Troubleshooting

Likely Cause
 Is the burner lit
 Is it time to defrost
 Is ventilation according to Owner's
Manual
 Is the gas pressure correct
 Is the ambient temperature extra warm
 Are the condenser fins dirty
 Are the absorber coils dirty
 Do you smell ammonia
Check for frost on evaporator outlet
tubing
 Is the refrigerator level
 Is the burner modulating? (flame goes
from "high" to "low" flame while some-
one else turns thermostat knob from
"MAX" to "MINIMUM")
 Refrigerator is located in an unheated
area, or where the temperature is low
 Thermostat knob is at a cold setting
Solution
If the burner is not lit, re-light and check op-
eration. If the burner does not light, refer to
"Burner will not Light"
Defrost according to Owner's Manual
Make sure ventilation is according to Own-
er's Manual
Have a qualified technician check your gas
pressure. i.e. local propane company. The gas
pressure should be 11" water column.
Limit door openings to absolute minimum
Clean the condenser fins (see page 8)
Clean the absorber coils (see page 8)
If there is an ammonia smell, the cooling unit
is leaking and must be replaced
Tip refrigerator forward to 10:00 position and
hold it there for 5 seconds, or you can wait
for 10 – 12 hours and refrigerator will quit by
itself. (see note 1)
Level the refrigerator according to the Own-
er's Manual
If flame does not modulate, it may be possi-
ble that the thermostat is defective. Contact
your local Diamond dealer for further infor-
mation and replacement.
If the area where the refrigerator is below 50
F, you must either move the refrigerator to a
heated area, or build a cover for the refrigera-
tor.
Turn thermostat knob counterclockwise to
the warmest position, and then turn it clock-
wise to setting "2"
