IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

  • Before you use your absorption refrigerator, please read this instruction manual carefully.
  • NEVER install gas appliances in unventilated (air tight) structures or sleeping rooms. Gas refrigerators consume air (oxygen) when operated on gas power. When used in any inside area, provide a fresh air opening of at least 3 square inches (20mm). Please note that an exterior flue is not required with “vent-less” propane appliances like gas refrigerators, but you may choose to run an insulated 2 inch (min) inside diameter vent pipe through the roof (straight up is best) or the wall (avoid 90 degree bends with 45’s spaced more than two feet apart). It is recommended that a carbon monoxide detector be installed in the same room as the gas refrigerator.
  • NEVER install a gas appliance on carpeting or against a flammable wall.
  • NEVER leave your gas appliances running unattended while on vacation.
  • NEVER run the electrical power and gas power at the same time. Backup electrical power 230 volt AC operation is STANDARD equipment on the gas fridge. Should you ever run out of gas, it’s very handy. Just be certain to never run both heaters at the same time. Serious damage will result to the cooling unit if you do.
  • Never unplug you absorption refrigerator by pulling on the power cord. Always grasp the plug firmly and pull straight out from the wall outlet.
  • Repair or replace immediately, all electric service cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged.
  • Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length, the plug or the connector end.
  • Unplug your absorption refrigerator before cleaning or before making any repairs.
  • The power supply must be properly grounded.
  • Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this user manual.
  • This absorption refrigerator must be properly installed in accordance with the installation instructions before it is used.
  • Cut off the gas supply before cleaning or before making any repairs.

  • Do not operate your absorption refrigerator in the presence of explosive fumes.
  • Do not use the unit in the immediate surroundings of a bath, shower or swimming pool.
  • Before discarding or storing, we recommend that you remove the door and leave the shelves in place.
  • This will reduce the possibility of danger to children. The sealed cooling system must not be opened, since it contains corroding chemicals under high pressure.
  • Check that the gas supplied to the refrigerator is at the correct pressure. See the pressure regulator on the LP gas tank.
  • Do not store explosive substances such as aerosol cans with flammable propellant in this appliance.
  • Do not use an adapter plug or extension cord.
  • Remove any transit protection before use.
  • This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons unless they have been adequately supervised by a responsible person to ensure that they can use the appliance safely.
  • If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Note: As the door gasket gets pressed-in during shipment, after reversing the door the gasket might have to be reset. This will be good for seal to avoid any air escaping. If there is a gap between the cabinet and the door gasket, set the gasket by gently pulling it out to seal the gap. If necessary, you are recommended also to use the hair drier to warm the gasket to get rid of the gap.

Models XCD-185 and XCD-280

How to reverse the door

  • Remove the right three hinges by loosening and removing the screws with screwdriver.
  • Carefully lower the doors and take them off the cabinet.
  • Change the hinges to the left sides. Mount the top and bottom hinges first, then insert the two doors.
  • Mount the middle hinges.

Note: As the door gasket gets pressed-in during shipment, after reversing the door the gasket might have to be reset. This will be good for seal to avoid any air escaping. If there is a gap between the cabinet and the door gasket, set the gasket by gently pulling it out to seal the gap. If necessary, you are recommended also to use the hair drier to warm the gasket to get rid of the gap.

Inside Lighting (Not available in every model)

The LED lamp works with four batteries,1.5volts each,AAA size.

Batteries are mounted on the back of the refrigerator. You need to replace the batteries periodically in case that the lamp is not bright enough.

FOOD STORAGE

The freezer compartment is not intended for quick freezing of foods. It keeps food frozen. The fresh food compartment stores and cools food. For best cooling performance, air must circulate within the fresh food compartment. Do not cover the shelves with paper, plastic, etc. To reduce frost on the cooling fins, cover liquids and moist foods. Do not place hot foods in the compartment, and do not leave the door open longer than needed. The door storage areas hold items such as 2-liter bottles, half-gallon milk cartons, pop cans, ketchup bottles, and other commonly used items. Allow the refrigerator to cool for 8 hours before loading foods. Loading a warm refrigerator with warm food increases the cool down period. Never keep items in the refrigerator which might give off flammable gases. Never put bottles or cans of fizzy drinks in the frozen food storage compartment as they may burst when freezing. Also don’t give children ice lollies straight from the frozen food as they could cause frostbite. Most kinds of frozen food can be stored in the frozen food compartment for about a month. This period of time may vary, however, and it is important to follow the instructions on the individual packets.

ICE-MAKING

Fill the ice tray just below the brim with drinking water and place it on the freezer compartment. It is possible to make ice faster by turning the control knob temporarily to its highest value but do not forget to turn it back to its regular setting afterwards as the refrigerator might otherwise become too cold.

DEFROSTING

Frost will gradually accumulate on the refrigerating surfaces. It must not be allowed to grow too thick as it acts as an insulation and adversely affects refrigerator performance.
Check the formation of frost regularly every week and when it gets about 3 mm thick, defrost the refrigerator. To defrost the refrigerator, turn it off and remove the ice tray and all food items. Warning: normally the temperature of items of frozen foods would rise unduly during defrosting and so they should be consumed within 24 h or discarded. Do not try to accelerate defrosting by using any kind of heating appliance, as this might damage the plastic surfaces of the refrigerator. Neither should any sharp objects be used to scrape off the ice. The defrost water runs through the drainage pipe to a receptacle at the rear of the refrigerator where it evaporates.
Defrost water in the freezer compartment should be mopped up with a cloth.
When all ice has melted, wipe the refrigerator dry and restart it. Place the food items back inside but wait until the refrigerator is cold before making ice cubes

CLEANING THE REFRIGERATOR

Warning: To avoid electric shock always unplug your absorption refrigerator before cleaning. Ignoring this warning may result in injury.

General: Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine bleach, concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads. SOME of these chemicals may dissolve, damage and/or discolor your absorption refrigerator.

  1. Remove the contents of the appliance
  2. Wipe the inside and outside surfaces with a damp cloth. The addition of vinegar to the water is good for the prevention of mold and fungus.
  3. Wipe all parts thoroughly after the cleaning.

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.
The entire unit must be left for drying completely after cleaning with damp cloth

Cleaning the burner

Take off the protection hood and do the following:

  1. Clean the openings and the burner screen with a toothbrush;
  2. Clean and inspect the electrode and thermocouple. If either is corroded, have it changed. Check that they are well attached and if necessary tighten the screws;
  3. Check that the spark is created by pressing the electric piezo igniter button on the control panel.
  4. Do not use thin objects to either clean or unblock the injector
Cleaning the Cooling System Flue

WARNING Carbon Monoxide can be hazardous to your health. Gas appliances may emit excessive Carbon Monoxide if the refrigerator’s burner, burner orifice, and the flue tube are not regularly cleaned. To prevent Carbon Monoxide, the burner, burner orifice, and the cooling system’s flue tube must be cleaned at least once a year and after all prolonged (seasonal) shut-down periods. Refer to the following cleaning procedures, or contact a qualified installer, your dealer.

Before cleaning, Put a cloth on the burner to protect it from dirt;

  1. Remove the refrigerator from its enclosure.
  2. Remove the heat deflector cap from the flue.
  3. Remove the spiral flue baffle from the flue tube.
  4. Using a stiff brush or fine emery cloth, clean the spiral flue baffle of debris.
  5. Clean the inside of the flue tube with a flue brush. Inspect burner after cleaning.
  6. Re-install the spiral flue baffle. Insure the spiral flue baffle is securely in place. The spiral flue baffle is required for efficient cooling while operating in the gas mode.

TROUBLE SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE

If the refrigerator fails to work, check the following points before calling a service technician:

  1. That the above installation and operating instructions have been followed.

  2. The refrigerator is level.

  3. If it is possible to start the refrigerator on any of the connected sources of energy.

  4. If the refrigerator fails to work on gas, check:
    – That the gas bottle is not empty. – That all LP-gas valves are open.

  5. If the refrigerator fails to work on 230 V, check:
    – That the 230 V supply is connected to the refrigerator
    . – That the fuse is intact.

If the refrigerator is not cold enough it may be because:
The ventilation of the cooling unit is inadequate.
The thermostat is set on the high temperature position.
The doors are opened frequently, or the gasket is not sealed properly.
Too much food at one time.
The gas pressure is incorrect – check the pressure regulator at the gas container. 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.

MAINTENANCE

Inspect the gas hose periodically for cracks or deep chafing marks. Connections can be tested for leaks using a soap solution.

WARNING: Do not use flame to check for leakage in the gas tubes.

DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME!
If there is any suspicion of damage, call for a service technician. We recommend that a service technician check the refrigerator once a year.

REPLACING THE LAMP (WHERE FITTED)
If the LED lamp inside the fridge has stopped working, first try replacing the batteries at the rear of the fridge with new M 1.5V batteries. If the lamp sti ll does not work, you will need to contact DP Refrigeration on (03) 9437 0737 to arrange a new famp assembly. Use a flat headed screwdriver to remove the cover on the lamp, unclip the PCB and let the wires drop down. Detach the spade connectors, reattach the new LED lamp assembly, clip PCB and cover back into place.
