LP GAS REQUIREMENTS
1A. LP GAS REQUIREMENTS
The LP gas pressure to the refrigerator should be 11 inches
water column with half of all BTU’s of the RV turned on. With
all other appliances turned off, the pressure to the refrigerator should not exceed 12 inches water column. To check
the gas pressure when the refrigerator is operating, there
is a pressure test housing located just prior to the orifice.
EST HOUSING
PRESSURE TEST HOUSING
2A. LP GAS COMPONENTS
SHUT-OFF VALVE
It is the valve where the incoming LP gas supply is
attached. This valve is direct coupled to the selector switch.
When the selector switch is turned to the electric mode, the
shut-off valve is automatically closed. When this same
switch is turned to the LP gas mode, the valve opens and
allows gas flow and the electric circuit to the heating
elements is also automatically interrupted. To check the
shut-off valve, remove and inspect for any obstructions.
FLUE BAFFLE
The flue baffle is designed to concentrate the heat, from the
gas flame, at a certain area of the flue tube. It should be
cleaned periodically, at least once a year. To clean, remove
from the flue tube and check for any damage, then clean
thoroughly. See the chart on the next page for dimensions
and position.
BURNER
The burner is a slotted metal tube located below the flue
tube on the cooling unit. It should be level and the slots,
in the burner, should be directly below the flue tube. The
burner should be cleaned periodically, at least once a
year. To clean the burner, remove from the refrigerator
and check for any foreign residue that could cause a
deflection of the gas flow or the flame. Next, soak the
burner in an alcohol based solvent and allow to air dry.
After cleaning, reinstall in the refrigerator.

FLUE CAP (Only on applicable models)
The flue cap is located at the top of
the flue tube and is attached with a
screw. It must be properly attached
or flame outage could occur.
FLUE TUBE
The flue tube is a component of the cooling unit. It must be
cleaned periodically, at least once a year. To clean, remove
flue cap and flue baffle, then cover the burner and clean by
using a flue brush, Dometic Part Number 0151404001. If
the flue tube becomes coated with scale or residue from
combustion of LP gas, the efficiency of gas operation
decreases.
NOTE: After cleaning be sure to reinstall the flue baffle and
flue cap (if equipped).
ORIFICE
The orifice is a small brass fitting that has a ruby membrane
that is laser beam drilled and is mounted on the gas line just
prior to the burner. The orifice should be cleaned periodically, at least once a year, by using an alcohol based
solvent and allowing to air dry. Never use a drill bit or jet tip
cleaner to clean any orifice as these devices will damage
the factory machined part and create a potentially dangerous condition.
The correct size orifice for your model refrigerator, refer to
the TECHNICAL DATA section.
