Operation Manual

10-13
Refrigerators made by Dometic will be installed.
If the external temperature is high, full refrige-
rating capacity can only be ensured by means
of sufcient ventilation. If necessary, to achieve
better ventilation, the refrigerator’s ventilation
grille can be removed at the caravan.
Methods of operation
The refrigerator can be operated in three ways.
The desired mode of operation is set using the
energy selection switch.
- 12 V operation: electrical supply from the bat-
tery of the base vehicle (ignition lock on),
- 230 V operation: electrical supply from an
external source,
- liquid gas: gas bottles from the caravan.
12 V operation
• Set the energy selection switch to the battery
symbol.
• 12 V operation will only work when the motor
of the base vehicle is running.
• The refrigerator operates without regulating
the thermostat (continuous operation). The-
refore, 12 V operation should only serve to
maintain the temperature that has already
been reached.
• To switch off, turn the energy selection switch
to 0.
230 V operation
• Set the energy selection switch to mains ope-
ration.
• Use the thermostat to regulate the tempera-
ture.
• To switch off, turn the energy selection switch
to 0.
Gas operation
• Set the energy selection switch to gas opera-
tion.
• Open the main shutoff valve on the gas bottle
and the gas shutoff spigot marked “refrigerator”.
10.6 Refrigerator
Turn on the refrigerator at least 12
hours before putting anything in it and,
if possible, store only goods that have
already been cooled.
