Extreme Cold Weather Operation; Operating The Ice Maker; Climate Control System - Dometic RM2351 Operating Instructions Manual

EXTREME COLD WEATHER
OPERATION
Refrigerator performance may be reduced in extremely
cold (subzero) temperatures. This temporary condition
is
normal for absorption refrigerators and does not indicate
product failure. ln 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.
CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
NDM1062
During
the
summer months
of
high temperature
and
humidity,
the metal frame
between
the
freezer
and
fresh
food compartments may have water droplets forming. The
numberof water droplets will increase
if
the vehicle
is
not air
conditioned during
these
months.
The
refrigerator comes
standard with a
12
VDC climate control
that
will evaporate
the water droplets when they form. The climate control can
be left
on continuously or used only when
temperatures
require it. Note that when turned on, the climate
control
will draw 12VDC power
continuously. Turn it off when
a
charging source is not available.
[g 1. Turn the climate control switch to
I
(ON).
2.
Press the CLC button. The indicator lamp will
illuminate.
OPERATING THE ICE MAKER
NDM1062 WITH ICE MAKER
Before the ice maker can operate, make sure that:
.
The refrigerator
is connected
to
120
VAC
.
. The water valve supplying
the refrigerator
is turned on.
.
The ice level bail arm is in
its
fully down position.

When the ice
makerthermostat
senses the
presettempera-
ture for the
ejection of
the
ice
cubes,
the
fingers will start
to
rotate, dumping any
ice
cubes
and
filling the
mold
with water.
When
the
storage container is full,
the
bail arm
will
come
in contact
with the ice
cubes. The bail arm cannot
return
to the full down position and the ice production is stopped
untilthe
bin
is
emptied, or ice cubes are removed.
To
prevent water from splashing out
of
the mold assembly
while travelling in your
recreational vehicle, raise
the
bail
arm
to the full
UP/OFF
position aboul l-112
hours before
departing. This will
allow
the water in the mold to freeze.
WATER SUPPLY
The water supply system must have a minimum pressure
of
15
pounds per
square
inch gauge (psig).
4114"
diame-
ter water
line to
the water valve should be used at the rear
of the
refrigerator. The water line must have
a
manual
shutoff
valve placed where
it is easily accessible.
The
maximum water level is represented by
a
thin line. lt
is essential that the
water
level
does
not exceed
this
line!
lf
necessary,change the water
flow
by adjusting the
water
supply. For instructions,
see
ADJUSTING THE SIZE
OF
CUBES.
The Climate control
switch is located be-
neath the top decora-
tion
panel that
houses
the control panel.
