Install the Refrigerator

1. Put the refrigerator in position:
WARNING:
Make sure the combustion seal is not
broken, is completely around the refrigerator mounting
flanges, and is between the mounting flanges and the
wall of the enclosure If the seal is not complete, exhaust
fumes can be present in the living area of the vehicle.
The breathing of exhaust fumes can cause dizziness,
nausea, or in extreme cases, death.
NOTE: Be careful when you put the refrigerator into position.
The refrigerator has vacuum insulating panels on the
top and sides. If punctured, these panels lose
insulation value which decreases the cooling perfor-
mance of the refrigerator. It is not necessary to remove
the protective packaging from the doors of metal door
models to install or operate the refrigerator.
- Make sure that the flue cap is not pushed down against the
top of the flue tube.
- Push the refrigerator into the enclosure so the side trim is
approximately one inch from the wall.
2. Make sure that the side trim pieces [127] are in the correct
position (See Art01649 and Art01650):
- Slide both side trim pieces up or down as necessary so
that the ends of the side trim pieces are fully covered by the
upper and lower trim pieces [40 and 128].
- Pull the left hand side trim piece toward the left as far as it
will go so that there is no gap between the edge of the side
trim piece and the upper and lower trim pieces.
- Pull the right hand side trim piece toward the right as far as
it will go so that there is no gap between the edge of the
side trim piece and the upper and lower trim pieces.
- Push the refrigerator completely into the enclosure.
3. Install the mounting screws and trim:
- Put the upper trim piece [40] onto the front of the refrigerator
(See Art01649).
- Put the four screws [41] through the mounting flange on the
front of the refrigerator and into the enclosure wall.
- Put a cap plug [129] on each of the screw holes in the upper
trim piece on the front of the refrigerator.
WARNING:
Do not omit the lower trim piece. This
piece is part of the combustion seal.
