Owner’s Manual 6
Temperature control system:
Although the refrigerator is not frost -free, it is made to limit frost
on the cooling fins. At regular intervals, the temperature control
system automatically melts most of the frost from the cooling
fins. The water from the cooling fins drains into a collection cup
that is attached to the back of the refrigerator. The heat of the
cooling system evaporates the water from the collection cup.
Backup operating system:
This refrigerator has a backup operating system. The backup
operating system allows the refrigerator to continue to cool if the
temperature sensor of the refrigerator should fail.
If this failure occurs:
- The refrigerator automatically changes to the backup
operating system.
- When you push the SET TEMP button, the temperature
setting flashes in the center display for ten seconds.
- After the temperature setting flashes, the mode of
operation appears in the center display.
- The backup operating system can overfreeze or thaw the
contents of the freezer and the fresh food compartment.
- Make sure the temperatures of the freezer and the fresh
food compartment are satisfactory.
NOTE: If you open the door(s) too often, the tempera-
tures inside the freezer and fresh food compart-
ment do not become stable. Allow the refrigera-
tor to operate for about one hour after each
adjustment change before you examine the
contents. The number “9” is the coldest
temperature setting.
- If the temperature is too warm, push and hold the
SET TEMP button to raise the temperature setting
by one number.
- If the temperature is too cold, push and hold the
SET TEMP button to lower the temperature setting
by one number.
- Have the refrigerator serviced by your dealer or a Norcold
authorized Service Center as soon as possible.
To remove or move the shelves of the fresh food compartment:
- Remove the screws [4] from each retainer [5] on the side of
the refrigerator (See Art00992).
- Remove both retainers.
- Pull each shelf forward out of the slot.
- Push each fully into the slot that you wish.
- Install both retainers with the screws.
Interior light:
The interior light is at the top of the fresh food compartment. It
comes on when the refrigerator is ON and the door is open. To
replace the bulb:
1. Remove the DC power supply wires from the power board at
the rear of the refrigerator.
2. Remove the cover [1] by pulling it toward the front of the
refrigerator (See Art00988).
3. Remove the light bulb [2] from the holder [3].
NOTE: Use only a GE#214-2 bulb as the replacement bulb.
This bulb is available at most retail automotive parts
centers.
4. Install the replacement bulb.
5. Install the cover.
6. Connect the DC power supply wires to the power board at
the rear of the refrigerator.
Door alarm:
The refrigerator has an alarm to alert you if the fresh food
compartment door is not closed. The refrigerator continues to
operate, but if the fresh food compartment door is open and the
interior light remains on for two minutes:
- An audible alarm starts.
- “dr” appears in the center display.
- The interior light automatically turns off.
Close the door to silence the alarm.
Moisture reduction heaters:
The refrigerator has heaters that prevent moisture from forming
on the center divider between the two doors of the freezer
compartment and on the movable door seal. The heaters
operate only when the refrigerator is ON and the DC power is
sufficient. The heater in the movable door seal also only
operates when the left door of the fresh food compartment is
closed.
