1.0INTRODUCTION

You have made an excellent choice in selecting the Dometic Absorption Refrigerator. We are sure that you will be fully satisfied with your new appliance in all respects.

The appliance, which works silently, meets high quality standards and guarantees the efficient utilisation of resources and energy throughout its entire life cycle, during manufacture, in use and when being disposed of.

Before you start to use the appliance, please read the installation and operating instructions carefully.

The refrigerator is designed for installation in leisure vehicles such as caravans or motorcaravans. The appliance has been certified for this application in accordance with EU Gas Directive 90/396/EEC.

2.0FOR YOUR SAFETY

2.1Warning and safety notices

Danger Attention

Never use a naked flame to check the appliance for leaks.

Protect children!

When disposing of the refrigerator, remove all refrigerator doors and leave the storage rack in the refrigerator. This will prevent accidental locking in or suffocation.

If you smell gas:

-close the locking tap of the gas supply and the valve on the cylinder.

-open the windows and leave the room.

-do not switch on anything electrical.

-extinguish naked flames.

Never open the cooling unit; it is under high pressure.

Work on the gas, flue system and electrical components must only be carried out by qualified service personnel.

It is imperative that the operating pressure should correspond to the data given on the model plate of the appliance.

Compare the operating pressure data given on the model plate with the data on the pressure monitor of the liquid gas cylinder.

Liquid gas cylinders may only be changed by qualified personnel.

Gas operation of the appliance is not permitted while travelling on ferries.

Covers ensure electrical safety and must only be removed using a tool.

The appliance must not be exposed to rain.

The refrigerator is not suitable for the proper storage of medications.

2.2Coolant

Ammonia is used as a coolant.

This is a natural compound also used in household cleaning agents (1 litre of Salmiak cleaner contains up to 200g of ammonia - about twice as much as is used in the refrigerator). Sodium chromate is used for corrosion protection (1.8% of the solvent).

In the event of leakage (easily identifiable from the unpleasant odour):

switch off the appliance.

air the room thoroughly.

inform the authorised Customer Service department.

5.2.3Gas operation

The refrigerator should only be operated using liquid gas (propane, butane). Do not use town gas or natural gas.

If the refrigerator is operated during travel using gas, the precautions stipulated by the legislation in the respective country must be taken (in

conformity with the European standard EN 732).

Operating the refrigerator with gas is not permitted during travel in France and Australia.

As a basic rule, operation using gas is prohibited in petrol stations.

1.Open the valve of the gas cylinder

2.Open the shut-off valve to the gas supply.

Proceed to the description that applies to YOUR model.

3. The ignition process is activated automatically, accompanied by a ticking sound; the indicator lamp (D) will flash. Upon successful ignition, the sound and the flashing will stop.

4. Keep rotary switch "B" depressed for another 10-15 seconds, then release.

5. If the flame goes out, the ignition system will repeat the ignition process automatically. 6. Adjust the temperature in the main refrigerator compartment using rotary switch "B".

All refrigerators, whether manual or automatic ignition, are equipped with automatic flame protection, which automatically cuts off the supply of gas approximately 30 seconds after the flame goes out.

When using for the first time, and after changing the gas cylinder, the gas pipes may contain air. By means of brief operation of the refrigerator and any other gas appliances (e.g. cookers), air is removed from the gas pipes. The gas will then ignite without delay.

5.2.4Temperature setting cooling compartment

B

middle position

As already shown, with rotary knob (B) the temperature in the cooling compartment can be regulated as necessary.

The cooling unit’s performance is influenced by ambient temperatures.

At ambient temperatures of +15°C up to 25°C, set the knob B to the

TIP middle position. The cooling unit works with optimal performance.

5.3Defrosting

As time goes by, frost builds up on the fins.

When the layer of frost is about 3mm thick, the refrigerator should be defrosted.

1.Switch off the refrigerator, as described in Section 5.3 - "Switching off".

2.Remove the ice cube tray and food.

3.Leave the refrigerator door open.

4.After defrosting (freezer compartment and fins free of frost), wipe the cabinet dry with a cloth.

5.Use a cloth to mop up the water from the freezer compartment.

6.Switch the refrigerator back on again.

The layer of ice must never be removed forcibly, nor may defrosting be accelerated using a heat source.

Note:

Water thawing in the main compartment of the refrigerator runs into an appropriate container at the back of the refrigerator. From there, the water evaporates.

5.4Storing food

Always store food in sealed containers, aluminium foil or similar.

Never put hot food into the refrigerator; always let it cool first.

Products that could emit volatile, flammable gases must not be stored in the refrigerator.

Store quickly perishable foods directly next to the cooling fins.

The freezer compartment is suitable for making ice cubes and for short-term storage of frozen food.It is not suitable as a means of freezing foods.

5.5Making ice cubes

Ice cubes are best frozen overnight. At night, the refrigerator has less work to do and the unit has more reserves.

1. Fill the ice cube tray with drinking water.

Only use drinking water!

2.Place the ice cube tray in the freezer compartment.
