MAJOR APPLIANCES

Refrigerator

Before starting the refrigerator, verify that the main LP gas valve is in the on
position. The refrigerator is equipped with a semi-automatic energy selector
(AES) control system. It can be set to select either 120 volt or LP gas
operation, automatically, if desired.
WARNING
Most LP gas appliances used in recreational vehicles are vented to the outside
of the vehicle. When parked close to a gasoline pump it is possible that the
gasoline fumes could enter this type of appliance and ignite the burner flame
causing a fire or explosion. Use caution when refueling.
A 12 volt power supply must be available for the electronic control panel to
function. The shore line must be plugged in, or the optional generator running,
to operate in the 120 volt mode. The main LP gas valve must be open for
operation in the LP mode. To start the refrigerator, press the main power
ON/OFF button to the ON position.
To use the 2-way Auto Mode, push the AUTO/GAS mode selector into the
ON position. If 120 volt is available, the AC mode indicator light will be
illuminated designating AC operation. If 120 volt is not available, the gas
mode indicator light will be illuminated. The control system will automatically
switch to gas operation. To operate on gas only, push the AUTO/GAS mode
selector until the gas indicator light has lit. After 45 seconds the burner should
be ignited and operating normally. The initial start up may take longer than 45
seconds in order to allow the air to be purged from the gas line. If the gas does
not ignite within 45 seconds, the check indicator light will illuminate and the
gas mode light will go off. If the check indicator light illuminates and the gas
mode indicator light is off, then the controls have failed to ignite the burner in
the gas mode. When the check indicator light is on, press the main power
ON/OFF button to the off position to reset. Do not continue to reset the gas
operation if the check indicator light continues to illuminate after several tries.
The thermostat on the refrigerator controls the gas and electric operation.
This eliminates the necessity of resetting the temperature each time a different
energy source is used. Press the temperature selector button until the light at
the desired setting is illuminated. After the initial start up, the thermostat
