REFRIGERATOR OVERVIEW
AUTOMATIC COOLING UNIT CYCLING
SYSTEM AND LOW AMBIENT
CONTROL
The rst automatic frost reduction cooling unit cycle be-
gins 60 hours after turning ON the refrigerator (for best
operational results the refrigerator should be turned on
anytime between 4 and 10 PM), and will last for approxi-
mately 120 minutes. Thereafter, the cycle will automati-
cally repeat every 48 hours as long as the refrigerator
continues to run.
The automatic Low Ambient Control (LAC) ensures trou-
ble-free operation in low ambient temperatures (e.g. be-
low 50° F).
MODES OF OPERATION
The refrigerator is equipped with a control system where
the user can choose to turn the AUTO mode on or off.
AUTO MODE IS TURNED ON
The system is fully automatic which means that it selects
the most suitable energy source available, either 120
VAC or LP gas operation.
TEMPORARY GAS LOCKOUT
When the refrigerator’s temporary gas lockout is connect-
ed, the LP gas operation will automatically be locked out
for a period of 15 minutes when the engine is switched off.
This will prevent LP gas operation e.g. when stopping at
a refueling station.
AUTO MODE IS TURNED OFF (GAS MODE)
The system operates on LP gas only. The control system
activates the ignition system and makes one attempt
to light the burner. Note that the temporary gas lock-
out feature does not work when the AUTO mode is
turned off! Consequently, when parking close to a gaso-
line pump all LP gas appliances vented to the outside of
the vehicle must be turned off. Otherwise gasoline fumes
from gasoline pumps might enter LP gas appliance and
these can then ignite from the burner ame and cause a
re or an explosion.
FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD. While refueling
or parking near a gasoline pump, be sure that
the AUTO mode button on the refrigerator is
turned ON or that all LP gas appliances are shut
OFF. Failure to obey this warning could cause
a re or explosion resulting in death or severe
personal injury.
