FLUE CAP (Only on appli-
cable models)
The flue cap is located at the top of
the flue tube and is attached with a
screw. It must be properly attached
or flame outage could occur.
FLUE TUBE
The flue tube is a component of the cooling unit. It must be
cleaned periodically, at least once a year. To clean, remove
flue cap and flue baffle, then cover the burner and clean by
using a flue brush, Dometic Part Number 0151404001. If
the flue tube becomes coated with scale or residue from
combustion of LP gas, the efficiency of gas operation
decreases.
NOTE: After cleaning be sure to reinstall the flue baffle and
flue cap (if equipped).
ORIFICE
The orifice is a small brass fitting that has a ruby membrane
that is laser beam drilled and is mounted on the gas line just
prior to the burner. The orifice should be cleaned periodi-
cally, at least once a year, by using an alcohol based
solvent and allowing to air dry. Never use a drill bit or jet tip
cleaner to clean any orifice as these devices will damage
the factory machined part and create a potentially danger-
ous condition.
The correct size orifice for your model refrigerator, refer to
the TECHNICAL DATA section.
