1.10 Declaration of conformity
n At an average ambient temperature of
25°C, it is sufficient to operate the refrigera-
tor at middle thermostat setting.
n Where possible, always store precooled
products.
n Do not expose the refrigerator to direct
sunlight or any other heat source (e.g. hea-
ter).
n Ensure that air circulation of the refrigerati-
on unit is not obstructed.
n Arrange the shelves evenly in the refrigera-
tor (in the cooling compartment) in order to
achieve the most efficient use of energy.
1.9.2 Energy-saving-tips
Ammonia (a natural compound of hydrogen
and nitrogen) is used in the cooling unit as a
coolant. Non-ozone-hazardous cyclopentane
is used as a propellant for manufacturing PU
foam insulation.
In order to ensure that the recyclable packa-
ging materials are re-used, they should be
sent to the customary local collection system.
The appliance should be transferred to a suit-
able waste disposal company that will ensure
re-use of the recyclable components and pro-
per disposal of the rest. For eco-friendly drai-
ning of the coolant from all absorber refrigera-
tion units, a suitable disposal plant should be
used.
1.9 Environmental notices
1.9.1 Disposal
n Do not overfill the storage grids and com-
partments to prevent obstructing the inter-
nal air circulation.
n Maintain a clearance of approx. 10 mm bet-
ween chilled products and post-evaporator
("cooling fins").
n Defrosting at regular intervals saves energy
(see section "Defrosting").
n Open the refrigerator door only for a short
period of time when removing products.
n Run the refrigerator for about 12 hours
before filling it.
The current Declaration of Conformity can also
be requested directly from Dometic GmbH,
Siegen.
i
Do not dispose of batteries in domestic waste.
Take your used batteries to your dealer or a
collection point.

2.6 Information on coolant
Ammonia is used as a coolant.
This is a natural compound also used in hou-
sehold cleaning agents (1 litre of Salmiak
cleaner contains up to 200g of ammonia -
about twice as much as is used in the refrige-
rator). Sodium chromate is used for corrosion
protection (1.8% by weight of the solvent).
In the event of leakage (easily identifiable from
the strong odour), proceed as follows:
- Switch off the appliance.
- Air the room thoroughly.
- Inform authorised customer services.
It is imperative that the operating pressure
corresponds to the data specified on the
rating plate of the appliance. Compare the
operating pressure of the rating plate with the
data specified on the pressure reducing valve
of the liquid gas cylinder.
2.5 Operating the refrigerator
and oven with gas
WARNING!
Operating the appliance with gas is not
permitted
n in garages
n at petrol stations
n on ferry boats
n while transporting the caravan/motor-
home by a transporter or breakdown
vehicle.
There is the danger of fire!
Leave the equipment switched off.
If you smell gas:
n Open all windows and leave the room.
n Do not operate any electrical equipment
and prevent the use of naked flames.
n Close the gas cylinder valve and leave it
closed until the fault has been rectified.
n Contact authorised specialist personnel*
for advice.
* authorised specialist personnel
Authorised specialist personnel are accredited
experts who are able, by virtue of their training and
knowledge, to vouch that the inspection has been
carried out properly.
For your safety it was ascertained in an
expert's report that no impairment of health
exists when the coolant is discharged.
CAUTION!
n Wear gloves for handling hot objects in
order to prevent injuries.
n It is necessary to provide additional
ventilation during cooking, e.g, by ope-
ning windows in the vicinity of the coo-
ker.
WARNiNG!
Some parts of the cooker become very
hot during operation. Protect yourself
and children against contact with these
hot parts.

Safety instructions
The cooling unit's performance is influenced
by ambient temperatures. Please select the
medium setting for ambient temperatures
between +15°C and +25°C (refer to
Setting of
cooling compartment temperature
). The unit
operates within its optimum performance
range.
Dometic refrigerators work according to the
absorption principle. For physical reasons, an
absorption system responds slowly to
changes made by the thermostat controller,
by loss of cooling energy through opening the
door or during storing food. The devices meet
the cooling performance requirements of the
Climatic Class SN acc. to EN/ISO 7371 in the
temperature range of +10°C to +32°C
ambient temperature.
For temperatures below +10°C, winter
covers should be installed. For ambient
temperatures exceeding +32°C for a lon-
ger period of time, it is recommended
installing Dometic additional fan (
item no.
241 2985 - 01
).
i
No refrigerator of any kind can improve the
quality of the food; refrigerators can only
maintain the food's quality for a short dura-
tion as from the time of storing it.
Please observe the following particular
conditions for storing food in a refrigerator
that is built into a vehicle:
n A change in the climatic conditions such as
temperature fluctuations
n High temperatures inside the vehicle when
it is closed and parked in direct sunlight
(temperatures are possible up to 50°C)
n Use of the refrigerator during travel with the
power supply of 12V DC
n A refrigerator built in behind a window and
exposed to direct sunlight
n Storing the products too soon, i.e. shortly
after starting up the appliance for use
Under these particular conditions the refrige-
rator cannot guarantee reaching the tempera-
ture needed for perishables.
Perishables include all products with a stipula-
ted use-by date and a minimum storage tem-
perature of +4°C or less, especially for meat,
poultry, fish, sausages, pre-packed foods.
n Pack raw and cooked foods separately
(e.g. in containers, aluminium foil, etc.).
n Only remove the outside packaging of sin-
gle packs if all the necessary information,
e.g. the use-by date, can also be read on
the single packs.
n Do not leave cooled goods outside the
refrigerator for too long.
n Place the foods with the next use-by date
at the front, accordingly.
n Pack away any left-over food and eat at the
first opportunity.
n Wash your hands before and after handling
any food.
n Regularly clean the inside of the refrigera-
tor.
Please observe the instructions and informati-
on regarding the use-by date on the outside
packaging of the food.
Please observe section
"4.1 Cleaning"
of this
instruction.

4.1 Cleaning
Before starting up the refrigerator, it is recom-
mended that you clean it inside and repeat this
at regular intervals.
Use a soft cloth and lukewarm water with a
mild detergent. Then wipe out the appliance
with clean water and dry thoroughly.
To avoid material alterations, do not use soap
or hard, abrasive or soda-based cleaning
agents. Do not allow the door seal to come
into contact with oil or grease.
4.2 Maintenance
4.3 Electrical operation
12V-voltage (on-board power supply)
The refrigerator should only be used in
12VDC-operation while the vehicle’s engi-
ne is running, otherwise the on-board-bat-
tery would be discharged within a few
hours!
CAUTION!
n In compliance with the applicable regulati-
ons, please note that the gas unit and the
connected ventilation ducts must be chec-
ked by authorised technical personnel after
first use and after every other year for com-
pliance with the European Standard EN
1949. A test certificate has to be issued. It
is the user's responsibility to arrange
this test.
n The gas burner must be inspected and
cleaned as necessary at least once a
year. When using liquefied petroleum
gas (tank or refill cylinders) the mainten-
ance interval is reduced to half-yearly or
quarterly.
Keep the evidence of maintenance work
carried out on your refrigerator.
n Work on gas and electrical equipment
shall be carried out by qualified person-
nel only.
It is recommended that this is carried out
by an authorised customer services depart-
ment.
We recommend maintenance following an
extended shutdown of the vehicle. Please
contact our customer services.
n When the appliance is first put into operati-
on, there may be a mild odour which will
disappear after a few hours.
n Park the vehicle level, particularly when
starting up the refrigerator and filling with
food before starting a journey.
n The cooling unit is silent in operation.
n The refrigerator will take several hours to
reach its operating temperature in the coo-
ling compartment. The freezer compart-
ment should be cold about one hour after
switching on the refrigerator.
The refrigerator is equipped to operate on
three power modes:
n Mains voltage (230V AC)
n Direct-current voltage (12V DC)
n Gas (liquid gas propane/butane)
Select the desired power mode by the energy
selector button. Appliances with automatic
energy selection (AES) are additionally provi-
ded with "automatic mode" function. Then the
AES system automatically selects the best
energy source for each particular situation.

specified on the data plate. Any difference
in values may result in damage the
appliance.
CAUTION!
4.4 Gas operation (Liquid gas)
Prior to starting the refrigerator in gas
mode :
n Open the gas cylinder valve.
n Open the shut-off valve for gas supply to
the refrigerator.
As a basic rule, gas operation is prohibi-
ted in petrol stations!
WARNING!
n The refrigerator must be operated using
liquid gas (propane, butane) (no natural gas
or town gas).
n When using LPG gas, please consider that
the burner needs cleaning at shorter inter-
vals due to the gas combustion method (2
- 3 times per year recommended.
n In Europe, gas operation is permitted while
travelling only on the condition that the gas
system of the vehicle is equipped with a
hose rupture protection. The national regu-
lations of the respective country must be
observed.
n For physical reasons, gas ignition faults
could occur starting from an altitude above
sea level of approx. 3280 ft. / 1000 m (No
malfunction!)
n On the initial refrigerator start-up or after a
cylinder change, air may be trapped in the
gas line. To purge the air from the lines,
switch on the refrigerator and any other gas
appliances (e.g. stove) for a short time. The
gas ignites without delay.
n Each refrigerator with manual ignition is
equipped with an automatic flame safety
valve which interrupts the gas supply auto-
matically after approx. 30 seconds when
the flame has extinguished.

Refrigerator operation
In order to prevent unintended switching to
gas operation during refuelling, the electronic
system starts gas operation of the refrigerator
after the motor has been turned off for 15
minutes. During this period the appliance is
ready for operation ("stand-by"). The tempera-
ture level LEDs do not light then while all other
indicators remain active.
The use of unshielded flames is prohibited
in petrol station environments.
Should the refuelling stop last longer than
15 minutes, the refrigerator has to be swit-
ched off or switched over to another ener-
gy type.
WARNING!
4.7.5 Additional features (MES / AES)
To start the refrigerator, press button (1) for 2
seconds.
The refrigerator starts with the last selected
type of energy.
Automatic operation :
Press button(5) : A
Upon switching on, the electronics automati-
cally selects one of the three possible energy
types: 230V - 12V - liquid gas. The control
electronics automatically ensures that the
refrigerator is supplied with the optimum sour-
ce of energy in each respective case.
Sequence of priority: 1.) Solar (12V -)
2.) 230V ~
3.) 12V -
4.) Liquid gas
If sufficient mains voltage is available (more
than 195 V), this power source is selected as
prime option. If a solar system capable of
powering the refrigerator is installed, the solar
12V supply takes priority.
The 12V operation is otherwise only effective
while the engine is running.
According to the sequence of priority the elec-
tronics selects GAS as energy source only, if
both of the electrical energy source are not
available.
Manual operation is possible at any time.
