WARNING

CAUTION

Installation Manual 3

- Do not allow anything to touch the refrigerator cooling system.

- Propane gas can ignite and cause an explosion that can result in property damage, personal injury, or death. Do not

smoke or create sparks. Do not use an open ame to examine the propane gas supply line for leaks. Always use two

wrenches to tighten or loosen the propane gas supply line connections.

- Make sure the electrical installation obeys all applicable codes. See “Certication and Code Requirements” section.

- Do not bypass or change the refrigerator’s electrical components or features.

- Do not spray liquids near electrical outlets, connections, or the refrigerator components. Many liquids are electrically

conductive and can cause a shock hazard, electrical shorts, and in some cases re.

- The refrigerator cooling system is under pressure. Do not try to repair or to recharge a defective cooling system.

- The cooling system contains sodium chromate. The breathing of certain chromium compounds can cause cancer. The

cooling system contents can cause severe skin and eye burns, and can ignite and burn with an intense ame. Do not

bend, drop, weld, move, drill, puncture, or hit the cooling system.

- The rear of the refrigerator has sharp edges and corners. To prevent cuts or abrasions when working on the

refrigerator, use caution and wear cut resistant gloves.

Certication and Code Requirements

This refrigerator is certied by CSA International as meeting the

latest edition of ANSI Z21.19 / CSA 1.4 standards for installation in

mobile homes or recreational vehicles.

The refrigerator must be installed in accordance with this

“Installation Manual” in order for the Norcold limited warranty to be

in effect. In addition, the installation must conform to the following,

as applicable:

In the United States and Canada:

- Local codes, or in the absence of local codes, the National

Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, the Natural Gas and Propane installation Code, CSA B149.1, ANSI A119.2 Recreational

Vehicles Code, and CSA Z240 RV Series, Recreational Vehicles.

- A manufactured home (mobile home) installation must conform with the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard,

Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 [formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24 (part 280), and the

current CSA Z240.4, Gas-equipped Recreational Vehicles and Mobile Housing.

- If an external power source is utilized, the appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes

or, in the absence of local codes, the National Electrical code, and ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.2.

Parts 1 and 2.

All propane gas supply piping and ttings must obey local, state, and national codes about type and size. These components must also

obey the current NFPA 1192 section 2-4, and in Canada with the current CAN 1-6.10 Standard.

Art01290

CAUTION

Installation Manual 4

Ventilation Requirements

The completed installation must:

- Make sure there is sufcient intake of fresh air for combustion.

- Make sure the living space is completely isolated from the combustion system of the refrigerator.

- Make sure there is complete and unrestricted ventilation of the ue exhaust which, in gas mode, can produce carbon

monoxide. The breathing of carbon monoxide fumes can cause dizziness, nausea, or in extreme cases, death.

- Make sure the refrigerator is completely isolated from its heat generating components through the correct use of

bafes and panel construction.

Certied installation needs one lower intake vent and one upper exhaust vent. Install the vents exactly as written in this manual. Any

other installation method voids both the certication and the factory warranty of the refrigerator.

The bottom of the opening for the lower intake vent, which is also the service access door, must be even with or immediately below the

oor level. This allows any leaking propane gas to escape to the outside and not to collect at oor level.

CSA International certication allows the refrigerator to have zero (0) inch minimum clearance at the sides, rear, top, and bottom. While

there are no maximum clearances specied for certication, the following maximum clearances are necessary for correct refrigerator

performance:

Bottom 0 inch min. 0 inch max.

Each Side 0 inch min 1/2 inch max.

Top 0 inch min. 1/4 inch max.

Rear 0 inch min. 1 inch max.

These clearances plus the lower and upper vents cause the natural air draft that is necessary for good refrigeration. Cooler air comes

in through the lower vent, goes up around the refrigerator coils where it removes the excess heat from the refrigerator components, and

goes out through the upper vent. If this air ow is blocked or decreased, the refrigerator will not cool correctly.

Each NORCOLD model is certied by CSA International for correct ventilation. Install only the certied vents that are listed in this

manual.

ground prong from any of the AC power cords. Do not use a two prong adapter or an extension cord with

any of the AC power cords. Operation of the refrigerator without correct ground can cause dangerous

electrical shock or death if you are touching the metal parts of the refrigerator.

Put the AC power cord(s) into a grounded three-prong receptacle:

- Make sure the receptacle is positioned within easy reach of the lower intake vent.

- Make sure the power cord(s) does not touch the burner cover, the ue pipe, or any hot component that could damage the insulation

of the power cord.

Connect the 12 volts DC supply:

As the distance from the vehicle battery to the refrigerator increases, the correct AWG wire size and fuse size also increases. If the

wire size is too small for the distance, a voltage drop occurs.

1. Determine the min. wire size and the max. fuse size to use:

If you use an incorrect wire size and/or fuse size, electrical re can result.

- Use a minimum of 18 AWG wire and a maximum 6 Amp fuse.

- If the wire size is larger than the min. size, use the correct fuse per RVIA A119.2 standard or local codes.

2. Install a fuse in DC power supply wires between the battery and the refrigerator:

- Put fuse as close to the battery as possible.

3. Connect the DC power supply wires (See Art00966):

- Attach a 1/4 inch Quick Connect terminal to each DC power supply wire.

Do not use the chassis of the refrigerator or the vehicle frame as one of the

conductors. Attach the DC power supply wires only to the battery and the

power board [49] of the refrigerator.

- Push the positive DC power wire [50] onto the power board terminal that is marked

12VDC.

- Push the DC ground wire [51] onto the power board terminal that is marked GND.

- Make sure each DC power supply wire is on the correct polarity terminal.

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.

NOTICE

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 ame near the propane gas system.

- Do not use an open ame to examine for leaks.

- Do not connect the refrigerator to the propane gas tank without a pressure regulator between them.

- To avoid a propane gas leak, always use two wrenches to tighten or loosen the propane gas supply line connections.

- Leaking propane gas can ignite or explode and result in dangerous personal injury or death.

WARNING

Installation Manual 18

Connect the gas supply line to the refrigerator:

- Make sure that all tubing and ttings obey all local, state, and national codes about size and type.

- Make sure that all exible metal connectors obey the current CAN1-6.10 Standard.

- Make sure that the materials used for the gas supply line obey both the current ANSI A 119.2 (NFPA 1192) and CSA Z240

Standards on Recreational Vehicles. Norcold recommends the use of 3/8 inch copper tubing as the gas supply line and requires a

3/8 inch SAE (UNF 5/8-18) male are tting as the connection to the refrigerator.

- Put the propane gas supply line up through the oor of the enclosure.

- Make sure the hole through the oor is large enough allow clearance for the gas supply line.

- Put a weather resistant seal (grommet, sealant, etc.) around the gas supply line where it goes through the oor to prevent vibration

and abrasion.

- To prevent vibration and abrasion, make sure that the gas supply line is not against anything in the enclosure.

- Attach the gas supply line to the bulkhead tting of the refrigerator.

Examine the gas supply system for leaks:

Do not allow the leak detecting solution to touch the electrical components. Many liquids are electrically

conductive and can cause electrical shorts and in some cases, re.

Use a leak detecting solution to examine the gas supply line and all propane gas connections for leaks.

If you use compressed air for the test:

- The pressure of the compressed air at the manual shut off valve of the refrigerator must not be more than 1/2 psig (14 inches Water

Column).

- If the pressure of the compressed air is more than 1/2 psig (14 inches Water Column), remove the gas supply line from the

bulkhead tting of the refrigerator before the test.

- If the pressure of the compressed air is equal to or less than 1/2 psig (14 inches Water Column), close the manual shut off valve of

the refrigerator before the test.
