INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
COLD WEATHER LOW AMBIENT
CONTROL
The refrigerator is equipped with an automatic Low Ambi-
ent Control (LAC) function which allows for trouble-free
operation in low ambient temperature (below 50°F) for
extended periods of time.
EXTREME COLD WEATHER OPERA-
TION
Refrigerator performance may be reduced in extremely
cold (subzero) temperatures. This temporary condition is
normal for absorption refrigerators and does not indicate
product failure. In the event that performance is reduced
in such conditions, turn the refrigerator off. As ambient
temperatures rise, please restart your refrigerator accord-
ing to instructions before requesting service.
TURNING OFF THE REFRIGERATOR,
AND WHEN IT IS NOT IN USE
You can turn off your refrigerator by pressing the main
power ON/OFF button found on the control panel to the
off position. This will shut off all power to the refrigerator,
including DC power.
If the refrigerator will not be in operation for an extended
period of time or put into winter storage, it should be emp-
tied, defrosted, cleaned, and the doors placed in the airing
position. If ice cube trays are in use, they should also be
dried and kept outside the cabinet.
This refrigerator is intended for continuous
use. Do not allow it to run unattended when
there is a risk for loss of electricity or fuel.
Food spoilage could occur.
 T he refrigerator's control system still consumes a
few milliamps even if it is turned off. If your RV is
being put into winter storage, it is recommended to
either put your RV batteries on a battery charger or
turn off the vehicle's main 12 VDC switch. This will
prevent the RV battery from discharging.
