How to install the Fridge-Fix refrigerator fan into the Dometic NDR1292/1272 and RM7732 series refrigerators.

Tools You Will Need: •Pliers •Razor Knife •Glass Cleaner/Paper Towels This set of instructions will walk you through how to install the Fridge-Fix and provide power from the interior light.

Now let’s get started!

Verify that you are installing the unit into a Dometic 1292/1272 or RM7732 series fridge. The front should have a control panel similar to this. The 7732 has a different control panel, but these instructions still apply. Now will be a good time to switch the refrigerator to the OFF position. You will see the interior light “ON” in several of these shots, however, that was done for lighting purposes for the camera. Make sure your fridge is OFF during the install.

Inside the door, you should see a label, the model number either NDR1292, NDR1272, or RM7732.

We will start by removing the upper shelf to make the install easier. You will need to remove the forward and rear clips that lock the shelf into place.

Push the clips upward as show to remove them from the shelf. You will reinstall them later.

Remove the shelf: pull it out of the wall and towards the clips that were previously removed. Move shelf in direction of arrow. Set the shelf aside.

Now it is time to assemble the Fridge-Fix. The air baffle is reversible so you can choose either a textured finish or a smooth finish to face forwards.

Remove the bolts that come installed in the Fridge-Fix housing, and reinstall them as shown.

Tighten the bolts so they are SNUG. Do not over-tighten the bolts. (Please forgive our ugly pliers)

Now it’s time to mount the Fridge-Fix. Start out by cleaning the top of the fridge with either

glass cleaner or alcohol. Thoroughly dry the top of the fridge with a paper towel. If the top of the fridge is not dry, the Velcro will not stick.

Hold the Fridge-Fix up into the fridge near the cooling fins. You will need to install the ground clip on the FAR RIGHT COOLING FIN. The clip is made of high tensile steel, so you may have push hard.

Peel the clear plastic cover off of the Velcro and prepare to mount the Fridge-Fix. Note the location of the Air Baffle in the photo below. For the Fridge-Fix to work properly, the air baffle needs to be hanging right in front of the cooling fins as shown.

DRY THE CEILING OFF WITH PAPER TOWEL ONE MORE TIME BEFORE MOUNTING THE FRIDGE-FIX Mount the Fridge-Fix to the roof of the refrigerator as shown. Using two hands, press and hold the device FIRMLY up to the roof for 20 seconds.

Now it’s time to install your power wire: Remove the lense on your light, and the light bulb. We will be working with the RED wire in this install. If your wires look different than this, just determine the wire that has constant 12 Volt+ power. (Even with the door closed)

We need to enlarge the wire hole slightly to accommodate the wire splice fitting through the hole highlighted in this photo. MOVE THE WIRES OUT OF THE WAY OF THE BLADE. DO NOT LET THE KNIFE COME IN CONTACT WITH THE WIRES.

Open the wire hole up SLIGHTLY as shown with the knife. Just enough so the wire splice will fit through the hole. (It is a VERY SLIGHT adjustment)

Run the power wire for the Fridge-Fix as shown, and cut the power wire to length. Remember, you need enough power wire to reach into the hole that was just adjusted.

Gently pull some of the extra red wire out of the wall cavity. Install the splice included with your kit as shown. Leave roughly 2.5-3.0” of wire between the splice and the connector. This will allow the splice to be inserted into the wall cavity when finished.

Install the splice roughly 2.5-3.0” from the end of this wire. This will leave enough wire for the splice to be inserted into the wall cavity when

finished.

Install the splice using pliers as shown. (This photo was taken during a different installation, and is for splice installation reference only)

This is what the splice should look like when finished. The small plastic tab flips over and clips to hold the metal clip in place. (This photo was taken during a different installation, and is for splice installation reference only)

Gently tuck the splice back into the hole as shown. Reinstall the light bulb at this time.

Reinstall the light lense. The wire should look similar to this.

Reinstall the shelf that was removed. Remember, the left side goes in first, then it slides over to the right and fits into the holes in the wall. The last step is to install both clips.

For optimal performance with the Fridge-Fix installed, this plastic crisper cover should be removed permanently. It impedes the flow of air in your fridge, and is no longer needed.

You are now ready to use your Fridge-Fix (Nice job on the install!)

Some tips for best results: •If the fridge is on, the Fridge-Fix should be on. •If you are dry camping and concerned about power usage, occasional use of the Fridge-Fix use will actually LOWER the consumption of propane by your refrigerator. •Don’t forget to turn off the device when storing your RV.
