  • Page 12 Ventilation - Procedure I Ventilation is necessary for the correct operation of the refrigerator and to increase the life of the refrigerator cooling system. Ventilation allows the natural air flow that is necessary for good refrigeration. Cooler air comes in from the living area of the vehicle through a lower intake vent, goes around the refrigerator coils where it removes the excess heat from the refrigerator components, and goes out into the living area of the vehicle through an upper exhaust vent.
  • Page 13 In addition to the required vents sizes, a fan can be added to increase the refrigerator performance and to decrease the refrigerator current consumption . A fan kit is available through Norcold part distribution network. Refer to Fan Kit Assembly chart on page 12.

    Trouble Shooting - Quick Reference 1. Check for 12 VDC (supply voltage) at rear of the refrigerator. Turn refrigerator ON, operating volt- age is between 10.5 VDC to 32 VDC. 2. Check for voltage (15 VAC-25 VAC) at compres- sor between points A and B. If voltage is not within range, refer to Procedure C on page 5.
