Norcold 6063 Install And Operation Instructions page 18

During periods when the refrigerator is not used
(seasonal storage, etc.) the"Normal Operation-Off-
High Humidity switch should be switched to "OFF"..
This disables the 12 volt DC to the "Operating Con-
trol Panel" and the "Normal Operation-Off-High Hu-
midity" switch.
Operation in Transit
While the refrigerator should be level when the ve-
hicle is stopped, performance during transit is not
normally affected.

Leveling
Comfortable vehicle leveling is well within the re-
frigerator's operating requirements of 3 degrees off
level side-to-side and 6 degrees off level front-to-
back (looking at the front of the refrigerator). Con-
tinued operation outside of these limits can result
in irreparable damage to the cooling system.
Freezer Compartment
This compartment is not designed for the quick
freezing of food but designed to retain food in a fro-
zen state. Foods purchased for storage in the freezer
compartment should be frozen when purchased to
reduce the load on the refrigerator system.
IMPORTANT: Ice trays must be placed on the
bottom freezer surface when
making ice.
Water will freeze more rapidly if the thermostat is at
it's coldest setting.
For the double door models, the freezer shelf can
be adjusted or removed to meet your storage needs.
Fresh Food Compartment
The fresh food compartment stores and cools food.
For best cooling performance, air must be free to
circulate within the fresh food compartment. Do not
cover the shelves with paper, plastic, etc.

To reduce frost formation on the cooling fins, cover
liquids and moist foods, do not place hot foods in the
compartment, and do not leave the door open longer
than needed.
Allow the refrigerator to cool for 8 hours before
loading foods. Loading a warm refrigerator with warm
food increases the cool down period.
Defrosting and Cleaning the Refrigerator
Interior
Your refrigerator is not frost free and will require pe-
riodic defrosting. To defrost, turn the refrigerator off.
Empty the freezer and the fresh food compartments.
Placing a pan of hot water in the freezer will reduce
the defrosting time. Leave the drip tray under the
cooling fins. After frost has melted, empty the drip
tray and clean the refrigerator.
Add a small quantity of mild dish detergent to luke-
warm water and wash the interior of the refrigerator.
Do not use abrasive cleansers; they can damage
the interior surfaces of the refrigerator . Rinsing
both compartments in a solution of baking soda and
water (one table spoon of baking soda to one quart
of water) will freshen the interiors and neutralize
odors. Wipe the refrigerator interior dry with a soft
cloth to remove excess moisture and to prevent
water spots. Clean the door gaskets in the same
manner as the refrigerator interior. This will help to
prolong the life of the gaskets.
Door Latch
The refrigerator's built-in door latch prevents the
door from flying open during transit. There are no
chains or slides to remember to actuate when the
vehicle starts moving. Always close the door to the-
closed latched (audible clicks) position to prevent
cooling loss and heavy frost.
