Safety Instructions

Safety Awareness

Read this manual carefully and understand the contents before you use the refrigerator.

Be aware of possible safety hazards when you see the safety alert symbol on the refrigerator and in this manual. A signal word follows

the safety alert symbol and identies the danger of the hazard. Carefully read the descriptions of these signal words to fully know their

meanings. They are for your safety.

This signal word means a hazard, which if ignored, can cause dangerous personal injury, death, or much

property damage.

This signal word means a hazard, which if ignored, can cause small personal injury or much property

damage.

- The storage of ammable materials behind or around the refrigerator creates a re hazard. Do not use the area

behind the refrigerator to store anything, especially ammable materials (gasoline, cleaning supplies, etc.)

- Do not remove the round 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.

- A circuit overload can result in an electrical re if the wires and/or fuses are not the correct size. Use only the wire

and fuse sizes as writtten in the “Installation Manual”.

- Incorrect installation, adjustment, change to, or maintenance of this refrigerator can cause personal injury, property

damage, or both. Have service and maintenance work done by your dealer or by an Norcold authorized service

center.

- Disconnect both the AC and DC power sources before doing any maintenance work on the refrigerator. All service

work on this refrigerator must be done by a qualied service technician.

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

- When you discard an appliance, remove all doors to prevent accidental entrapment and suffocation.

- 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.

- At regular intervals, make sure that the refrigerator ue the burner, the vent areas, and the ventilation air pathway

between the vents are completely free from any ammable material or blockage. After a period of storage, it is

especially important to check these areas for any ammable material or blockage caused by animals.

Owner’s Manual 10

Effects of High Altitude on Propane Gas Operation

When you operate the refrigerator on propane gas at altitudes higher than 5500 feet above sea level:

- You may experience reduced cooling performance of the refrigerator.

- You may experience burner outages.

To avoid these possible problems, Norcold recommends that you operate the refrigerator on AC when at altitudes higher than 5500 feet

above sea level.

Ice Maker (N109XIM, and N109XIMXX models)

The ice maker is assembled to the refrigerators at the factory as optional equipment. If the refrigerator does not have a factory installed

ice maker, one can not be added to the refrigerator at a later time.

The ice maker is fully automatic and will operate in ambient temperatures as low as 0° F. To allow operation at temperatures between

0° F. and 32° F., the ice maker has a heater on the solenoid water valve and on the water line between the solenoid water valve and the

ice maker.

The water line heater does not protect the water supply line from the vehicle shut off valve to the solenoid

water valve on the back of the refrigerator.

When the freezer temperature of the refrigerator is low enough, the ice maker opens the water solenoid valve and lls the mold. The

ice maker ejects the frozen ice into a storage bin. As the storage bin lls, the ice raises the shut-off arm until it turns off the ice maker.

As you use the ice and lower the ice level in the storage bin, the shut-off arm also lowers. This turns the ice maker on and begins the

process of making ice.

The ice maker operates on:

- Cold potable water at a pressure of 15 psi - 125 psi.

- 120 Volts AC (108 VAC min. - 132 VAC max.).

Ice maker operation:

1. Make sure the separate (white) AC power cord which supplies AC to the ice maker is secure.

2. Open the water shut off valve of the vehicle.

Effects of Freezing Temperatures on Refrigerator Operation

A gas absorption refrigerator is not designed to operate in freezing temperatures. If the refrigerator is not equipped for low temperature

operation, and if the cooling system of the refrigerator is exposed to temperatures of 32° F. or lower for an extended period of time,

the refrigerator operation may be disrupted. The refrigerator operation will resume when the cooling system of the refrigerator warms

sufciently.

If the refrigerator is equipped for low temperature operation, the refrigerator will operate in temperatures down to 0° F.

Disrupted operation of the refrigerator, due to extended exposure to temperatures of 32° F. or lower, and any costs incurred to warm the

cooling system of the refrigerator are not covered by the Norcold limited warranty. Please contact your local RV dealer for information

about how to resume refrigerator operation or about how to equip your refrigerator for operation in freezing temperatures.

Do not change the installation or the venting of your refrigerator. Refrigerator failures, which are the result of changes to either the

refrigerator installation or to the venting, are not covered by the Norcold limited warranty.

CAUTION

Owner’s Manual 11

Art01015

Refrigerator Care Checklist

Your refrigerator will give you years of trouble free service if you do these simple checks every three to six months:

- Keep the food compartment and the freezer clean. See “Cleaning”.

- Defrost the refrigerator as necessary. See “Defrosting”.

- Make sure the door seals correctly. See “Door Sealing“.

- Be aware of any cooling changes that are not because of weather, loading, or gas control changes. If changes occur, contact your

dealer or service center.

- Make sure the gas supply is propane gas only and not butane or a butane mixture.

- When in propane gas operation, examine the appearance of the ame. See “Gas Flame Appearance”.

- Make sure the air ow in the lower intake vent, through the refrigerator coils and condenser, and out the upper exhaust vent is not

blocked or decreased.

- Make sure the area behind the refrigerator is clear. Do not use the area behind the refrigerator for storage of anything, especially

gasoline and other ammable vapors and liquids.

Defrosting

The cooling ns of the refrigerator operate at below freezing temperature and will naturally form frost from humidity, which is always

present in the air. The humidity inside the refrigerator increases:

- with higher outside temperature and humidity.

- with the storage of non-sealed fresh foods or warm foods.

- with the amount of time that the door(s) are open.

- with any air leakage into the refrigerator.

Although the refrigerator is not frost -free, it is made to limit frost on the cooling ns. At regular intervals, the temperature control system

automatically melts most of the frost from the cooling ns. The water from the cooling ns 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.

Make sure that the ice maker arm can move freely and does not touch the frozen

foods in the freezer.

3. Push the ice maker arm down to the ON position [50] (See Art01015).

If you operate the refrigerator without connecting the water supply line and/or

opening the water shut off valve of the vehicle, make sure the ice maker arm

is up in the OFF position.

4. Allow the freezer to cool enough and ice production will begin to ll the storage bin [61].

New plumbing connections and/or impurities in the water supply line after winterizing

can cause the rst ice to be discolored or have an odd avor.

5. To stop the ice maker, push the ice maker arm up to the OFF position [62].

CAUTION

NOTICE

Owner’s Manual 12

Cleaning

It is normal for frost to collect inside the freezer. Excess frost decreases the cooling performance of the refrigerator. Defrost the
