6 Technical description
6.1 Description
The refrigerator is an absorption refrigerator. The refrigerator is designed to operate
with different types of power and can be run on an AC power supply, a DC power
supply or with butane/propane gas. For DC operation, the vehicle battery or a solar
system built on the vehicle can be used. For AC and gas operation, the thermostatic
control ensures that the refrigerator temperature is kept constant and as little power
as possible is consumed.
The refrigerator has
•a locking mechanism to protect it during transport.
•a defrost drain with its opening located on the rear panel of the refrigerator.
•an automatic pilot light which automatically interrupts the gas supply after
approx. 30 seconds if the flame goes out.
The RMV5305 refrigerator has an automatic operating mode which selects the most
economical power mode connected.
The brightness of the control elements is automatically reduced after a few seconds
if no button is pressed. If a button is pressed then the brightness increases again.
Pressing the button again performs the required function.
If the door is open for longer than 2 minutes, a beep is emitted.
