D. Inspect the flue baffle. It should be reasonably clean

and free of soot. Heavy soot formation indicates im-
proper functioning of the burner. The flue and burner
both require cleaning in the following manner:

1. Unplug the refrigerator power cord from the 120 volt

AC outlet. (See FIG. 3).

2. Disconnect or shut off the 12 volt power to the refrig-

erator.

3. Turn manual shut off valve to OFF. (See FIG. 1).

4. Remove cover from the burner housing. (See FIG. 1).

5. Remove the burner mounting screws and remove the

burner assembly. (See FIG. 16).

6. Remove the wire and the flue baffle from the top of

flue tube. Clean the flue from the top using a flue
brush. Blowing compressed air into the flue will not
properly clean soot and scale out of the flue tube.
Replace the flue baffle.

7. Clean burner tube with a brush. Blow the burner clean

with compressed air.

8. Before removing burner jet, clean burner area of soot

and particles falling from the flue tube. Remove the
burner jet. Soak the jet in wood alcohol and blow it
with compressed air. Reinstall and tighten burner jet.

NOTE: The color of the flame shall be clear blue
over the slots of the burner. (See FIG. 17).

DO NOT use a wire or pin when cleaning the burner
jet as damage can occur to the precision opening.
This could be extremely hazardous.

! WARNING

9. Reinstall burner, being careful that the end of the

burner fits into the slot on the burner bracket. Check
to make sure slots are centered under the flue tube.

10. Check the electrode for proper location and gap.

(See FIG. 18).
