Fresh Water: Pump fresh water into tank with the assistance of an onboard or
external water pressure. The water may also be hosed into the tank through the inlet
or outlet valve located on the rear of the tank or the relief valve located on the front
of the unit. Continue this process for approximately five minutes, allowing ample
time for the water to agitate the stagnant water on the bottom of the tank and thus
forcing any corrosive material through the drain opening.
4. Close the drain and relief valves.
REFRIGERATOR - RV TYPE
This appliance in your Jayco recreation vehicle has been designed by its manufacturer to
operate on 120 volt AC electric or on LP gas energy. Its performance depends on
numerous factors such as energy, venting, leveling, humidity and atmosphere tempera-
tures.
Leveling
Comfortable vehicle leveling is well within the refrigerator’s operating requirements of
three degrees off level side-to-side and six degrees off level front-to-back (looking at the
front of the refrigerator). Continued operation outside of these limits can result in
irreparable damage to the cooling system.
Venting
For the refrigerator to operate correctly there are two vents that must be unrestricted in
your travel trailer. The first vent is located in the lower portion of the sidewall. It is a
hinged or removable panel that allows access to service compartments on the refrigerator.
The second vent is located in the roof of the travel trailer, above the coils on the rear side
of the refrigerator. Please note, birds might build nests in this vent. It is advisable to retain
the screen over the base to prevent this from occurring.
Door Seal
To maintain cooling efficiency and prevent excessive frost buildup, the doors must seal
completely around the entire length of the door gasket. Frequent frost buildup or reduced
cooling are indications of air leaks. To check for complete door sealing, lay a long strip of
paper or a dollar bill across the flange, against which the gasket seals; then close the door.
A frictional drag should be felt when withdrawing the paper. Repeat in several places all
around the door. If the paper feels loose, the gasket is not sealing. Contact your dealer or
service center.
CAUTION:
Do not use undue force or jerking action when opening the refrigerator
door. Air temperature differences can cause a partial vacuum within the cabinet
requiring a firm but steady force to open the door. A sudden jerk could cause door
damage or personal injury.
