Operation in Transit
During camping or parking, the refrigerator must be level for best
operation. While traveling, the up and down hill movement of the coach,
will not affect the performance of the refrigerator.
Defrosting and Cleaning the Refrigerator Interior
Your refrigerator is not frost free and will require periodic defrosting. To
defrost, turn the refrigerator off. Empty the freezer and the fresh food
compartments. Placing a pan of hot water in the freezer will reduce the
defrosting time. Leave the drip tray under the cooling fins. After frost
has melted, empty the drip tray and clean the refrigerator.
Add a small quantity of mild dish detergent to lukewarm water and wash
the interior of the refrigerator. Do NOT use abrasive cleaners; they
can damage the interior surfaces of the refrigerator. Rinsing both
compartments in a solution of baking soda and water (one tablespoon
of baking soda to one quart of water) will freshen the interior and
neutralize odors. Wipe the interior with a soft dry cloth to prevent water
spots. Clean the door gaskets in the same manner as the refrigerator
interior. This will help to prolong the life of the gaskets.
Numerous different models and sizes of refrigerators are used in
Durango, Sportsmen, and Spree coaches, according to floor models.
See manuals being supplied by the manufacturer for additional
information and operating procedures.
Do not use undue force or jerking action when opening the refrig-
erator door. Air temperature differences can cause a partial vac-
uum within the cabinet requiring a firm but steady force to open the
door. A sudden jerk could cause door damage or personal injury.
