Removing air from the propane gas supply lines:
For safety reasons, the burner is made to ignite on propane gas within a specified amount of time. When starting the refrigerator for
the first time, after storage, or after replacing propane gas tank, the propane gas supply lines can have air in them. Due to the air in the
gas supply lines, the burner may not ignite on propane gas within the specified amount of time.
To remove the air from the propane gas supply lines:
- Make sure that valve of the propane gas tanks(s) is open.
- Push the ON / OFF button to turn the refrigerator on.
- Push and hold the MODE button until the letters "LP" show in the center display.
- This means that the refrigerator is operating on propane gas.
- If the air in the propane gas supply lines prevents the burner from ignition on propane gas, the fault codes "no" and then "FL"
will appear in the center display and you will hear an alarm sound.
- Push and hold the ON / OFF button for one second and then release to silence the alarm.
- Push the ON / OFF button to turn the refrigerator on.
- The refrigerator will start a 30 second trial for ignition.
- During the 30 second trial for ignition, the refrigerator controls open the gas safety valve and the igniter makes sparks.
- When no fault code shows and only the power indicator remains, this means that the refrigerator is operating on propane gas in the
manual mode.
- At this time, all of the air is removed from the propane gas supply lines and you may select AUTO mode of operation if you
wish.
- Depending on how much air may be in the propane gas supply lines, you may need to repeat the 30 second trial for ignition two or
three times.
- If the burner does not ignite on propane gas after two or three attempts, stop and consult your local dealer or an authorized
Norcold Service Center.

- Push and hold the MODE button until the letters "AU" show in the center display and then release.
- If 120 volts AC is available to the refrigerator:
- The letters "AU" and then "AC" show in the center display.
- After ten seconds, the "AU" and then "AC" go off and only a green power ON light remains.
- This means that the refrigerator is operating on AC electric.
- If 120 volts AC is not available to the refrigerator:
- The letters "AU" and then "AC" show in the center display.
- After five seconds, the "AU" and then "LP" show in the center display.
- After ten seconds, the "AU" and the "LP" go off and only a green power ON light remains.
- This means that the refrigerator is operating on propane gas.
