Drain Water Hose; Connections - Dometic RM4601 Installation & Operating Instructions Manual

3. One screw installed in the rear base, see fig.
9. The screw shown on the burner side is an
option. It is not required to properly secure the
refrigerator in the enclosure.

DRAIN WATER HOSE

A hole must be drilled through flooring, see Fig. 10.
The installer has to make sure that the hose does not
kink when run through the floor. Seal around the hose that
goes through the drilled hole.
If a longer hose than supplied is required to get the water
to drain outside of the vehicle, the installer will have to
supply the extra length of hose.

CONNECTIONS

LP GAS CONNECTION
The refrigerator is designed for operation on LP gas.
The refrigerator is not designed for operation on
town gas or natural gas.
The gas supply system must incorporate an approved gas
pressure regulator to maintain a supply pressure of 2.72
kPa. The test point pressure must be 2.72 kPa for Pro-
pane. Check that this is stated on the data plate.
Check that the gas supplied to the refrigerator is at
the correct pressure. See the reducing valve on the
LP gas container.
The gas installation and servicing must be carried out by
an authorized person and conform to all relevant local au-
thorities.

The supply pipe should preferable be of copper. If any oth-
er material is used, it must be of a type approved for use
with continuously operating bottled-gas appliances and
have threaded connections throughout. All connectors etc.
should be of a type specifically designed for the type and
diameter of the connection pipe used, and screwed joints
should be sealed with a joining compound approved for
use with bottled-gas.
The gas supply pipe should be connected to the gas inlet
connection at the rear of the refrigerator by means of a suit-
able threaded coupling. The connection nipple is furnished
with an ISO 7/1 - Rp 1/8 internal pipe thread connection. In
making the connection to the refrigerator, a union gas cock
of an approved type bottled gas must be incorporated in
the supply line in a position that is readily accessible to the
user. For eventual servicing purposes, the union should be
on the outlet side of the cock and the pipework should be
positioned so as not to prevent the refrigerator from being
readily withdrawn. All completed connections should be
checked for leaks with soapy water. DO NOT use an open
flame for detecting leaks!
On completion of installation, the system must be
pressure tested by a qualified technician.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The electrical installation must be carried out by autho-
rized personnel.
For mains voltage operation, it is important that
the circuit to and in the motor home / caravan is
effectively earthed.
The refrigerator is equipped with a three-prong (ground-
ing) plug for your protection against shock hazards and
should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-
prong receptacle. DO NOT cut off or remove the ground-
ing prong from this plug.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified per-
sons in order to avoid a hazard.
230-240V SUPPLIES
Check that the voltage stated on the data plate is the
same as the main voltage in use (230-240V). Plug the
230-240V refrigerator power cord into an easily acces-
sible wall socket.
Electrical leads must be routed and secured so
that they cannot come into contact with hot or
sharp parts of the refrigerator.
The free length of the cord is 2.6 m
and therefore recommended that
the receptacle be located to the
left side of the refrigerator (viewed
from the rear) and approximately
100-150 mm from the floor. This al-
lows easy access through the vent
door.
The cord should be routed to avoid
direct contact with the burner co-
ver, flue cover or any other compo-
nents that could damage the cord
insulation.
