6. If the refrigerator fails to work on 230/ 240 V, check:
That the 230 V supply is connected to the
refrigerator.
That the fuse is intact.
If the refrigerator is not cold enough it may be
because:
1. The ventilation is inadequate owing to reduced area
of the ventilation passages (partial blockage of
grilles from wire mesh etc).
2. The evaporator is frosted up.
3. The temperature control setting is incorrect.
4. The gas pressure is incorrect - check the pressure
regulator at the gas container.
5. The ambient temperature is too high.
6. To much food is loaded at one time.
7. The door is not properly closed or the magnetic
sealing strip is defective.
8. More than one source of energy is used at the
same time. If the refrigerator still does not work
properly, call a service technician.
The sealed cooling system must not be ope-
ned, since it contains corroding chemicals
under high presurre.
MAINTENANCE
Inspect the gas hose periodically for cracks or deep
chafing marks. Connections can be tested for leaks
using a soap solution. Do not use a naked flame! If
there is any suspicion of damage, call for a service
technician. The cooling unit behind the refrigerator
should be cleaned with a brush from time to time, but
make sure that the refrigerator is switched off when
doing this. We recommend that a service technician
check the refrigerator once a year.
SOME USEFUL HINTS
Make sure that:
The refrigerator is not operating on 12 V when the
vehicle is parked, otherwise you will drain the car
battery in a short time.
Defrosting is carried out periodically.
The refrigerator is left with the door(s) ajar when it
is not to be used for some time.
Liquids or items with a strong odour are well
packaged.
The ventilation openings are unobstructed.
The door is secured by means of the travel catch
when the caravan is on the move.
Only one mode of operation at a time is used to
run the refrigerator.

LP GAS CONNECTION
The refrigerator is designed for operation on LP gas
of Butane or Propane.The refrigerator is not designed
for operation on town gas or natural gas.
The gas installation should only be carried out by a
person experienced in gas fitting. It is recommended
that the gas pipe feeding the refrigerator is run
underneath the caravan and is so arranged that it is
possible to turn off the supply to all appliances inclu-
ding the refrigerator
when they are not required. The supply pipe should
preferably be of copper. If any other material is used,
it must be of a type approved for use with conti-
nuously operating bottled- gas appliances, and have
threaded compression connections throughout.
PUSH-ON CONNECTIONS MUSTNOT BE USED
(We do not recommend the use of rubber type
flexible tubing for connecting permanently operating
appliances of this type in the United Kingdom). All
