Connect the Propane Gas Components
This refrigerator operates on propane gas at a pressure of 11 inches Water Column Propane.
The controls operate on 12 volts DC (10.5 volts min. - 15.4 volts max.). Operation out of these limits can damage the refrigerator
electrical circuit parts and will void the warranty.
Connect the propane gas supply system:
Be very careful when working on or near the propane gas system.
- Do not smoke, or use an open flame near the propane gas system.
- Do not use an open flame to examine for leaks.
- Do not connect the refrigerator to the propane gas tank without a pressure regulator between them.
WARNING
!
Connect the Low Ambient Heater (optional)
Connect the low ambient heater wires to the 12 volts DC supply. The black
(+) wire of the low ambient heater is 16 AWG and the brown (-) wire is 18
AWG.
1. Cut the 12V input (+) wire behind the quick connect [269]; strip both ends
(See Art02316).
2. Solder the wires with the 16AWG black wire [266].
3. Wrap the soldered wires with black electrical tape [268]; BE SURE there
are no exposed strands.
4. Cut the 12V ground wire behind the quick connect [269]; strip both ends
(See Art02317).
5. Solder the wires with the 18AWG wire [267].
6. Wrap the soldered wires with black electrical tape [268] ; BE SURE there
are no exposed strands.
7. Connect 12V supply to the input wires.
This kit supplies DC voltage to the heater any time the
ambient temperature is low enough. Extended storage
during cold weather will drain the vehicle batteries. To
prevent battery drain, remove the 3 amp fuse from the low
ambient heater.
