Safety Statements
Do not modify, alter, or equip the refrigerator to the use
of any other fuel (natural gas, butane, etc.). N611v, N811v
refrigerators are designed and equipped for the use of LP
gas–propane gas–only.
Incorrect installation, adjustment, alteration, or maintenance
of the refrigerator can cause personal injury, property
damage, or both.
Do not smoke, light fi res, or create sparks when working on
the propane gas system.
Do not use an open fl ame for leak testing any of the
propane gas system components. Propane gas is highly
fl ammable and explosive.
Always use two wrenches to tighten or loosen LP
gas connections. Damaged connections, piping, and
components create the potential for gas leaks.
All electrical connections and repairs to the refrigerator
must comply with all applicable codes. Refer to the
certifi cation and code requirements section of the N611v,
N811v Installation Manual.
Do not work on live electrical circuits. Turn off AC power
and DC power sources before attempting to remove,
service, or repair any of the refrigerator's electrical or
electronic components.
Do not modify, bypass, or eliminate any of the refrigerator's
electrical components, electronic circuits, or propane gas
system components.
Do not wet or spray liquids on or near electrical
connections or electronic components. Most liquids,
including leak detection solutions, are electrically
conductive and pose the potential for an electric shock
hazard, short electrical components, damage electronic
circuits, and/or ignite a fi re.

Do not use leak test solutions that contain ammonia or
chlorine. Ammonia and chlorine degrade copper and brass
components.
The cooling unit is a sealed system under pressure! Do
not try to repair or recharge the cooling unit. Do not bend,
drop, weld, drill, puncture, saw, or strike the cooling unit.
Handle a leaking cooling unit with extreme caution!
The cooling unit contains ammonia, hydrogen, and sodium
chromate. Ammonia can cause severe skin and eye burns.
Hydrogen is highly fl ammable, can ignite and burns with
an intense fl ame. Certain chromium compounds, such as
sodium chromate, are carcinogenic.
Do not use extension cords. Do not remove the grounding
prong from the refrigerator AC power cord. Do not use a
two prong adapter to connect the refrigerator to the AC
outlet.
Do not over-fuse electrical circuits. Use specifi ed fuses
and AWG wire sizes. The specifi cation section of this
manual provides fuse size information. Refer to the N611v,
N811v Installation Manual for the correct AWG wire size
specifi cations.
Prevent child entrapment! Before disposing of the
refrigerator, remove all doors and fasten all shelves with
retainers.
Some of the refrigerator's metal components have sharp
corners and edges. Wear hand protection, such as cut
resistant gloves, and exercise extreme care when handling
the refrigerator.
Make sure all hardware such as hinges and fasteners
(retaining screws, etc.), are properly fastened.

may result. Standard and accepted safety precautions and
equipment should be used when working on electrical circuits
and handling toxic or fl ammable materials. Safety goggles and
other required protection should be used during any process
that can cause material removal, such as when removing a
leaking cooling unit and cleaning components.
