Microwave Ovens

Refer to the Certified Performance Checkout sheet,
included in your owner's packet, for manufacturer,
model, and serial number information�

Range

There is little difference between the operation of home
gas ranges and the trailer's range� If, however, you are
used to an electric range, operating confidence can be
quickly gained by reading the manufacturer's directions
provided in the owner's packet� Manufacturer's service
and parts manuals are also available�
An operation manual for the range has been
provided with your owner's packet. If this has not
been provided with your trailer, contact the listed
manufacturer to obtain. Their manual contains
specialized warnings and cautions that should be
reviewed prior to operating the appliance.

WARNING

Refrigerator

Your Basecamp is equipped with Nova Kool 2-Way
(12V, 120V) refrigerator� Review all refrigerator
literature supplied in your owner's packet or stored in
the refrigerator prior to operating�

Operation

The refrigerator operates on 12-volt current from the
battery or on 120V shore power� All units are supplied
with a wide range thermostat designed to sense the
evaporator (cold plate) temperature� The coldest
position on the thermostat is reached by turning the
knob to the right (clockwise); conversely turning the
thermostat knob to the left (counterclockwise) yields a
warmer setting� The OFF position is reached by turning
hard counterclockwise past the click� The reference
point is shown with an indicator sticker beside the
knob�

Start up

Turn the power on and set the thermostat between 3
and 4� You can make further adjustments to suit your
personal requirements after the box has cooled down�
Allow the refrigerator to come down to temperature
before loading with product� Adding pre-cooled product
will help keep the temperature stable when loading�
Setting the thermostat to a higher setting e�g�, 7, will
not decrease the time required for the unit to cool down
to its normal operating temperature�

Defrost and Cleaning

The frequency of defrost is dependent on the number
of door openings, the ambient temperature and the
humidity level� Typically, it is a good practice to defrost
once there is ¼ inch of frost buildup on either side of
the evaporator (cold plate)� When defrosting, the unit is
shut off by turning the thermostat counterclockwise to
the OFF (0) position� Prop the door open� We suggest
placing a towel in the bottom of the refrigerator to catch
excess moisture�
Now that the unit has been defrosted, the interior can
be cleaned with a non-abrasive cleaner� Do not use
"Brillo" or "SOS" type abrasive pads, as they will score
the surfaces� Baking soda is recommended�
CAUTION
Speeding up the defrost process with a knife
or scraper is strongly discouraged due to the
likelihood of rupturing the refrigerant circuit.
