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 gas pressure is 30 mbar.

The right voltage is 230 volts.

The data plate contains e. g. the following details:

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

CONTROLS

The refrigerator can be run on either 230 V, 12 V or LP gas. Changing between these modes of operation is carried 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). When lighting the gas, one must press in the knob as explained further on.

Refrigerator temperature is controlled by a thermostat (E) when the refrigerator runs on LP gas. Please note that the thermostat has no ``off'' position.

In model RM 4271, 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 automatic igniter attempts to light the burner. Otherwise this lamp is off.

In model RM 4270 a manual piezo-eletric igniter is used. When the button (G) is pressed, sparks are generated 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 4270)

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 cylinders etc., the gas pipes may contain some air which should be allowed to escape by briefly turning on the refrigerator 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 4271 proceed as follows:

3.Turn on the gas supply by pressing the (D) knob and turning it to the position

4.Set the thermostat knob (E) to the highest setting.

5.Depress switch (F). A light in the switch should now start to flash, indicating that sparks are being generated at the burner.

6.Press the (D) button. This opens the flame failure device and allows gas to flow to the burner.

7.When the flame lights, the sparking stops automatically and the switch stops flashing.

8.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 4270 proceed as follows:

3.Turn on the gas supply by pressing the (D) knob and turning it to the position

4.Set the thermostat knob (E) to the highest setting.

5.Keeping the flame failure device buttom (D) pressed, operate the igniter (G) until the flame lights.

6.Keep the (D) buttom pressed for a further 10 to 15 seconds then release it.

The flame can be observed in a wiewing glass inside the refrigerator at the bottom left (RM4270).

To terminate gas operation, turn knob (D) to ``●'' 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 regulated 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.
