For safety reasons, the refrigerator will attempt to ignite on propane gas within
a specified amount of time. When starting the refrigerator for the first time, after
storage, or after servicing the gas supply system, the propane gas supply lines can
have air in them. Due to the air in the gas supply lines, the refrigerator may not
ignite on propane gas within the specified amount of time. Follow the procedure
on how to remove air from the LP-Gas supply lines.
To remove the air from the propane gas supply lines:
• Make sure the primary LP-Gas valve and any other necessary valves
are open.
• Try lighting the cooktop burners first. The cooktop will quickly purge
air from the main distribution line. When all cooktop burners are lit,
light the Furnace and Water Heater (if equipped) to help purge the
branch supply lines of air.
• After the other LP-Gas appliances are lit, this confirms the air is
purged from the main distribution and branch supply lines to those
appliances. The refrigerator should function on LP-Gas after three or
four attempts.
• Push the ON/OFF button to turn the refrigerator on.
• Press the MODE button until the refrigerator indicates LP. The
refrigerator will start a 30 second trial for ignition during which the
gas safety valve opens and the igniter sparks.
• If the refrigerator fails to light, indicated by F or NO FL (No Flame),
turn the refrigerator off then back on and set to LP mode. If after the
third or fourth attempt the refrigerator fails to light, stop and consult
your local dealer or an authorized Norcold Service Center.
