or LP GAS). The refrigerator will not switch to
the new operating mode until the MODE button
is released.
The TEMP SET (thermostat) button (D) con-
trols the refrigerator and freezer temperature dur-
ing both gas and electric operation. Press and
hold the TEMP SET button to select the desired
temperature setting. The temperature settings are
shown in the form of LED's (A). The illuminated
LED indicates the temperature setting, with
COLD on the left and COLDEST on the right.
The temperature LED turns off after 10 seconds.
Quickly press and release the any button to dis-
play the temperature setting.
Auto Mode
When the AUTO mode is selected, the operat-
ing control automatically selects the energy
source using the following priority scheme:
• When 120 volts AC is available to the refrig-
erator, the AUTO LED and the AC LED will
illuminate, indicating the refrigerator is oper-
ating on AC electric. After 10 seconds, the
AC LED will turn off and only the AUTO
LED will remain illuminated. Press and
quickly release the any button to display the
operating mode.
• If 120 volts AC is not available, the refriger-
ator will switch to gas operation. The AUTO
LED and the LP GAS LED will illuminate.
After 10 seconds, the LP GAS LED will turn
off and only the AUTO LED will remain illu-
minated. Press and quickly release the any
button to display the operating mode.
NOTE: DC electric operation is not as efficient
as LP Gas or AC electric operation. DC
electric should not be used to initially
cool the refrigerator. It should be used
only when the other modes are unavail-
able (for example, while in transit).
During operation in the AUTO mode, when
a higher priority energy source become avail-
able, the operating controls will cease using the
current energy source and will switch to the
higher priority energy source. For example, if
AC electric becomes available while the refrig-
erator is operating in the AUTO LP GAS mode,
the refrigerator will switch to AUTO AC opera-
tion.

If an operating mode is not functional, its
corresponding LED will flash and the refrigera-
tor will attempt to operate in a lower energy pri-
ority source. If a lower energy priority source is
not available, the LED will continue to flash,
and the refrigerator will cease operation until the
energy source is corrected. Refer to the "Diag-
nostic" section of the Norcold operating instruc-
tions in your operator manual binder for
corrective actions.
Manual Mode
Press and hold MODE button until the
AUTO LED disappears and the desired operat-
ing mode is illuminated. Unlike AUTO mode,
the operating mode LED remains illuminated
until an alternate mode is selected. If the energy
source is interrupted while in the MANUAL
mode, the corresponding LED flashes, and the
refrigerator ceases operation until an alternate
energy source is selected or the problem is cor-
rected. Refer to the "Diagnostics" section for
corrective actions.
AUTO and MANUAL Modes -
Gas Operation Only
If gas does not ignite within 30 seconds, the
refrigerator's gas valve automatically closes and
the operating controls select an alternate energy
source (AUTO Mode) or revert to a stand-by
mode in which the LP GAS LED flashes. The
LED continues to flash until the refrigerator is
turned OFF and then ON. If gas does not ignite
after several attempts, check input gas supply, or
consult your dealer or a Norcold authorized ser-
vice center. A different operating mode may be
selected by pressing and holding the MODE but-
ton. The refrigerator will not switch to the new
operating mode until the MODE button is
released.
Backup Operating System ("BOS")
Your refrigerator features a Back-Up Operat-
ing System which provides a means for the
refrigerator to cool in the event of a failure
within the refrigerator's temperature sensing cir-
cuit. When this happens, the TEMP SET LED
flashes and refrigerator switches to the BOS
