INSTALLATION PROCEDURE INSTALLING THE REFRIGERATOR SECURING THE REFRIGERATOR • Make sure the floor is solid and level. It is important to follow the sequence in securing refrigerator in enclosure since failure in doing so can cause leakage between the frame and cabinet. Any space between the counter, storage area or ceiling and top of the refrigerator greater than 1 1/2 inches should be blocked.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE 3. One screw installed in the rear base. RM2451, RM2454, RM2551, RM2554, DM2652, DM2662, DM2663, DM2852, DM2862, DM3862 & NDM1062 Install the screws in the following order: 1. Two screws installed through the front base. (Installation of the lower front strip.) The refrigerator is provided with a lower front strip (shipped as a loose part). Attach the front strip after the refrigerator is set into the cutout opening.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE DRAIN WATER HOSE Drill a hole through flooring. To avoid damage to the hose, the hole must be positioned so that the hose doesn’t touch the boiler casing. Seal around the hose that goes through the drilled hole and ensure that it does not kink when run through the floor. Check to make sure that the supplied hose is long enough in order for the water to drain outside of the vehicle. If not, the installer will have to supply the extra length of hose.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE 9. Put back the cover. 10. Press the ON/OFF button off and then back on. Normal operation of the burner should return. 11. Allow the burner to operate for a minimum of five minutes. 12V DC connection RM2451, RM2551, DM2652 & DM2852: These refrigerator models are not designed for 12V DC operation of the cooling system. However, 12V DC must be supplied to operate the controls.
DOOR MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS REVERSING THE DOOR SWING With screws For all models, except NDR1292, the refrigerators are equipped with hinges that makes it possible to change the direction the door opens by moving the hinges to the opposite side. A special hinge kit must be used in order to change the door swing. For conversion kit number, see APPENDIX A - SPARE PARTS. For additional information, please contact service point or distributor service dept. for assistance.
DOOR MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS Snap in 1 To mount the panel, follow these steps: 1. Open the door 90 degrees. 2. On new refrigerators, the decoration strip are taped inside the door; if installed on the door, remove the door decoration strip (2) by gently pushing the four tabs away with a flat blade screwdriver (1). 3. Insert the vertical edges into the grooves of the door frame (3). 4. Push the panel downwards so that the lower horizontal edge of the panel (4) is fitted into the bottom grove (5). 5.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS REFRIGERATOR OVERVIEW ABSORPTION COOLING SYSTEM MODES OF OPERATION In an absorption refrigerator system, ammonia is liquefied in the finned condenser coil at the top rear of the refrigerator. The liquid ammonia then flows into the evaporator (inside the freezer section) and is exposed to a circulating flow of hydrogen gas, which causes the ammonia to evaporate, creating a cold condition in the freezer.
REFRIGERATOR OVERVIEW DC mode CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM RM2354, RM2454, RM2554 & DM2663 DM2652, DM2662, DM2663, DM2852, DM2862, DM3862, NDM1062 & NDR1292 When operating in DC mode (3-way models only), the DC mode indicator lamp is illuminated and all other lamps are off. To select another operating mode, turn off the DC mode by pressing the DC selector button. The DC lamp is turned off.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE To turn off STARTUP The refrigerator may be shut off while in any mode of operation by pressing the main power ON/OFF button to the OFF position. This shuts off all DC power to the refrigerator, including the interior light. If the refrigerator will not be in operation for a period of weeks, it should be emptied, defrosted, cleaned and the doors left ajar. The ice trays should also be dried and kept outside the cabinet. ! WARNING 6 FIRE HAZARD.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE The following information, “USING THE ICE MAKER”, is only valid for refrigerator model NDM1062 equipped with ice maker. USING THE ICE MAKER How it works Before the ice maker can operate, make sure that the: • Refrigerator is connected to 120 V AC. • Water valve supplying the refrigerator is turned on. • Ice level bail arm is in its fully down position.
STORAGE COMPARTMENTS REFRIGERATOR VOLUME MODEL FROZEN FOOD STORAGE COMPARTMENT This compartment is not designed for deep or quick freezing of food. • To prevent food from drying out, keep it in covered dishes, containers, plastic bags or wrapped in aluminum foil. • Meat or fish, whether raw or prepared, can be stored in the frozen food storage compartment provided they are precooled first in the refrigerator.
STORAGE COMPARTMENTS REMOVING AND REPLACING THE SHELVES 2 1 Slide the wire shelf to the left. The right-hand side of the shelf will come loose. Put a screwdriver into the slot of the shelf lock. Turn the screwdriver counter clockwise. Remove the shelf locks from the wire shelf. 3 4 Lower the right-hand side of the wire shelf and let the left-hand side slide out of the holes in the wall. Insert the ends of the wire shelf on the left-hand side at the desired position.
PRODUCT CARE DEFROSTING Draining the ice maker 1. Shut off the refrigerator by pressing the main power ON/OFF button (OFF position). If the RV is in storage and the refrigerator or the DC power is turned “OFF” there will be no 12V DC present to operate the heat tape; therefore, it will be necessary to drain and dry the ice maker. This will prevent water from freezing in the solenoid valve or becoming stale and producing bad tasting ice.
PRODUCT CARE 9. Turn the gear counterclockwise, when the hold switch closes, the mold assembly will continue to operate through the harvest cycle. During the water fill sequence of the harvest cycle the compressed air will blow out the water trapped in the solenoid valve. 10. Repeat the harvest cycle operation several times. Up to 20 PSIG air pressure can be used to clear the solenoid valve. Damage to solenoid can occur if AC power is applied for more than 20 seconds. 11.
MAINTENANCE & SERVICE ! CAUTION 6 To keep the refrigerator working properly, a qualified service technician should, at least once a year, inspect the connections, the control system, the LP gas pressure and flue baffle. The service and maintenance described in this section is to be performed by service personnel only! ELECTRIC EQUIPMENT Heater If your refrigerator stops cooling, immediately turn the refrigerator off and see a Dometic dealer.
MAINTENANCE & SERVICE 5. Remove the wire and flue baffle from the top of the flue tube. 6. Using a flue brush, clean the flue from the top. Blowing compressed air into the flue will not properly clean soot and scale out of the flue tube. 7. Put back the flue baffle. 8. Clean the burner tube with a brush. Blow out the burner with compressed air. PERIODIC MAINTENANCE Checking the control system Check the control system by connecting/disconnecting the 120V AC power, starting/stopping the engine, etc.
TROUBLESHOOTING If you run into a problem, refer to the troubleshooting table below. Symptom Check/Remedial action The refrigerator has stopped cooling. • Immediately turn the refrigerator off and see a Dometic dealer. Refrigerator or freezer is not cold enough • Is the plug firmly connected to the socket? Is the socket switched on? Check the socket by plugging in another appliance. • Defective fuse? Fit a new fuse. • For refrigerators equipped with thermostat - check if it is properly set.
