  • Page 17: General Operating Instructions

    Chapter General Operating Instructions Importance of Leveling a Refrigerator The refrigerator must be adjusted to a vertical position in both directions. In an absorption refrigeration 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 circulating flow of hydrogen gas, which causes the ammonia to evaporate, creating a cold condition in the freezer.

To start the refrigerator, turn the thermostat knob E to the maximum setting, #4. 2. Turn button G to “Gas” position, then push B button in first and hold, proceed to push in and hold the D button until you see the needle on the flame sensor C moving from the red into the green area.

CONTROLS – See Fig. #5 for a description of controls Figure. #5 Thermostat The refrigerator cooling temperature is controlled by a thermostat that can be adjusted by turning knob E to different settings to maintain the desired refrigerator temperature.

  • Page 20: How To Use The Refrigerator

    The setting of the thermostat is critical and we recommend it be adjusted to maintain a dry frost on the cooling fins (approx. 38° Fahrenheit or 3° Celsius). Adjust the thermostat knob closer to “Max” (clockwise) when the outside temperature rises. NOTE: When first turning the refrigerator on, move refrigerator controls to maximum, which is the recommended initial setting.
  • Page 21 RIDGE ECTION Inside the refrigerator compartment, the defrost water runs from a collector channel to a drip tray/cup at the rear of the refrigerator where it normally evaporates. If heavy frost has built up on the cooling fins creating a lot of defrost water. Be aware your water reservoir may overflow.
  • Page 22 Shut Down Procedure A. Turn gas valve knob to the “off” position B. If the refrigerator will not be in operation for a period of weeks, it should be emptied, defrosted, cleaned and the doors left open. The ice tray should also be dried and kept outside the cabinet, also turn off gas at the main supply source.
