INSTALLATION

GENERAL INSTRUCTION

This appliance is designed for storage of foods and

storage of frozen foods and making ice.

This appliance is certified under the latest edition of

ANSI Z21.19•CSA 1.4 Refrigerators using gas fuel.

The installation must conform with local codes, or in

absence of local codes, the following standards as ap-

plicable.

In the U.S. the installation must conform with:

1. National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54

(latest edition).

2. Recreational Vehicles Code, ANSI A119.2 (latest

edition)

3. Manufactured Home Construction and Safety

Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280.

If an external electrical source is utilized, the refrigera-

tor, when installed, must be electrically grounded in ac-

cordance with local codes or, in the absence of local

codes, the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 - (lat-

est edition).

In CANADA, the installation must conform with:

1. Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code,

CSA B149.1

2. CSA Z240 RV Series, Recreational Vehicles.

3. Current CSA Z240.4, Gas-equipped Recreational

Vehicles and Mobile Housing.

If an external electrical source is utilized, the refrigera-

tor, when installed, must be electrically grounded in ac-

cordance with local codes or, in the absence of local

codes, the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1, Parts

I and II - (latest edition).

VENTILATION

The installation shall be made in such a manner as to

separate the combustion system from the living space

of the mobile home or recreational vehicle. Openings

for air supply or for venting of combustion products shall

have a minimum dimension of not less than 1/4 inch.

Proper installation requires one lower fresh air intake

and one upper exhaust vent. The ventilation kits shown

in this instruction manual have been certified for use

with the refrigerator models listed in the Table.

For “Certified Vent System Kits” see page 15.

The ventilation kits must be installed and used without

modification. An opening toward the outside at floor level

in the refrigerator compartment must be provided for

ventilation of heavier-than-air fuel gases. The lower vent

of the recommended kits is provided with proper size

openings. The flow of combustion and ventilating air must

not be obstructed.

The lower side vent is fitted with a panel, which provides

an adequate access opening for ready serviceability of

the burner and control manifold of the refrigerator. This

should be centered on the back of the refrigerator.

GAS CONNECTION

Hook up to the gas supply line is accomplished at the

manual gas valve, which is furnished with a 3/8" SAE

(UNF 5/8" -18) male flare connection. All completed con-

nections should be checked for leaks with soapy water.

DO NOT use a flame to check for gas leaks.

The gas supply system must incorporate a pressure regu-

lator to maintain a supply pressure of not more than 11

inches water column.

When testing the gas supply system at test pressures in

excess of 1/2 psi, the refrigerator and its individual shutoff

valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping

system.

When testing the gas supply system at pressures less

than or equal to 1/2 psi, the appliance must be isolated

from the gas supply piping system by closing its indi-

vidual manual shutoff valve.

In case detailed instructions on the installation and con-

nection to the gas supply are required, contact your

dealer or distributor.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

120 Volts AC Connection

The refrigerator is equipped with a three-prong (ground-

ing) plug for your protection against shock hazards and

should be plugged directly into a properly grounded

three-prong receptacle. DO NOT cut or remove the

grounding prong from this plug. The free length of the

cord is 2 feet and therefore recommended that the re-

ceptacle be located to the left side of the refrigerator

(viewed from the rear) and approximately 6 inches from

the floor (see FIG. 3). This allows easy access through

the vent door. The cord should be routed to avoid direct

contact with the burner cover, flue cover or any other

components that could damage the cord insulation.
