Gas Operation - Dometic RML 8330 UL Operating Instructions Manual

4.3.2 Gas operation (Liquid gas)
Appliances with Piezo igniter/battery igniter
The refrigerator must be operated using
propane gas (no natural gas or town
gas). When using LPG gas, please
consider that the burner needs cleaning at
shorter intervals due to the gas combustion
method (2-3 times per year recommended).
For physical reasons, gas ignition faults
could occur starting from an altitude above
sea level of approx. 3280 ft. / 1000 m (No
malfunction!)
On the initial refrigerator start-up or after a
cylinder change, air may be trapped in the
gas line. To purge the air from the lines,
switch on the refrigerator and any other gas
appliances (e.g. stove) for a short time. The
gas ignites without delay.
Prior to starting the refrigerator in gas
mode :
Open the gas cylinder valve.
Open the shut-off valve for gas supply to
the refrigerator.

3. Activate Piezo ignition (3) several times at
intervals 1-2 seconds.
4. Once the flame ignites, the pointer of galva-
nometer (4) begins moving into the green
range. The refrigerator is operational. Keep
knob (2) depressed for approx. 15 seconds
and finally release it.
WARNING!
As a basic rule, gas operation is prohibi-
ted in petrol stations!
All refrigerators with manual ignition are equip-
ped with an automatic flame safety valve
which interrupts the gas supply automatically
after approx. 30 seconds when the flame has
extinguished.
