A) START-UP INSTRUCTIONS
1) 12 volt DC supply must be available for the electronic
control to function.
2) Press the main power ON/OFF button (1) to the
DOWN position.
3) In AUTO mode operaiton, the temperature is con-
trolled by a single temperature setting, on the energy
source selected by the control system. (See Sec. B)
4) In MANUAL mode operation, the refrigerator will run
continuously on the energy source selected by the
control system. (See Sec. C)
NOTE: The food in the lower compartment may be frozen
if the refrigerator is left on in the MANUAL mode.
B) AUTO MODE
1) Press the AUTO/MANUAL mode selector button (2)
to the DOWN position. The AUTO mode indicator
lamp (A) will illuminate.
2) When operating in the AUTO mode, the AUTO mode
indicator lamp (A) will illuminate. The control system
will automatically select between AC and GAS opera-
tion with AC having priority over GAS. If the control
system is operating with AC energy and it then
becomes unavailable, the system will automatically
switch to GAS. As soon as AC becomes available
again the control will switch back to AC operation.
3) If 120 volts AC is not available, the control system will
automatically switch to GAS operation. Within 45
seconds the burner should be ignited and operating
normally. If unsuccessful, the CHECK indicator lamp
(B) will illuminate.
To restart an ignition attempt with the CHECK lamp
illuminated or to clear (turn off) the CHECK lamp,
press the main power ON/OFF button to the OFF and

then ON position. The control system will attempt a
new 45 second ignition sequence.
4) On the initial refrigerator start-up on gas (120 volts AC
is not available), it may take longer than 45 seconds
to allow air to be purged from the gas line. If the
refrigerator has not been used for a long time or the LP
tanks have just been refilled, air may be trapped in the
supply lines. To purge the air from the lines may
require resetting the main power ON/OFF button (1)
three or four times. If repeated attempts fail to start
the LP gas operation, check to make sure that the LP
gas supply tanks are not empty and all manual shutoff
valves in the lines are open. If the problem is still not
corrected, contact a service center for assistance.
NOTE: Do not continue to reset GAS operation if the
CHECK indicator lamp continues to be illuminated
after several tries.
5) If 120 volts AC becomes available while the CHECK
indicator lamp is on, the control system will switch to
120 volt AC operation. The CHECK lamp will not turn
off until the main power ON/OFF button is pressed to
the OFF then ON position.
6) In AUTO mode operation, the temperature is con-
trolled by a single temperature setting.
C) MANUAL MODE
1) When operating in the MANUAL mode, the AUTO
mode indicator lampe (A) will be off, and the refrigera-
tor will run continuously on the energy source se-
lected by the control system.
2) The control system will automatically select between
AC and GAS operation with AC having priority over
GAS. If the control system is operating with AC
energy and it then becomes unavailable, the system
