Default Norcold Refrigerator run off-center: damage likely?



I recently had my Norcold model N300 on my 2002 Rialta serviced. Unfortunately, and unknown to me, Camping World left it running! I parked the Rialta at home with a forward-back angle of 0.2 degrees; the side-to-side angle was 4.7 degrees. Specs for the Norcold are 6/3 degrees maximum.



The repair was done on Friday. I picked up the Rialta on Monday. It was parked from Monday evening to Wednesday evening at the angles stated above for those two days, still running. It used a half tank of LP gas running from Friday through Wednesday.



What is the likelihood of damage to the cooling system, as Norcold states on page 4 of their Owners Manual (Model N3000 3-way unit) when run for that period off-center?



Best regards,



Bill Blask

It should be ok, let it sit for a few days off. Then level & restart hopefully it will be ok. This happened to me also parked in the yard testing the unit. A few days went by before I realized I left in on. But I releveled & everything was fine.

Rem,



Thaks for the encouragement. The dealer agreed to look it over and test it. And replace the half tank of LP it used. So far, so good.

Glad to hear that. To bad you could not get the panel. I'll look around my area & if I'm lucky will post.
