THERMOSTAT

The thermostat on the refrigerator controls both the gas
and electric operation, thereby eliminating the necessity
of resetting each time a different energy source is em-
ployed.
After the initial start-up, the thermostat should be moved
from  “COLDEST” to the desired temperature setting,
usually at mid setting.

TO SHUT OFF THE REFRIGERATOR

The refrigerator may be shut off while in any mode of
operation by pressing the main power ON/OFF button to
the UP (OFF) position. This shuts off all DC power to the
refrigerator, including the interior light.

START UP INSTRUCTIONS

A. A continuous 12 volt DC supply must be available for

the electronic control to function.

B. Press the main power ON/OFF button (1) to the

DOWN position.

C. Press the TEMPERATURE SELECTOR button (3)

until the lamp at the desired setting is illuminated.

AES/AUTO MODE

1. Press the AES/AUTO/GAS mode selector button (2)

to turn ON the AES/AUTO lamp (B). If 120 volts is
available, the AC mode indicator lamp (A) will illumi-
nate indicating AC operation. If 120 volts AC is not
available, the GAS indicator lamp (C) will illuminate
indicating the control has automatically switched to
the GAS mode.

2. If the CHECK indicator lamp (D) illuminates and the

GAS mode indicator lamp (C) is off, the controls have
failed to ignite the burner in the GAS mode. GAS
operation may be reset by pressing the main power
ON/OFF button (1) to the OFF then ON position. (See
step 2 under GAS MODE).

3. Press the TEMPERATURE SELECTOR button (3)

until the lamp at the desired position is illuminated.

GAS MODE

1. Press the AES/AUTO/GAS mode selector button (2)

to turn OFF the AES/AUTO lamp (B). The GAS mode
indicator lamp (C) will illuminate. Within 45 seconds
the burner should be ignited and operating normally.

2. On the initial refrigerator start-up, it may take longer

than 45 seconds to allow air to be purged from the
gas line. If the gas does not ignite within 45 seconds
the CHECK indicator lamp (D) will illuminate and the
GAS mode indicator lamp (C) will go off.

To reset when the CHECK indicator lamp (D) is illu-
minated, press the main power ON/OFF button (1) to
the OFF and then ON position.

NOTE: Do not continue to reset GAS operation if the
CHECK indicator lamp continues to be illuminated
after several tries.
