observing moisture.
Whenever your recreational vehicle is stored and not in use BE
SURE to turn switch to the “OFF” position avoiding 12-volt DC
discharge. Failure to do so results in battery drainage. The 300 and
400 series do not have this option.
Battery Drain Information
To control operating functions on several models of refrigerators, a
12-volt DC power source, battery and/or converter are required.
For gas operation .5 amp is required through the power supply to
keep the solenoid open to supply propane gas to the burner as
needed to continue to cool.
Models with a moisture reduction heater (humidity dryer) require an
additional .24 amp. This totals less than 1 amp. The drain at .74
amp is low. However, after three to four days of continuous draw
your battery will be down, closing the solenoid and shutting down
cooling capability, when the battery drops to 11.5 volts DC.
During AC operation, 12-volt DC is required to operate the humidity
heater, the light display, electronic thermostat, and interior light
(when equipped).
Door Seal
To maintain cooling efficiency the door must seal completely on all
four sides along the door gaskets. Frequent frost build up or reduced
cooling are indicators of air leaks around the doors. Place a strip of
paper the size of a dollar bill between the flange and door gasket.
Close the door and pull the paper out. There should be a light
frictional drag indicating proper seal. Should the paper feel loose,
the gasket is not sealing well. Contact your dealer or service center.
Door Latch
A positive or full locking latch is not permitted through codes. Each
latch has a rating by pounds of pressure, yet will prevent the door
from opening during travel.
