The background lights up when you press the screen
or the MENU button� Settings are automatically saved
after 10 seconds and the control panel reverts back to
standby after 30 seconds of inactivity�
Normal operation of the system will only require a
press of the MENU button to access the settings
menu� On this screen controls are displayed to set the
temperature, turn on shower boost, selecting level 1 or
2 electrical operation, or turning ON gas operation�
For more information on the Alde control panel or for
servicing the system please refer to the supplied Alde
user manual�
NOTE
Prior to setting a heat mode you must first select
electric, gas, or both as the heating method.
NOTE
Follow the instructions provided in your
owner's packet for operation of the control
panel. If warranty service is required, use only
a service location recommended by the furnace
manufacturer or your Airstream dealer.

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.
Refrigerator
Review all refrigerator literature supplied in your
owner's packet or stored in the refrigerator prior to
operating it�
In an absorption refrigerant system, ammonia is
liquefied in the finned condenser coil at the top-rear of
the refrigerator. The liquid ammonia then flows into the
evaporator (inside the freezer section) and is exposed
to a circulating flow of hydrogen gas, which causes the
ammonia to evaporate, creating a cold condition in the
freezer�
The tubing in the evaporator section is specifically
sloped to provide a continuous movement of liquid
ammonia, flowing downward by gravity, through this
section� If the refrigerator is operated out-of-level
when the vehicle is not moving, liquid ammonia will
accumulate in portions of the evaporator tubing� This
will slow the circulation of hydrogen and ammonia gas,
or in severe cases, completely block it, resulting in a
loss of cooling�
Any time the trailer is parked for several hours with
the refrigerator operating, the trailer should be leveled
to prevent the loss of cooling� The trailer needs to be
leveled only so it is comfortable to live in (no noticeable
sloping of floor or walls).
When the trailer is moving, the leveling is not critical,
as the rolling and pitching movement of the trailer will
pass to either side of level, keeping the liquid ammonia
from accumulating in the evaporator tubing�
