Automatic Energy Selection (only with RM
7XX5 L)
‘AUTO’ operation
RM7XX5L-modelsareequippedwithan
‘AUTO’MATICfunction.
1. Set energy selection switch (A) to position
‘AUTO’. The LED ‘AUTO’ illuminates.
Note: Manual operation is possible at
any time.
Explanations
Upon switching on, the electronics
automatically select one of the three possible
energytypes:230V-12V–liquidgas.The
control electronics automatically ensure that the
refrigerator is supplied with the optimum source
of energy in each respective case.
Priority1. Solar(12VDC)
2. 230VAC
3. 12VDC
4. Liquid gas
The selected energy is displayed by the
correspondingLED(i.e.230V).
230V - operation
If sufficient supply voltage is available (more
than200V),thispowersourceisselectedasthe
first option ( no solar-system installed).
12V - operation
12Voperationshouldonlybeselectedwhilethe
vehicle motor is running or there is sufficient
voltage available from the sola system. This
canbedetectedfromtheD+connectionof
the alternator to the electronics, or from the
respective signal on the solar charge regulator.
Gas operation
Gas operation is selected in the
following circumstances:
•Nosupplyvoltageavailable.
•Thevehicleengineisnotrunning.
•Supplyvoltagelessthan200V
Refuelling Stop
In order to prevent unintended switching to gas
operation during refuelling, the electronic system
starts gas operation of the refrigerator, after the
motor has been turned off for 15 mins. During
this time the appliance is in stand-by operation
mode and only the ‘AUTO’ LED lights up
The use of naked flames is prohibited in
petrol station environments. If the refuelling
stop lasts longer than 15 mins the refrigerator
should be switched off at the main switch (A),
or switched over to another energy type.

Gas operation
• Therefrigeratorshouldonlybeoperated
using liquid gas (propane, butane). Do not
use town gas or natural gas.
• Iftherefrigeratorisoperatedduringtravel
using gas, the precautions stipulated by the
legislation in the respective country must
be taken (in conformity with the European
standardEN732).
• Operatingtherefrigeratorwithgasisnot
permitted during travel in France and
Australia.
• Asabasicrule,operationusinggasis
prohibited in petrol stations.
1. Open the valve of the gas cylinder
2. Open the shut-off valve to the gas supply.

The ignition process is activated automatically,
accompanied by a ticking sound approx. 30 sec.
Upon successful ignition, the display LED (C)

Remedies:
Set the energy selector switch (A) to
position ‘OFF’.
1. Is there any gas in the gas bottle?
2. Is the gas bottle valve open?
3. Is the on-board shut-off valve open?
4. Set the main switch (A) to ‘on’
The re-ignition starts again.
If after about 30 seconds the operating display
