Electrolux RM 6501 Refrigerator User Manual


 
If the refrigerator is not cooling sufficiently, the
reason may be:
1. Inadequate ventilation of the cooling unit due to the
intake and/or exhaust air vents being partly or
completely blocked.
2. The evaporator is frosted up.
3. The thermostat setting is incorrect .
4. Gas pressure is incorrect - please check the pressure
regulator on the gas container.
5. The ambient temperature is too high.
6. Too much food is loaded at one time.
7. The door is not properly closed or the magnetic
sealing strip is defective.
If the refrigerator still does not work properly, call a
service technician.
WARNING! The sealed cooling system must not
be opened, since it contains corroding chemi-
cals under high pressure.
MAINTENANCE
Always turn to a qualified service technician who is
familiar with LP gas systems and refrigerator.
We recommend that a service technician check the
refrigerator once a year.
Check all connections in the LP gas system for gas
leaks. Connections can be tested for leaks using a
soap solution. Do not use a naked flame! If there is
any suspicion of damage, call for a service technician.
The ventilation openings are unobstructed.
The Instruction Manual is available.
Check that the burner is clean and free from combus-
tible material.

The refrigerator is not operating on 12 V when the
vehicle is parked; otherwise you will drain the car
battery in a short time.

The refrigerator is clean and dry with the door left
open when it is not to be used for some time.
Liquids or items with a strong odour are well packed.
The ventilation openings are unobstructed.
