Owner’s Manual 9
Door sealing:
If the door does not seal correctly, excess frost will collect inside the refrigerator. Make sure the door seals correctly:
- Close the door on a piece of paper that is about the size of a dollar bill (See Art00980).
- Gently pull the paper.
- You should feel a slight drag between the gasket and the cabinet.
- Do this on all four sides of the door.
- If you do not feel a slight drag on the
paper, the door is not sealing correctly.
- Have your dealer or an authorized Norcold Service Center correct the seal of the door.
If the refrigerator does not cool correctly in either AC or DC mode:
- Make sure the power switch / thermostat is not in the OFF position.
- Make sure the power switch / thermostat is at the temperature setting that you wish.
- Make sure that the power source(s) to the refrigerator is serviceable.
- Make sure that the fuse or circuit breaker is intact (See “Over current protection system”)
- Make sure that the refrigerator is correctly installed and that the built in vents are not
blocked.
- Make sure that the ambient temperature is not unusually high (more than 110° F. / 43°
C.) (See “Over heating shut-off device operation”).
- Make sure that the door is closed.
- If the weather is hot, make sure that the door is sealing correctly.
- Make sure that the air circulation inside the refrigerator is not decreased by foods or by shelves that are covered with plastic, paper,
etc.
- Make sure that hot foods were not placed in the fresh food compartment of the refrigerator.
- Make sure that the freezer is defrosted.
After you make these checks, if the refrigerator does not operate, contact your dealer or an authorized Norcold Service Center.
Over heating shut-off device operation:
Operating the refrigerator in high ambient temperatures can over heat the cooling unit and cause premature failure of the compressor
(See the label inside the refrigerator).
To protect the cooling unit from over heating, the refrigerator will automatically shut-off when the temperature of the power module is higher
than 212° F (100° C). The refrigerator will not restart until the temperature of the power module is lower than 176° F. (80° C).
Low voltage protection system:
In order to prevent completely draining the battery, the refrigerator will automatically shut-off when the DC supply voltage becomes too
low. The refrigerator will not restart until the DC supply voltages increases. These shut-off and restart voltage levels are:
12VDC Operation 24 VDC Operation
Shut-off 10.9 VDC Shut-off 23.8 VDC
Restart 12.2 VDC Restart 25.2VDC
If the DC supply voltage is between 17.0 and 23.8 VDC, the refrigerator will not operate.
