To ensure good refrigeration and economical operation, the refrigerator must be installed and used as described in these instructions. The refrigerator is designed for installation in caravans or motorhomes.

[. . . ] Never use detergents, scouring powder, strongly scented products or wax polish to clean the interior of the refrigerator as they may damage the surfaces and leave a strong odour. The exterior of the refrigerator should be wiped clean now and then, using a damp cloth and a small quantity of detergent. But not the door gasket, which should only be cleaned with soap and water and then thoroughly dried. The cooling unit behind the refrigerator should be cleaned with a brush from time to time, but make sure that the refrigerator is switched off when doing this. IF THE REFRIGERATOR FAILS TO WORK Check the following points before calling a service technician: 1. That the "STARTING THE REFRIGERATOR" instructions have been followed. If it is possible to start the refrigerator on any of the connected sources of energy. If the refrigerator fails to work on gas, check: That all LP-gas valves are open. If the refrigerator fails to work on 12 V, check: · · · · · · · That the gas bottle is not empty. 5. That the 12 V supply is connected to the refrigerator. That the fuse on the 12 V supply is intact. 6. That the battery is not run down. If the refrigerator fails to work on 230-240 V, check: That the 230-240 V supply is connected to the refrigerator. 13 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. Gas pressure is incorrect - please check the pressure regulator on the gas container. 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. The sealed cooling system must not be opened, since it contains corroding chemicals under high pressure. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS REPOSITIONING THE HINGES The refrigerator is equipped with reversible doors. For further information, contact your dealer or Electrolux. DOOR PANEL Door panels can easily be fitted or changed. The dimensions of the panels must be: Model RM 6501 Height upper door 265 ±1mm lower door 833 ±1mm Width 483 ±1mm Thickness max. 4 mm Before starting the mounting work, check that the panel dimensions are in compliance with those given in the table and the instructions are read thoroughly. The refrigerator must not be exposed to radiated heat from hot objects. Excessive heat irradiation impairs performance and leads to increased energy consumption. For this reason the refrigerator should be installed if possible not at the entrance side of the vehicle - normally orientated south and often with an awning which would impair the dispersion of heat and combustion gases from the ventilation openings. [. . . ] It is recommended that the gas pipe feeding the refrigerator is so arranged that it is possible to turn off the supply of the refrigerator. It must be of a type approved for use with continuously operating bottled gas appliances, and have threaded compression connections throughout. PUSH-ON CONNECTIONS MUST NOT BE USED (We do not recommend the use of "rubber" type flexible tubing for connecting permanently operating appliances of this type in the United Kingdom). should be of a type specifically designed for the type and diameter of the connection pipe used, and screwed joints should be sealed with a joining compound approved for use with bottled gas. The gas supply pipe should be connected to the gas inlet pipe (outside diameter 8 mm) by means of a suitable gas-tight compression fitting, e. g. [. . . ]
