INTRODUCTION
We are pleased that you have chosen this refrigerator
and hope you will derive much satisfaction from using it,
but first a few well-meant words of advice:
It is important to read through these instructions carefully
before using the refrigerator.
To ensure good refrigeration and economical operation,
the refrigerator must be installed and used as described
in these instructions.
The refrigerator is designed for building-in to leisure
vehicles such as caravans or motorhomes.
The appliance is certified according to the
EU-Gas-Directive 90/396/EEC.
TRANSIT DAMAGE
Inspect the refrigerator for damage. Transit damage must
be reported to whoever is responsible for delivery not
later than seven days after the refrigerator was delivered.
DATA PLATE
Check the data plate, inside the refrigerator, to ensure
that you have received the right model.
The right voltage is 230 volts.
The data plate contains e. g. the following details:
Model designation
Product number
Serial number
Since these details will be needed if you have to contact
service personnel, it is a good idea to make a note of
them here.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CONTROLS
The refrigerator can be run on either 230 V, 12 V or LP
gas. Changing between these modes of operation is car-
ried out by means of the controls of the control panel
shown in fig 3.
Two rocker switches are used to select the electric power
supply, one for 230 V (B) and one for 12 V (A).
Refrigerator temperature is controlled by a thermostat (C)
when the unit runs on 230 V.
The gas supply is turned on/off by means of the knob (D).
It also serves to select one of three differnt gas inputs.
The refrigerator is fitted with a safety device which auto-
matically shuts off the supply of gas if the flame goes out.
The safety device can be opened manually by depressing
knob (D).
In model RM 4201/11, the gas flame is electronically lit,
monitored and relit if necessary. For this the toggle switch
(F) should be on during gas operation.
An indicator lamp in the switch flashes when the automa-
tic igniter attempts to light the burner. Otherwise this lamp
is off.
In model RM 4200/10 a manual piezo-eletric igniter is
used. When the button (G) is pressed, sparks are genera-
ted at the burner.
Inside the refrigerator at bottom left is a sight glass for the
burner. A blue light can be seen through it when the flame
is alight (RM 4200/10).
STARTING THE REFRIGERATOR
CAUTION!
Only use one source of energy at a time.
The position numbers refer to fig. 3.
LP Gas operation
After initial installation, servicing, or changing gas cylin-
ders etc., the gas pipes may contain some air which
should be allowed to escape by briefly turning on the ref-
rigerator or other appliances. This will ensure that the
flame lights immediately.
To start gas operation:
1. Open the shut-off valve of the gas bottle (check that
there is enough gas). Open any on-board shut-off
valve.
2. Check that the switches for mains and 12 V operation
are off.
If you have Model RM 4201/11 proceed as follows:
3. Turn on the gas supply by pressing the (D) knob and
turning it to the position big flame.
4. Throw on switch (E). A light in the switch should now
start to flash, indicating that sparks are being genera-
ted at the burner.
5. Depress the knob (D) of the flame failure device.
6. When the flame lights, the sparking stops automatically
and the switch stops flashing.
7. Keep the (D) button pressed for a further 10 to 15
seconds to active the flame failure device, then release
it.
If you have Model RM 4200/10 proceed as follows:
3. Turn the gas control (D)nto position "MAX".
4. Depress the knob (D) of the flame failure device and
hold it down while depressing the piezoelectric igniter
button (F) several times in quick succession.6. Keep
the (D) buttom pressed for a further 10 to 15
seconds then release it.
5. Check the sight glass that the flame is alight.
6. Keep the knob (D) depressed for a further 10-15
seconds.
7. Release the knob and again check that the flame stays
alight.
The flame can be observed in a wiewing glass inside the
refrigerator at the bottom left (RM 4200/10).
To terminate gas operation, turn knob (D) to l and
(when applicable) set switch (F) to 0.
230 V Operation
Turn off gas or 12 V operation when applicable.
Turn the knob (C) of the thermostat to its highest
(coldest) position.
Set switch (B) to position I. The switch will light up
green when the power supply is connected.
12 V Operation
Only operate your refrigerator on 12 V when the engine of
the vehicle is running - otherwise your battery will soon
be discharged.
If applicable, turn off the gas operation.
Set the 12 V rocker switch (A) to I. The switch will
light up red when the power supply is connected.
WINTER OPERATION
Please check that the ventilation grilles or the flue outlet
are not blocked by snow, leaves etc.
ELECTROLUX ventilation grilles A 1620 (fig 2), can be
fitted with winter covers, model WA 120, to protect the
cooling unit against cold air. The covers may be fitted
when the outside temperature is below approx. 10°C and
should be fitted when the temperature is below the
freezing point.
We suggest that you fit the winter covers also in the case
that the vehicle is laid up during the winter months.
REGULATING THE TEMPERATURE
The position number refers to fig. 3.
It will take a few hours for the refrigerator to reach normal
operating temperature. So we suggest you start it well in
advance of a trip and if possible store it with precooled
foodstuffs.
On 230 V operation the refrigerator is controlled by a
thermostat and the thermostat knob (C) should be set at
3-5. If a lower (colder) temperature is desired, set the
thermostat to a higher figure.
On 12 V operation the refrigerator works continuously.
On LP gas operation the refrigerator temperature is regu-
la-ted by the gas thermostat (E), which should be set at
3-5. If a lower (colder) temperature is desired, set the
thermostat to a higher figure.
