5. Release the gas control knob then check that the burner is alight by looking in the flame control tube. If
the burner has not lit, repeat the lighting procedure.
Note:- The refrigerator has a flame failure device which will automatically shut off the gas to the burner if
the flame is blown out- While the knob (4) is being pressed in, this device is temporarily inoperative.
and go out, When this happens, keep the knob (4) held in for a further 15 seconds for the thermocouple
over the burner to heat up, then release the button- If the light in the switch Starts flashing again it
indicates that the flame has gone out. In this case, repeat operation No5.
6. When the burner has lit, leave the igniter switch in the 'On' position, if the flame goes out, due to a gust
of wind for instance, the igniter will then immediately start sparking and re-light the burner.
Note: If the burner does not re-light within about a minute, the flame failure device will operate and shut off
the flow of gas to the burner-The neon light in the switch will still continue to flash, however, to alert you
that something is wrong or that the gas bottle is empty
Emergency Lighting Procedure for Gas Burner
Although the electronic igniter is primarily designed for connection to a 12V car battery, it will operate from
a 9V dry cell. If the recommended car battery connection is not available- the burner can be lit by using a
type PP3, PP7, PP9, or equivalent battery, as used for radios etc. If using this method, '+'and'-' polarity
must be observed otherwise the igniter will not operate.
17.Electric Operation (230V a.c.) Model RM123 only.
IMPORTANT: Before connecting any mains voltage electricity supply to a caravan, always make certain
that the supply has an effective earth connection and that polarity is correct in relation to the, mains
voltage wiring in the caravan. For safety, it is essential, particularly for overseas use, to check for earth
continuity and correct polarity of the connected supply. (There are different makes of proprietary polarity
and Earth Continuity monitors on the market for this purpose).
To start the refrigerator on mains voltage electricity,
see that the gas control knob (4, fig. 14a), the igniter switch (5, fig. 14a), and the 12V supply are off.
Connect the refrigerator to the electricity supply socket and switch on. Turn the electric thermostat dial (6,
fig. 15) so that setting 3 or 4 is against the indicator mark.
Lighting the Burner (Models with Electronic Igniter)
For models fitted with the electronic ignition system follow Item
16 up to point 2 then proceed its follows:-
3. Switch on the electronic igniter switch by pushing in the right-hand end
against the symbol '1'. The light in the switch should start Fleshing,
Indicating that sparking is taking place
4. Turn the gas control knob (4) to the maximum position (No, 3) then
press in this knob end keep it held in
5. When the burner lights, the neon tight in the switch will stop flashing
