•
•
Do not store or use gasoline, flammable vapors or liquids near this refrigerator. Do not store combustible
materials in back of refrigerator. They create a safety hazard and inhibit air flow, reducing cooling efficiency.
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, servicing or maintenance of this refrigerator can cause personal
injury and property damage. Service and maintenance is to be done by your dealer or a Norcold authorized
service center. Use extreme care when working with or near a propane gas system. Do not smoke or create
sparks. Do not use an open flame to check supply piping and fittings for leaks.

•
Never cut or remove the grounding prong from the AC power cord. Do not use a two-prong adapter or an
extension cord. The 120 volt AC circuit must comply with any applicable local, state, or national codes.
Installation Requirements)
To prevent a possible electrical fire, follow Norcold’s wire and fuse size requirements (See
and applicable state, local, or national

Leveling
Comfortable vehicle leveling is well within the operating requirements of 3 degrees off level side-to-side and 6
degrees off level front-to-back (looking at the front of the refrigerator). Continued operation outside of these limits
can result in irreparable damage to the cooling system.
Freezer Compartment
The freezer compartment is not intended for quick freezing of foods. It keeps food frozen. The freezer shelf adjusts

To reduce frost on the cooling fins, cover liquids and moist foods. Do not place hot foods in the compartment,
and do not leave the door open longer than needed.
Allow the refrigerator to cool for 8 hours before loading foods. Loading a warm refrigerator with warm food
increases the cool down period.
Defrost and Clean the Interior
Your refrigerator is not frost free. It requires periodic defrosting. To defrost, turn the refrigerator off. Empty the
freezer and fresh food compartments. Place a pan of hot tap water in the freezer to reduce the defrosting time.
Leave the drip tray under the cooling fins. After frost melts, empty the drip tray and clean the refrigerator.

Refrigerator Controls and Operating Instructions
A 12 VDC supply is required to maintain the refrigerator’s operating control functions. The refrigerator receives its DC
power from the vehicle’s 12 volt system; either an auxiliary battery, a converter, or the engine battery. The 12 VDC system
supplies power to the refrigerator and to other DC components in the vehicle.
The control panel (between the freezer and fresh food compartments), conveniently locates all refrigerator
functionality. The AC, LP GAS, Battery, and AUTO LED’s (A) light indicating the operating mode.

During operation in AUTO mode, if a higher priority energy source becomes available, the controls stop using
the current energy source and switch to the higher priority energy source. If AC becomes available while the
refrigerator is in AUTO LP GAS mode, the refrigerator switches to AUTO AC operation.
If an operating mode is not functional, its LED flashes and the refrigerator tries to operate in a lower energy priority
source. If a lower energy priority source is not available, the LED continues to flash, and the refrigerator stops operating

controls select an alternate energy source (AUTO Mode) or revert to a stand-by mode where the LP GAS LED

Backup Operating System (BOS)
This refrigerator has a Back-Up Operating System to allow the refrigerator to cool in case of a failure within the
temperature sensing circuit. If this happens, the TEMP SET LED flashes and refrigerator switches to BOS mode.
This mode provides cooling until the refrigerator is serviced. Check refrigerator temperatures when operating in
this mode. If the temperature is too cold, adjust the thermostat to the left in single LED steps. If the temperature
is too warm, adjust the thermostat to the right in single LED steps. Allow the refrigerator to operate at the new
setting for one hour before rechecking the temperatures (frequent door opening prevents the temperatures from
stabilizing). While the refrigerator can operate in this mode, Norcold recommends that you seek service as soon
as practical to restore normal operation.

7. Inspect the flue of refrigerator’s cooling system. This area must be free of foreign materials. Foreign materials observed
in the flue indicate the burner requires cleaning.
8. Insure the area directly behind the refrigerator is not being used for storage. Keep the refrigerator area clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable vapors and liquids.
9. Periodically inspect the ventilation system. The air passage from the bottom intake vent to refrigerator coils and from the
refrigerator coils through the upper exhaust vent must be unobstructed.
10. Inspect combustion seals (visual check without removing the refrigerator). Combustion seals are
attached to the back surfaces of the refrigerator’s mounting flanges and must be continuous between the wall and the
mounting flanges.
11. Periodically inspect door seals.
Refrigerator Storage
When the refrigerator will not be in use for an extended (seasonal) period of time, it is recommended that all power to the
refrigerator be disconnected. Unplug the refrigerator’s AC power cord from the wall receptacle and disconnect the 12 volt
DC supply wires from the refrigerator’s power board located at the rear of the refrigerator. Clean the refrigerator interior and
latch the doors in the storage position. After the extended shut-down period, the burner, burner orifice, and flue must be
inspected before igniting the burner flame. These areas must be free from dust, spider webs, or other obstructions which might
restrict the combustion system.
Refrigerator Removal and Replacement
To remove the refrigerator, disconnect both AC and DC power sources from the refrigerator. Turn off the propane gas at
the main supply tank. Turn the refrigerator’s manual shut-off valve. Disconnect the gas supply piping at the manual shut-off
valve. Remove the mounting screws securing the refrigerator to the enclosure. Remove refrigerator from the enclosure.
Before reinstalling the refrigerator, inspect the areas behind the mounting flanges for damaged or missing seal strips.
These seal strips serve as a combustion seal which isolates the living space of the vehicle from refrigerator’s combustion system.
Reinstall the refrigerator by reversing the above procedures. After reinstalling the refrigerator, check the gas fitting connections for
leaks. Do not check for leaks with an open flame. Use an approved leak-detection solution.

The efficiency of your refrigerator while operating in the

The burner flame efficiency is a function of correct input

A visual check of the burner flame should be made
regularly. The flame should be sharp blue with a stable

Procedure for Cleaning the Cooling System Flue
WARNING Carbon Monoxide can be hazardous to your health. Gas appliances may emit excessive
Carbon Monoxide if the refrigerator’s burner, burner orifice, and the flue tube are not regularly cleaned.
To prevent Carbon Monoxide, the burner, burner orifice, and the cooling system’s flue tube must be
cleaned at least once a year and after all prolonged (seasonal) shut-down periods. Refer to the following
cleaning procedures, or contact a qualified installer, your dealer or a Norcold service center.

2. Turn the refrigerator off.
3. Remove the screws securing the burner

monia will attack brass fittings of the burner and gas valve assemblies. Do not leak test fittings with an
open flame.
