eXPlOSION HAZARD. Never use an open flame
to check for gas leaks. Failure to heed this warn-
ing could cause an explosion resulting in death or
severe personal injury.
Always use a back up wrench when loosening and
tightening connections.
The gas supply system must incorporate a pressure regulator
to maintain a supply pressure of not more than 11 inches water
column.
When testing the gas supply system at test pressures:
> 1/2 psi
- the refrigerator and its individual shutoff valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system.
≤ 1/2 psi
- the appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-
off valve.
For detailed instructions on the installation and con-
nection to the gas supply, please contact your dealer
or distributor.
testing lp gas safety shut off
The gas safety shut off must be tested after the
refrigerator is connected to LP gas supply.
TO TEST THE GAS SAFETy SHUT OFF, FOLLOW THESE
STEPS:
1.
Turn on the refrigerator and switch to GAS mode.
Check that the GAS indicator dot is illuminated and
the gas flame is lit.
2.
Close the manual gas shut off valve at the back of
the refrigerator.
3.
Wait for approx. 45 seconds. The message
"LP" is displayed (flashing).
4.

any button positions on the control panel.)

Apply a non corrosive commercial bubble solution
to the burner jet orifice. No bubbles should appear at
the opening of the burner jet orifice. The presence of
bubbles indicates a defective gas safety shut off, and
service is required.

If no bubbles were present at the burner jet orifice,
rinse it with fresh water. Be careful not to damage
the burner jet orifice.
8.
Put back the cover.
