APPLIANCES & INTERIOR FEATURES
operation may be selected by pressing and hold-
ing the MODE button. The refrigerator will not
switch to the new operating mode until the
MODE button is released.
Backup Operating System (“BOS”)
Your refrigerator features a Backup Operat-
ing System which keeps the refrigerator cool in
the event of a failure of the refrigerator’s operat-
ing controls. If a failure occurs, the TEMP SET
LED flashes and refrigerator switches to the
BOS mode. This mode provides refrigeration
until the refrigerator is serviced. The fresh food
and freezer compartment temperatures should be
monitored to prevent over-freezing or thawing
of refrigerator contents when operating in the
BOS mode. If the refrigerator temperature is too
cold, adjust the thermostat to the left in single
LED increments. If the refrigerator temperature
is too warm, adjust the thermostat to the right in
single LED increments. Let the refrigerator
operate at the new setting for one hour before
rechecking the freezer and fresh food compart-
ment temperatures. (Frequent door opening pre-
vents the temperatures from stabilizing.)
Although the refrigerator can operate in this
mode, Norcold recommends that you seek ser-
vice to restore manual operation as soon as prac-
tical.
Humidity - Storage Switch
Turning this switch to HIGH HUMIDITY will
keep the surface between the door openings dry
during high humidity conditions. The switch
should be left in the NORMAL OPERATION
position unless moisture collects around the door.
When storing your RV for the winter, place
this switch in the STORAGE (LIGHT OFF) po-
sition. This shuts off all DC power to the light
and humidity heater and allows the refrigerator
door to be left open for airing without draining
the battery.
Operating Tips
·
The refrigerator should already be cold be-
fore placing items in it.
·
Food and beverages should also be cold be-
fore placing in RV refrigerator. Never put
warm or hot items in a cold refrigerator.
·
Do not pack the refrigerator too full. The re-
frigerator needs room for cold air to circulate.
·
Use smaller containers for each item. (e.g. a
half gallon container of milk instead of a half-
full gallon jug)
·
Always put foods, especially liquids, in tight-
ly sealed containers.
·
Use crumpled paper between loose items to
reduce rattling or “clinking” noises.
