Refrigerator (Optional); Not Water Heater (Optional) - Jayco Travel TraiIers 27' Eagle Owner's Manual

REFRIGERATOR
(Optional i n some units)
The refrigerator in your Jayco has been designed by the
manufacturer to work either on 110-volt electricity or L.P.-gas.
NEVER attempt to connect or operate the refrigerator on natural gas.
Please follow the operating instructions supplied by the manufacturer
of the refrigerator.
If the refrigerator is not level, the cooling process will be partially or
totally stopped. For best cooling, level the vehicle and this should
level the refrigerator. Remember it's the refrigerator that must be
leveled, so check the freezer shelf of the refrigerator with a bubble
level.
Installation of small levels on the outside of the trailer make
the leveling operation easier.
HOT WATER HEATER (OpBi~nd in some urmits)
Your new coach may be equipped
with
either a 6-gallon or 10-gallon
hot water heater powered by L.P.-gas.
If hot water is used with discretion, there is always an ample supply.
With controls similar to those on your home water heater, L.P.-gas is
autornaticaIly supplied to heat water to a desired temperature and
then automatically shut off, leaving the pilot burning. A regulated
mixture of 'gas and air is ignited by the pilot to provide a flame which
is directed into the heating tube. The heating assembly is sealed off
from the R.V. interior and vented to the outside atmosphere.
If gas supply to the heater is cut off for any reason or if the pilot is
blown out, all gas supply is automatically cut off and controls will
have to
be
reset to obtain pilot relighting.
