Ice making is accelerated if the thermostat knob
“B”
is turned to the
“MAX”
setting. It is a good
idea to do this a few hours before you require ice.
Be sure to turn the thermostat back to the normal
setting when the ice is formed. Food in the lower
compartment can be frozen if the thermostat is left
on
“MAX”.
D. Defrosting
Shut off the refrigerator by turning knob
“A”
to
“OFF” position. Empty the refrigerator, leaving
the drip tray under the finned evaporator. Leave
the cabinet and freezer doors open. Defrosting
time can be reduced by
filling
the ice
tray
with hot
water and placing it on the freezer shelf. When all
the frost has melted, empty the drip tray and dry
the interior of the refrigerator with a clean cloth.
Replace the drip tray and ice tray. Replace all the
food and set the thermostat to its normal position.
CAUTION
DO NOT use a hot air blower as permanent damage
could result from warping the metal or plastic parts.
DO NOT use a knife, ice pick or other sharp tools to
remove frost from the freezer shelf. They can create
a leak in the ammonia system.
E. Cleaning
To clean the interior lining of the refrigerator, use
lukewarm, weak soda solution. The evaporator,
ice trays and shelves must be cleaned with warm
water only. It is important to always keep the
refrigerator clean.
NEVER USE STRONG CHEMICALS OR
ABRASIVE CLEANING MATERIALS ON ANY
PART OF THE REFRIGERATOR.
7. Shut-off/Storage Procedure
To shut off the refrigerator, turn knob
“A”
to “OFF”
position. If the refrigerator will not be in operation for a
period of weeks, you should empty, defrost and clean
it; and leave the doors ajar. Dry the ice tray and keep it
outside the cabinet.
SECTION C.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
1. Perlodlc maintenance
To keep your Dometic refrigerator operating efficiently
and safely, periodic inspection and cleaning of several
components is recommended once or twice a year.
A.
B.
It is important to keep the area at the back of
the refrigerator clear. Check the lower vent, upper
vent and the area between these openings for any
obstructions such as bird/insect nests, spider
webs, etc. It is important to keep the refrigerator
area free from combustible material, gasoline and
other flammable liquids or vapors.
Check all connections in the LP gas system (at
the back of the refrigerator) for gas leaks. The LP
gas supply must be turned on. Apply a non-
corrosive bubble solution to all LP gas
connections.
WARNING
DO NOT USE A FLAME TO CHECK
FOR GAS LEAKS.
C. Check burner flame for proper appearance. The
flame should be light blue with
no
yellow
at the tip.
