Defrosting: The frozen food compartment walls of the refrigerator operate at below freezing temperature and will naturally form frost from humidity, which is always present in the air. The humidity inside the refrigerator increases: - with higher outside temperature and humidity. - with the storage of non-sealed fresh foods or warm foods. - with the amount of time that the door(s) are open. - with any air leakage into the refrigerator. It is normal for frost to collect inside the refrigerator.
Door sealing: If the door does not seal correctly, excess frost will collect inside the refrigerator. Make sure the door seals correctly: - Close the door on a piece of paper (See Art00980). - Gently pull the paper. - You should feel a slight drag between the gasket and the cabinet. - Do this on all four sides of the door. - If you do not feel a slight drag on the paper, the door is not sealing correctly. - Have your dealer or an authorized Thetford Service Center correct the seal of the door.
Over heating shut-off device operation: Operating the refrigerator in high ambient temperatures can over heat the cooling unit and cause premature failure of the compressor (See the label inside the refrigerator). To protect the cooling unit from over heating, the refrigerator will automatically shut-off when the temperature of the power module is higher than 100° C. The refrigerator will not restart until the temperature of the power module is lower than 80° C.
