Refrigerators
B. The RM2510/RM2610/RM2810 selector switch
should be checked for continuity in the following
manner. Remove all wires from the assembly. For
the DC mode, continuity should exist between
terminals 1 and 1A
and
2 and 2A. For the gas
mode, you should have continuity between 3 and 3A.
For the AC mode, you should have continuity
between 4L and 4A
and
5N and 5A. If you lack
continuity in any mode when making these checks,
the switch is defective and should be replaced.
15C. DC VOLTAGE REQUIREMENTS
For the refrigerator to operate, igniter (gas mode) and
DC volt operation (3-way models only), DC voltage must
be supplied to the terminal block or blocks (2 terminal
blocks on 3-way models) at the rear of the refrigerator.
The operational range is 10.5 to 15 volts DC. Connecting
the refrigerator to an unregulated converter can result in
improper operation of the refrigerator. Check for proper
voltage at the terminal block or blocks at the back of the
refrigerator. If power is outside the operational range,
correct the power supply problem. The power supply to
the refrigerator must be fused. The igniter will draw
about 1 amp at 12 volts DC.
The DC heating element (on 3-Way Models ONLY) will
draw the following amps at 12 volts:
RM2310 10.4 AMPS
RM2410 10.4 AMPS
RM2510 14.6 AMPS
RM2604/2610 17.9 AMPS
RM2804/2810 17.9 AMPS
RM2453 14.6 AMPS
RM2553 14.6 AMPS
The maximum fuse size is as follows:
RM2310 15 AMPS
RM2410 15 AMPS
RM2510 20 AMPS
RM2604/2610 25 AMPS
RM2804/2810 25 AMPS
RM2452 15 AMPS
RM2453 15 AMPS
RM2552 20 AMPS
RM2553 20 AMPS
16C. DC COMPONENTS
SWITCH (BOTTOM MOUNT CONTROLS)
A. The selector switch should be checked for continuity
in the following manner. Remove all wires from the
assembly.
For the DC mode, continuity should exist be-
tween terminals 1 and 1A and 2
and
2A. (3-Way Models
Only)
For the AC mode, you should have continuity
between 4L and 4A and 5N
and
5A. If you lack continuity
in any mode when making these checks, the switch is
defective and should be replaced.

17C. AC VOLTAGE REQUIREMENTS
1) The refrigerator is a 120-volt AC, 60 Hz appliance.
The proper operating range is 100 to 132 volts.
Check the AC volts at the receptacle where the
refrigerator is attached. If voltage drops below 100
volts, cooling efficiency will decrease with voltage
decrease. If voltage is outside of the proper operat-
ing range, correct the power source problem.
