operating instructions
turning off the refrigerator
you can turn off your refrigerator by pressing the main power
ON/OFF button found on the control panel to the off position.
This will shut off all power to the refrigerator, including DC
power to the refrigerator.
If the refrigerator will not be in operation for a period of weeks
or put into winter storage, it should be emptied, defrosted,
cleaned and the doors left ajar. The ice trays should also be
dried and kept outside the cabinet.

food storage compartment
•
Cool the refrigerator before placing any food inside.
•
The food storage compartment is completely closed and
unventilated, which is necessary to maintain the required low
temperature for food storage. Consequently, foods
having a strong odor or those that absorb odors easily should
be covered.
•
Vegetables, salads etc. should be covered to retain their crisp-
ness.
•
The coldest positions in the refrigerator are under the
cooling fins and at the bottom of the refrigerator. The warmer
areas are on the upper door shelves. This should be consid-
ered when placing different types of food in the refrigerator.
•
Arrange all food in the unit to allow for free air circulation.
Do not overpack because a stuffed refrigerator must work
harder and will have higher cabinet temperatures.
•
Never put hot food or drinks into the refrigerator - cool
them first.
•
Do not leave the unit's door open any longer than necessary.
This will reduce frost formation and increase the efficiency
of the refrigerator.
frozen food storage
compartment
This compartment is not designed for deep or quick freezing
of food. To prevent food from drying out, keep it in covered
dishes, containers, plastic bags or wrapped in aluminum
foil.
•
Quick frozen soft fruits and ice cream should be placed in the
coldest part of the compartment, which is at the bottom of the
aluminum liner.
•
Frozen vegetables, may be stored in any part of the compart-
ment.
If your RV is being put into winter storage, it is recommended
to either put your RV batteries on a battery charger or turn off
the vehicle's main 12V switch. This will prevent the RV battery
from discharging. (The refrigerator's control system still con-
sumes a few milliamps even if it is turned off.)
•
Meat or fish, whether raw or prepared, can be stored in the
frozen food storage compartment provided they are pre-
cooled first in the refrigerator. They can be stored about three
times longer in the frozen food compartment as compared to
the fresh food compartment.
•
To prevent frost buildup, which can reduce the efficiency,
wipe excess moisture off items being placed in the compart-
ment.
shelves
using the shelf guards
To prevent food product containers from shifting, two sliding
retainer bars are mounted on the shelves. These can be em-
ployed to separate the shelf into smaller sections which will
hold the contents in place. Slide the shelf guards snugly against
food item(s). The "front to back" shelf guard must be in upright
position.
GUARDS IN
UPRIGHT
POSITION
locking the shelves in upright
position
It is possible to arrange the shelves in many ways to fit your
needs. To gain more space, a shelf can be removed and locked
into an upright position at the rear of the refrigerator compart-
ment. Remove the shelf locks as described on the following
page, tilt the shelf (A) and secure with the shelf locks (B).
