4.3.2 Gas operation (Liquid gas)
The refrigerator must be operated using
liquid gas (propane, butane) (no natural gas
or town gas). When using LPG gas, please
consider that the burner needs cleaning at
shorter intervals due to the gas combustion
method (2 - 3 times per year recommended
In Europe, gas operation is permitted while
travelling only on the condition that the gas
system of the vehicle is equipped with a hose
rupture protection. The national regulations
of the respective country must be observed.
For physical reasons, gas ignition faults
could occur starting from an altitude above
sea level of approx. 3280 ft. / 1000 m (No
malfunction!)
On the initial refrigerator start-up or after a
cylinder change, air may be trapped in the
gas line. To purge the air from the lines,
switch on the refrigerator and any other gas
appliances (e.g. stove) for a short time. The
gas ignites without delay.
Prior to starting the refrigerator in gas
mode :
Open the gas cylinder valve.
Open the shut-off valve for gas supply to the
refrigerator.
As a basic rule, gas operation is prohibited
in petrol stations
