COMPRESSOR FRIDGE/FREEZER
Your Zone RV Expedition is supplied with two fridges, one internally and a second adjacent
the outdoor kitchen.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE & TIPS
Cleaning:
Wash the inside of your fridge with warm water and a mild soap. Never use abrasive or
corrosive cleaning agents, steel wool or scouring sponges. A soft sponge, towel, or soft
brush is recommended. Always keep the inside of the fridge clean and dry. Remove any
condensate water or ice which gathers in or near the tray under the freezer compartment.
Be careful when opening or closing the freezer door if ice has been allowed to accumulate
in this area. Keep the doors of the fridge ajar when the fridge is not in use, to allow fresh
air to circulate inside the fridge compartment.
Defrosting:
Defrosting needs to be carried out when the ice layer reaches a thickness of 5mm. Turn
the fridge power off and move your food and beverages to another cool place. Do not use
any objects to remove the ice or frost, it must be allowed to melt naturally. Once the ice
has melted, dry the inside of the fridge and freezer compartment thoroughly.
Energy Saving Tips:
• Have as much ventilation as possible - the more the better.
• Keep the fridge out of direct sunlight whenever possible.
• Only open the fridge or freezer door when necessary.
• Allow hot food to cool down before placing inside fridge.
• Defrost the fridge as soon as a layer of ice forms.
• Set the fridge to be only as cold as necessary.
Note: Please refer to the product manuals for each specific fridge for further instructions.
