines can have air in them. Due to the air in the gas supply lines, the refrigerator may not ignite on propane gas within the specified amount of time.
To remove the air from the propane gas supply lines:
-Make sure that all of the gas valves are open.
-Push the selector switch to the GAS position and 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 sparks.
