OPERATING AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
FOR ELECTROLUX REFRIGERATORS
INTRODUCTION
We are pleased that you have chosen this refrigerator
and hope you will derive muc h satisf action from using it,
but first a few well-meant words of advice:
It is important to read through these instructions carefully before using the refrigerato r.
T o ensur e good refrigeration and economical oper ation,
the refrigerator must be installed and used as described
in these instructions.
The refrigerator is designed for installation in motorhomes.
This refrigerator comes with an
Automatic Energy Selector (AES)
which controls operation and energy supply. To put the
refrigerator in operation, just trip the main switch - AES
manages the rest.
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 refr igerator, to ensure
that you have received the right model.
The data plate contains e. g. the following details:

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CONTROLS
be allowed to escape by briefly turning on the refrigerator
or other appliances. This will ensure that the flame lights
immediately.
If the flame goes out (by gus t of wind et c.), the ignit er is
immediately activ ated and reignites the gas .
Note: The control elect ronics and the igniter m ust have
12 V DC supply to operate.

FIG. 1
This refrigerator is equipped with an Automatic Energy
Selector (AES) which controls its operation and energy
supply.
The system selects the available energy source in the
order:
230-240 V - 12 V - LP gas
No manual operation is necessary for selecting the
energy source.
The control panel is shown in fig.1.
The refrigerator is set into operation by pushing button
(A) (main switch). The AES LED (C) lights green showing: AES system working. Push- button (B) is used for
setting the electronic thermostat. The thermostat LEDs
(D) shows the chosen temperatur e position. When there
is a demand for refrigerat ion, AES will connect the m ost
favour able of the available energy sources.
Note: 12 V must always be available to supply the
electronics.

Gas trouble-s ho ot ing
If the AES LED (C) is flashing red, the system was not
able to start or continue gas operation. Set the switch
(A) to "OFF" and check that there is enough gas in the
gas bottle, that its valve is open and that any valves in
the gas line to the refrigerator are open.
Then push button (A) to "ON" again. After 10 sec. AES
will repeat the ignition sequence. When the AES LED
(C) again starts flashing red after 30 sec., the trouble
persists (air in the line, no gas?). Switch (A) briefly off
and then on again. It might be necessary to repeat this
operation 2-3 times if the tubing contains air (after
changing gas bottles, repairs etc.) .
If this does not help, you should consult a service
technician.
230-240 V Operation
When a mains connection is available, AES will select
this. Please not e, that e ven being in AC mode, 12 V DC
is necessary for the internal supply of the electronics.
12 V Operation
AES will select the 12 V mode of operation only when
the vehicle engine is running (detect ed by the alt ernator
connection of the fridge D+ ).
SWITCHING BETWEEN ENERGY
SOURCES
When switching from one energy source to another,
there are some delays implem ented in the AES s ystem.
The 15 min. delay between switching off the engine and
starting gas mode is intended to delay the starting of gas
mode e.g. when stopping at a filling station.
STARTING THE REFRIGERATOR
All references are to fig. 1.
LP Gas operation
AES will select LP gas operation under the following
conditions:
• No AC (230-240 V) available
• Engine not running (no high current at 12 V DC
available)
• AC available but too low
• Engine running but DC supply too low
(condition three and four are briefly described in
item Undervo ltage op erati on)
When the system chooses LP Gas operation, the flame
failure devic e is automatically opened, allowing the gas
to flow to the burner. At the same time, the electronic
igniter is energized.
After initial installation, servicing, or changing gas cylinders etc., the gas pipes may contain some air that should
WARNING: It is not allowed to have a naked
flame at a gas filling station . If you are not sure,
that your stop is shorter than 15 min., you are
advised to switch off the main switch (A), fig. 1,
when stoppi ng at a fi llin g stat ion .
Undervoltage operation
The AES system is designed to guarant ee the maximum
cooling efficiency under any circumstances. Therefore,
the system monitors cont inuously the voltage level while
being in either 12 V DC or 230-240 V AC mode. If the
voltage is too low, the system switches to Gas mode
shown by the yellow LE D (E in fig. 1.). The system sta ys
in Gas mode, until the electrical supply voltage has
recovered to normal level.
REGULATING THE TEMPERATURE
The position number ref ers to fig.1.
It will take a f ew hours for the r efrigerator to reach normal
operating temperature. So we suggest you start it well
in advance of a trip and if possib le store it with precooled
