Thetford Norcold 453 - Manual (Page 20)

FAILURE OF REFRIGERATION
Failure of refrigeration does not necessarily indicate
that the cooling system is defective. Other factors
governing its operation must be checked.
If the refrigerator is operating on gas and a loss of
cooling is noticed, switch the refrigerator to AC elec-
tric operation. (See "Operating Instructions on page
13). If the refrigerator has been operating on electric,
switch to gas operation. After the refrigerator has
been switched from one power source to the other
allow several hours to assure the refrigerator is cy-
cling properly. This will help to determine if a compo-
nent failure in the electric or gas control’s is causing
the cooling fault. If no cooling is evident after eight
hours (or overnight), you must contact your dealer or
a Norcold service center to determine the cause of
failure.
Note: Do not attempt to operate the refrig-
erator on DC when analyzing the cooling
unit performance. The DC electric mode of
operation is designed for short periods of
operation only and will not power the cool-
ing unit to its full capabilities.
