E. CLEANING

Cleaning the refrigerator is usually done after it is defro-

sted or put into storage. To clean the interior of the refri-

gerator, use lukewarm water and a mild dishwashing

detergent. Use only warm water to clean the finned eva-

porator, gaskets, ice trays and shelves. NEVER

use

strong chemicals or abrasives to clean these parts as the

protective surfaces will be damaged. It is important to

always keep the refrigerator clean.

F. SHUTOFF (STORAGE PROCEDURE)

Place the toggle switches for DC and AC operation to

the "OFF" position or turn the gas valve to position

"OFF", as applicable. See FIG. 8.

When not in use, the refrigerator should be emptied, cle-

aned and dried and the door left open so that fresh air

can circulate inside.

The travel latch placed in the second hole will hold the

door ajar and allow air to circulate.

DO NOT store explosive substances in the refrigera-

tor, such as cigarette lighter gas, petrol, ether or the

like.

SECTION D. MAINTENANCE & SERVICE

TIPS FOR THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN

The user should be aware of service that must be done

on a regular schedule to keep the refrigerator operating

properly. The service should only be performed by a

qualified technician who is familiar with LP gas

systems and refrigerators.

1.REFRIGERATOR REMOVAL

Before working on, or removing the refrigerator, make

sure the electrical supply (AC and DC) is turned OFF

before leads are disconnected. Shut off the gas supply.

Disconnect and cap the gas supply line. Loosen the

screws anchoring the refrigerator to the enclosure and

slide the refrigerator out of the compartment.

Replacement is the reverse of removal. Check all

connections for gas leaks.Refer to Section A, Item 1

through 13 of Installation Instructions.

2. PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

To keep a Dometic refrigerator operating efficiently and

safely, periodic inspection and cleaning of several com-

ponents once or twice a year is recommended.

A. It is important to keep the area at the back of the refri-

gerator clean. Check the lower vent, upper vent and

area between these openings for any obstructions

such as bird/insect nests, spider webs, etc. Clean the

coils on the back of the refrigerator. Use a soft brist

led brush to dust off the coils..

NOTE: AVOID SPRAYING WATER THROUGH THE

REFRIGERATOR VENTS WHEN WASHING THE RV.

It is important to keep the refrigerator vent area free

from combustible material, gasoline and other

flammable vapors or liquids.

B. Check all connections in the LP gas system (at the

back of the refrigerator) for gas leaks. The LP gas

supply must be turned on. Apply a noncorrosive

bubble solution to all LP gas connections. The appea

rance of bubbles indicates a leak and should be

repaired immediately by a qualified serviceman

who is familiar with LP gas systems and

refrigerators.

DO NOT USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
