The temperature is controlled by a thermostat located inside the refrigerator. A light located on
the panel comes on when the refrigerator is "ON". Number "1" is the warmest and number "5" is the
coldest thermostat position. For efficient operation, change the thermostat according to the types
of food stored and the ambient temperature.
If you are not going to use the refrigerator for an extended period of time, put the thermostat to the
"OFF" position (full counterclockwise position).
Protection System
Your refrigerator has an over current protection system in the electronic circuit to prevent damage
to the inverter which may occur due to a reverse polarity connection.
If the refrigerator does not operate and the interior light does not come on, check the fuse, which
is located on the side of the inverter case on the vehicle, and the polarity of the DC power supply. If
the refrigerator still does not operate, another problem can exist in the inverter. Have an authorized
Norcold Service Center check the refrigerator.
CAUTION
!
The refrigerator gets DC power from the vehicle battery system. The battery system also supplies
power to any other DC appliances or accessories of the vehicle.
Refrigerator Care Checklist
Your refrigerator will give you years of trouble-free service if you do these simple checks every three to
six months:
- Keep the food compartment and the freezer clean. See "Cleaning"
- Defrost the refrigerator as necessary. See "Defrosting"
- Make sure the door seals correctly. See "Door Sealing"
- Be aware of any cooling changes that are not because of weather, loading, or thermostat changes.
If changes occur, contact your dealer or authorized Norcold Service Center
- Make sure the air flow, in the lower intake vent and out the upper exhaust vent, is not blocked or
decreased
Defrosting
The freeze plates of the refrigerater operate at below-freezing temperatures and will naturally form
frost from humidity, which is always present in the air. The humidity inside the refrigerator increases:
- with higher outside temperature and humidity
- with the storage of non-sealed fresh foods or warm foods
- with the amount of time that the door(s) are open
- with any air leakage into the refrigerator
It is normal for frost to collect inside the refrigerator. Excess frost decreases the cooling performance
of the refrigerator. Defrost the refrigerator:
- Remove all food from the refrigerator
- Turn the refrigerator off
- Put dry towels inside the refrigerator to help remove the excess water
Do not operate the refrigerator on battery power only. Operation of the
refrigerator directly from the battery will rapidly discharge the battery.
Correctly supply DC power to the refrigerator.
