Ignition and Start Up
Before ignition or start up of the refrigerator:
- Make sure the air flow in the lower intake vent, through the refrigerator coils and condenser, and out the upper exhaust vent is not
blocked or decreased.
- Make sure there are no combustible materials in or around the refrigerator.
NOTE: If the gas does not ignite in 30 seconds, the gas safety valve of the refrigerator automatically closes. The controls either
select a different energy source or “no” “FL” appears in the center display and you will hear an alarm sound. This means
that the gas did not ignite.
If the gas does not ignite after several attempts, refer to the
“Fault Codes” section of this manual.
Set the controls to automatic mode operation:
- Push the ON / OFF button [30] to turn the refrigerator on
(See Art01809 and Art01811).
- Push and hold the MODE button [31] until a red triangle
shows under the mode symbol and then release.
- If 120 volts AC is available to the refrigerator:
- A second red triangle shows under the
electric plug part of the mode indicator [186].
- This means that the refrigerator is operating
on AC electric.
- If 120 volts AC is not available to the refrigerator:
- A second red triangle shows under the gas
flame part of the mode indicator [186].
- This means that the refrigerator is operating
on propane gas.
- If neither 120 volts AC nor propane gas is available to the refrigerator:
- The fault codes “no” “AC” and then “no” “FL” show in the center display [33] of the LCD and an audible alarm sounds.
If an energy source is available to the refrigerator, but is not operating correctly:
- A fault code shows in the center display [33].
- The refrigerator controls try to change to a less efficient energy source.
- If a less efficient energy source is not available:
- An audible alarm starts.
- A fault code shows in the center display.
- Refer to the “Fault Codes” section of this manual.
