F. No bubble should appear at the opening of the
burner jet. Bubbles indicate
a
defective gas safety
shutoff and service is required.
G. If no bubbles were present at the burner jet, rinse
the orifice with water. Replace the burner cover
plate. Start the refrigerator by following the
instructions for gas operation with piezo ignitor.
See Section B. Operating Instructions, /tern 3,
Gas
Operation.
Normal gas operation should occur.
Allow the burner to

120
volt AC connection
The refrigerator is equipped with a three prong
(grounded) plug for protection against shock hazards
and should be plugged directly into a
properly grounded
three-prong receptacle.
DO NOT
cut off or remove the
grounding prong from this plug. The free length of the
cord is 2 feet and therefore recommended that the
receptacle be located to the left side of the refrigerator
(viewed from the rear) and approximately6
inches from
the floor. (See Fig. 9). This allows easy access through
the vent door. The cord should be routed to avoid
contacting the burner cover, flue cover, or any other
components that could damage the cord insulation.

3-WAY REFRIGERATOR MODEL
The 3-way model has a 12-volt DC terminal block
located under a plastic cover on the back of the
refrigerator for the refrigerator heater. (See Fig. 6)
The refrigerator must be connected by a separate
curcuit to the battery with two wires of adequate
capacity to avoid voltage drop when the 12 volt DC
heater is being operated. The wire gauge should be
chosen with consideration to the length, refer to the
Table below for wire size. The 12 volt DC circuit must
be fused; refer to the Table below for fuse size.
DO
NOT
use the body or chassis of the vehicle as a
substitute for either of the two conductors. DO NOT
connect any other electrical equipment or lighting
to the refrigerator circuit.

CAUTION
DO NOT operate the refrigerator on 12 volt DC when
the
vehicle is parked. The amperage draw of the 12
volt DC heating element can discharge a battery in
a very short time. The installation of a 12 volt DC
operated refrigerator requires a relay to be installed
on the tow vehicle or in the caravan. The relay will
automatically shut off the 12 volt DC power to the
refrigerator when the ignition is turned off. (See Fig.
10).
