CERTIFICATION AND CODE REQUIREMENTS
GENERAL INFORMATION
Provide necessary air circulation over the cooling unit. Open-
ings for air supply or for venting of combustion products shall
have a minimum dimension of not less than 1/4 inch.
Certified installations require one roof vent and one lower side
vent. Proper installation requires one lower fresh air intake
and one upper exhaust vent. The ventilation kits shown in this
manual have been certified for use with RM1350 and
RME1350. The ventilation kits must be installed and used with-
out modification.

* Fill in “XXX” with color code numbers. For color codes, contact
your supplier.
An opening toward the outside at floor level in the refrigerator
compartment has to be provided for ventilation of heavier-
than-air fuel gases. The lower vent of the recommended kits is
provided with proper size openings. The flow of combustion
and ventilating air must not be obstructed. The lower side vent
is fitted with a panel, which provides an adequate access open-
ing for ready serviceability of the burner and control manifold
of the refrigerator. This should be centered on the back of the
refrigerator.
VENTILATION HEIGHTS
It is essential that all maximum or minimum dimensions are
strictly maintained as the performance of the refrigerator is de-
pendent on adequate flow of air over the rear of the refrigerator.
For an installation with roof vent and lower side vent, the mini-
mum ventilation height should be 69-1/8 inches (1756 mm).

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLING THE REFRIGERATOR
The refrigerator must be installed in a substantial enclosure
and must be level.
Do not install the appliance directly on carpeting. Carpet-
ing must be removed or protected by a metal or wood panel
beneath the appliance, which extends at least full width and
depth of the appliance.
All areas within the recess in which the refrigerator is
installed must be sealed. Make sure that there is a complete
seal between the front frame of the refrigerator and the top,
sides and bottom of the enclosure.
A length of sealing strip is applied to the rear surface of
the front frame for this purpose. The sealing strip should
provide a complete isolation of the appliance’s combustion
system from the vehicle interior.
A wood strip must be in place
across the upper opening of the
enclosure. The top frame of
the refrigerator will be anchored
to the wood strip with screws.
SECURING THE REFRIGERATOR
It is important to follow the sequence in securing refrigerator
in enclosure since failure in doing so can cause leakage be-
tween the frame and cabinet. Any space between the counter,
storage area or ceiling and top of the refrigerator greater than
1-1/2 inches should be blocked. The heat produced at the rear
of the refrigerator will become trapped in this space, making
the top of the refrigerator hot and reduce the efficiency of the
refrigerator.
After the refrigerator is put in place (ensuring a combustion
seal at the front frame), the refrigerator is to be secured in the
enclosure with six screws (not included).

INSTALL THE SIX SCREWS IN THE FOLLOWING
ORDER:
Two screws installed through the front base.
(Installation of the lower front strip.)
The refrigerator is provided with a lower front strip
(shipped as a loose part). Attach the front strip after
the refrigerator is set into the cutout opening.
Install the lower front strip by sliding it under the
bottom hinge plates.
Secure the refrigerator and the lower front strip
with two screws - one screw through each hinge.
Two screws installed in he top frame.
Open the doors and fasten the refrigerator with two
screws through the holes underneath the top
decoration panel.
Two screws installed in the rear base.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLING THE DRAIN WATER HOSE
To install the drain water hose, follow these steps:
Drill a hole through flooring. It is essential that it is
drilled in the cut out opening of the base plate at the
rear of the refrigerator.
Make sure that the hose does not kink when run
through the floor.
Seal around the hose that goes through the drilled
hole. If a longer hose than supplied is required, the
installer needs to supply one in order for the water to
drain outside of the vehicle.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
120 V AC CONNECTION
The refrigerator is equipped with a three-prong (grounding)
plug for your protection against shock hazards and should be
plugged directly into a properly grounded three prong recep-
tacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this
plug!
The free length of the cord is 3 feet. It is recommended that the
receptacle is located to the right side of the refrigerator (viewed
from the rear).
The receptacle should be 3” (from the
bottom of the plastic receptacle) above
the refrigerator mounting floor. This
allows easy access through the vent
door. The cord should be routed to
avoid direct contact with components
that could damage the cord insulation.
12 V DC AND ALTERNATOR (D+) CONNECTION
The refrigerator requires a continuous 12 V DC supply to
maintain operation. Furthermore, it requires the connection of a
signal wire from the alternator (D+) to maintain the automatic
door travel latch and the temporary gas lockout function.
The vehicle’s alternator (D+) is connected to D+ on the
terminal block.
The DC supply connection is made to the positive (+) and
negative (-) terminals of the terminal block on the back of the
refrigerator.
Correct polarity must be observed when connecting to the DC
supply. Do not use the chassis or vehicle frame as one of the
conductors. Connect two wires at the refrigerator and route to
the DC supply.
It is important that the wires to the 12 V DC terminal is
of proper wire size. The following table displays the recom-
mended size and length of the conductor wires.

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
RM1350 IM, RM1350 WIM AND RME1350 WIM
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, RM1350 IM AND RM1350 WIM
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.

3.
Before removing the refrigerator:
Verify that the AC voltage and DC voltage leads are
disconnected.
Shut off the gas supply.
Disconnect the gas supply line at the rear of the refrigerator.
Always use a back up wrench when loosening and tighten-
ing connections.
