Owner’s Manual 7
Automatic mode operation:
When the refrigerator is in AUTO mode, it automatically uses the most efcient energy source that is available for operation. During
operation, if a more efcient energy source becomes available, the refrigerator controls change from the current energy source to the
more efcient energy source as follows:
- The rst choice is AC operation if 120 volts AC is available to the refrigerator.
- The second choice is propane gas operation if 120 volts AC is not available to the refrigerator.
Removing air from the propane gas supply lines:
For safety reasons, the burner is made to ignite on propane gas within a specied amount of time. When starting the refrigerator for
the rst time, after storage, or after replacing propane gas tank, 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 specied amount of time.
To remove the air from the propane gas supply lines:
- Make sure that all of the gas valves are open.
- Push the selector switch to the GAS position and the refrigerator will start a 30 second trial for ignition.
- During the 30 second trial for ignition, the refrigerator controls open the gas safety valve and the igniter sparks.
- During the 30 second trial for ignition, both the ON and the GAS light show.
- If the ON light [60] and the GAS light [62] both show after 30 seconds, it means that the refrigerator is operating on propane
gas.
- At this time, all of the air is removed from the propane gas supply lines and you may select AUTO mode of operation if
you wish.
- If the air in the propane gas supply lines prevents the burner from igniting on propane gas after 30 seconds the refrigerator
controls close the gas safety valve and the igniter stops sparking.
- Both the ON light and the GAS light ash about once every second.
- Push the selector switch to the OFF position and then to the GAS position and the refrigerator will start a 30 second trial
for ignition.
- Depending on how much air may be in the propane gas supply lines, you may need to repeat the 30 second trial for ignition two or
three times.
- If the burner does not ignite on propane gas after two or three attempts, stop and consult your local dealer or an authorized Norcold
Service Center.
Set the controls to automatic mode operation:
Push the selector switch to the AUTO position.
- If 120 volts AC is available to the regerator, the ON light [3] shows.
- This means that the refrigerator is operating on AC electric.
- If 120 volts AC is not available to the regerator, the ON light and the GAS light both show.
- This means that the refrigerator is operating on propane gas.
If the energy source is interrupted:
- The refrigerator shows a fault code.
- Refer to the “Fault Codes” section of this manual.
