Operating the Refrigerator Controls
Control panel:
The refrigerator control panel (See Art01018) is between the
freezer compartment and the fresh food compartment. A 12 volt
DC power supply is necessary for the control functions of the
refrigerator to operate. The refrigerator receives DC power from
the 12 volt system of the vehicle; either an auxiliary battery, a
converter, or the vehicle engine battery.
The ON / OFF button [30] starts and shuts down the refrigerator:
- To turn on the refrigerator, push and release the ON / OFF
button.
- To turn off the refrigerator, push the ON / OFF button for one
second and then release.
The TEMP SET button [32] controls the temperature adjustment
of the freezer and the fresh food compartment. The temperature
adjustment that you select does not change if the operation mode
of the refrigerator changes.
- Push the TEMP SET button and the temperature setting (the
numbers “1-9”) show in the center display [33].
- The number “9” is the coldest temperature setting.
- Push and hold the TEMP SET button and the temperature
setting changes.
- Release the TEMP SET button when the temperature setting
that you wish appears.
- After ten seconds, the temperature setting will go out and
only a green power ON light remains.
The MODE button [31] controls the operation mode of the
refrigerator:
- Push and hold the MODE button and each of the operating
modes of the refrigerator show one at a time in the center
display.
- There is one automatic mode of operation and two
manual modes of operation.
Temperature control system:
Although the refrigerator is not frost -free, it is made to limit frost
on the cooling fins. At regular intervals, the temperature control
system automatically melts most of the frost from the cooling
fins. The water from the cooling fins drains into a collection cup
that is attached to the back of the refrigerator. The heat of the
cooling system evaporates the water from the collection cup.
Backup operating system:
This refrigerator has a backup operating system. The backup
operating system allows the refigerator to continue to cool if the
temperature sensor of the refrigerator should fail.
If this failure occurs:
- The refrigerator automatically changes to the backup
operating system.
- When you push the TEMP SET button, the temperature
setting flashes in the center display for ten seconds.
- The backup operating system can overfreeze or thaw the
contents of the freezer and the fresh food compartment.
- Make sure the temperatures of the freezer and the fresh
food compartment are satisfactory.
NOTE: If you open the door(s) too often, the temperatures
inside the freezer and fresh food compartment
do not become stable. Allow the refrigerator to
operate for about one hour after each adjustment
change before you examine the contents. The
number “9” is the coldest temperature setting.
- If the temperature is too warm, push and hold the
TEMP SET button to raise the temperature setting
by one number.
- If the temperature is too cold, push and hold the
TEMP SET button to lower the temperature setting
by one number.
- Have the refrigerator serviced by your dealer or a Norcold
authorized Service Center as soon as possible.
Temperature switch monitor:
This refrigerator is equipped with a temperature switch [142] for
overheating protection. (See Art01869). A Norcold authorized
service technichian can determine if this switch has been
triggered.
