Owner’s Manual 6

When the mode of operation that you wish shows in the

center display, release the MODE button.

NOTE: If you should forget in what mode your

regfrigerator is operating, push and release

the MODE button to show the current mode of

operation in the center display for 10 seconds.

Automatic mode operation:

When the refrigerator is in AUTO mode, it automatically uses

the most efficient energy source that is available for operation.

During operation, if a more efficient energy source becomes

available, the refrigerator controls change from the current

energy source to the more efficient energy source as follows:

- The first choice is AC operation if 120 volts AC is available to

the refrigerator.

- The second choice is propane gas operation if 120 volts AC

is not available to the refrigerator.

Removing air from the propane gas supply lines:

For safety reasons, the burner is made to ignite on propane gas

within a specified amount of time. When starting the refrigerator

for the first time, after storage, or after replacing propane gas

tank, the propane gas supply lines can have air in them. Due

to the air in the gas supply lines, the burner may not ignite on

propane gas within the specified amount of time.

To remove the air from the propane gas supply lines:

- Make sure that valve of the propane gas tanks(s) is open.

- Push the ON / OFF button to turn the refrigerator on.

- Push and hold the MODE button until the letters “LP” show in

the center display.

- This means that the refrigerator is operating on propane

gas.

- If the air in the propane gas supply lines prevents the

burner from ignition on propane gas, the fault codes “no”

and then “FL” will appear in the center display and you

will hear an alarm sound.

- Push and hold the ON / OFF button for one second and

then release to silence the alarm.

- Push the ON / OFF button to turn the refrigerator on.

- The refrigerator will start a 30 second trial for ignition.

- During the 30 second trial for ignition, the refrigerator

controls open the gas safety valve and the igniter makes

sparks.

- When no fault code shows and only the power indicator

remains, this means that the refrigerator is operating on

propane gas in the manual mode.

- At this time, all of the air is removed from the propane

gas supply lines and you may select AUTO mode of

operation if you wish.

- Depending on how much air may be in the propane gas

supply lines, you may need to repeat the 30 second trial for

ignition two or three times.

- If the burner does not ignite on propane gas after two or

three attempts, stop and consult your local dealer or an

authorized Norcold Service Center.

Set the controls to automatic mode operation:

- Push the ON / OFF button to turn the refrigerator on.

- Push and hold the MODE button until the letters “AU” show

in the center display and then release.

- If 120 volts AC is available to the refrigerator:

- The letters “AU” and then “AC” show in the center

display.

- After ten seconds, the “AU” and then “AC” go off and

only a green power ON light remains.

- This means that the refrigerator is operating on AC

electric.

- If 120 volts AC is not available to the refrigerator:

- The letters “AU” and then “AC” show in the center

display.

- After five seconds, the “AU” and then “LP” show in the

center display.

- After ten seconds, the “AU” and the “LP” go off and only

a green power ON light remains.

- This means that the refrigerator is operating on propane

gas.

- If neither 120 volts AC nor propane gas is available to the

refrigerator:

- The fault codes “no” “AC” and then “no” “FL” show in the

center display and an audible alarm sounds.

If an energy source is available to the refrigerator, but is not

operating correctly:

- A fault code shows in the center display.

- The refrigerator controls try to change to a less efficient

energy source.
