tion turn on the hot water faucet at the galley sink .

Read the operating instructions furnished in your
Owner's Information Package . Before operating
the refrigerator when the motor home is parked,
make sure it is level . If it is not level, the refriger-
ant will not circulate, cooling action will stop, and
the refrigeration system may be damaged .
The refrigerator uses the absorption principle of
operation . If you plan to cool food or drinks in high
outside temperatures, precool the food, and, if pos-
sible, park the motor home with the refrigerator
vent door in the shade . Once the interior of the
refrigerator is cool, the refrigeration system will
usually maintain this temperature . If the inside of
the refrigerator is hot, the food is not precooled,
and the outside temperature is high, it will take lon-
ger for your food to be cooled .
(If equipped)
furnace
The furnace is a forced-air unit fueled by Propane .
