Effects of High Altitude on Propane Gas Operation

When you operate the refrigerator on propane gas at altitudes higher than 5500 feet above sea level:
- You may experience reduced cooling performance of the refrigerator.
- You may experience burner outages.
To avoid these possible problems, Norcold recommends that you operate the refrigerator on AC when at altitudes higher than 5500 feet
above sea level.

Effects of Freezing Temperatures on Refrigerator Operation

A gas absorption refrigerator is not designed to operate in freezing temperatures. If the refrigerator is not equipped for low temperature
operation, and if the cooling system of the refrigerator is exposed to temperatures of 32° F. or lower for an extended period of time,
the refrigerator operation may be disrupted. The refrigerator operation will resume when the cooling system of the refrigerator warms
sufficiently.
If the refrigerator is equipped for low temperature operation, the refrigerator will operate in temperatures down to 0° F.
Disrupted operation of the refrigerator, due to extended exposure to temperatures of 32° F. or lower, and any costs incurred to warm the
cooling system of the refrigerator are not covered by the Norcold limited warranty. Please contact your local RV dealer for information
about how to resume refrigerator operation or about how to equip your refrigerator for operation in freezing temperatures.
Do not change the installation or the venting of your refrigerator. Refrigerator failures, which are the result of changes to either the
refrigerator installation or to the venting, are not covered by the Norcold limited warranty.
Ice Maker (N7LXIM and N8LXIM models)
The ice maker is assembled to the refrigerators at the factory as optional equipment. If the refrigerator does not have a factory installed
ice maker, one can not be added to the refrigerator at a later time.
The ice maker is fully automatic and will operate in ambient temperatures as low as 0° F. To allow operation at temperatures between
0° F. and 32° F., the ice maker has a heater on the solenoid water valve and on the water line between the solenoid water valve and the
ice maker.
The water line heater does not protect the water supply line from the vehicle shut off valve to the solenoid
!
CAUTION
water valve on the back of the refrigerator.
When the freezer temperature of the refrigerator is low enough, the ice maker opens the water solenoid valve and fills the mold. The
ice maker ejects the frozen ice into a storage bin. As the storage bin fills, the ice raises the shut-off arm until it turns off the ice maker.
As you use the ice and lower the ice level in the storage bin, the shut-off arm also lowers. This turns the ice maker on and begins the
process of making ice.
