CHECKING THE LP GAS PRESSURE
The LP gas pressure should be checked and the main regulator
readjusted if pressure is incorrect. The correct operating pres-
sure is 11 inches of water column. Measure the LP gas pressure
at the test port, just ahead of the burner jet.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
CHECKING THE CONNECTIONS
Check all connections in the LP gas system (at the
back of the refrigerator) for gas leaks. The LP gas
supply must be turned on.
Apply a non-corrosive bubble solution to all LP gas
connections. The appearance of bubbles indicates a
leak and should be repaired immediately by a quali-
fied serviceman.

MAINTENANCE & SERVICE
Always keep the food compartment and the freezer clean.
If the refrigerator will not be in operation for a period of weeks it should be emptied, defrosted, cleaned and the doors left ajar,
see STORAGE PROCEDURE / WINTER OPERATION.
Periodic inspection, cleaning and maintenance of the refrigerator is recommended.
Make sure the area behind the refrigerator is clear and free from combustible material, gasoline and other flammable
vapors or liquids.
Dust off the coils on the back of the refrigerator (use a soft brisled brush).
Make sure the upper and lower vents are free from any obstructions.
NDA1402
Check the burner flame for proper appearance. The flame should be light blue.
A qualified service technician should, at least once a year, inspect the connections, the control system, the LP gas pressure
and the flue baffle, see PERIODIC MAINTENANCE.
