The gas oven and burners
are
operated
with

the
same as
the

A warning label has been located in
the
cooking
area
to
remind you
to
provide
an
adequate supply
of
fresh air
for
combustion. Unlike homes,
the
amount
of
oxygen is limited in an
RV
due
to
the
size and
construction
of
the
vehicle. Proper ventilation
when
using the cooking appliances will prevent the dangers
of
asphyxiation. WARNING: DO NOT
USE
OPEN
FLAMES
TO
WARM THE LIVING AREA. GAS COM-
BUSTION CONSUMES
THE OXYGEN INSIDE THE
MOTOR HOME.

to
escape, and provides a vent for
the
galley area. The

which
requires periodic
cleaning.

the
screen and wash in
soapy water. Rinse
with
water and let
the

home
is
connected
to
115
volt
AC
power
from either a
public
utility
or
the
generator.
Be
sure
that
the

conditioner's
circuit
breaker is
turned
ON. For best performance, park
the
.
motor

the
shade and close curtains. Close
doors and
windows
and turn

REFRIGERATOR
The refrigerator may
be
operated from either
LP
gas
or
12 volt/115
volt
electric power.
Consult
the
operating
instructions
furnished in your
Owner's
Information Kit. Before operating
the
refrigerator when
the
motor
home is parked, make sure
it
is level.
If
it
is
not
level,
the
refrigerant
will
not
circulate, cooling
action
will
stop, and
the
refrigeration system may
be
damaged. .
The
following
chart
provides
information
on
the
cooling
times
required during
hot
summer
weather.
The refrigerator uses
the
absorption principle
of
operation.
If
you plan
to
cool
food
or
drinks in high
outside ambient temperatures, pre-cool
the
food, and
park
the
motor
home
with
the
refrigerator
vent
door
in
the
shade. Once the interior
of
the
refrigerator is
cool, the refrigeration system
will usually maintain this
temperature.
If
the
inside
of
the
refrigerator is hot, the
food is
not
pre-cooled, and
the
outsidde temperature
is high, be prepared
for
cooling
times
as listed in the
chart.
Test conditions
at
gO°F ambient outside temperature, food
at
air temperature, 8 cUbic
