TESTING LP GAS SAFETY SHUT OFF
The gas safety shut off must be tested after the
refrigerator is connected to LP gas supply.
TO TEST THE GAS SAFETY SHUT OFF, FOLLOW THESE
STEPS:
Turn on the refrigerator and switch to GAS mode.
Check that the GAS indicator dot is illuminated and
the gas flame is lit.
Close the manual gas shut off valve at the back of
the refrigerator.
Wait for approx. 6-7 minutes. The message
“LP” is displayed (flashing).
Remove the protection cover.
Open the manual gas shut off valve. (Do not change
any button positions on the control panel.)
Apply a non corrosive commercial bubble solution
to the burner jet orifice. No bubbles should appear at
the opening of the burner jet orifice. The presence of
bubbles indicates a defective gas safety shut off, and
service is required.
If no bubbles were present at the burner jet orifice,
rinse it with fresh water. Be careful not to damage
the burner jet orifice.
Put back the cover.
Switch the refrigerator OFF and back ON again.
Normal operation of the burner should return.
Allow the burner to operate for a minimum of 5
minutes.
WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
RM1350IM & RM1350WIM
The water supply system must have a minimum pressure of
15 pounds per square inch gauge (psig). A 1/4” diameter water
line to the water valve should be used at the rear of the refrig-
erator. The water line must have a manual shutoff valve placed
where it is easily accessible.

CONNECTIONS
GAS CONNECTION
RM1350, RM1350IM & RM1350WIM
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 connections should be
checked for leaks with a commercial non corrosive bubble
solution.
Always use a back up wrench when loosening and
tightening connections.
The gas supply system must incorporate a pressure regulator
to maintain a supply pressure of not more than 11 inches water
column.
When testing the gas supply system at test pressures:
> 1/2 psi - the refrigerator and its individual shutoff valve
must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system.
≤ 1/2 psi - the appliance must be isolated from the gas
supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-
off valve.
For detailed instructions on the installation and connection to
the gas supply, please contact your dealer or distributor.

TO REMOVE THE REFRIGERATOR, FOLLOW THESE
STEPS:
Cap the gas supply line.
Loosen the screws anchoring the refrigerator to the
enclosure.
Slide the refrigerator out of the compartment.
When replacing the refrigerator make sure that the sealing
strips are properly positioned. Check all connections for gas
leaks. Replacement is the reverse of removal.
