RE: Phunky Phridge SmellsPeter,

I'm not sure how the Dometic door on the Westfalia works. My Adventurewagen
has a Norcold brand refrigerator and its' door is locked in place by a metal
pin on a chain. Supplied was a 3.5 inch long double bent piece of metal
shaped like: |_____| , which allows one to open the door a few inches and
drop the piece into place and lock the door in an open position. The
refrigerator will air out nicely with the door in that slightly ajar
position. After a few days I close the door. So far no nasty odors.

  I simply take the door off whey I don't use the fridge.  That's the
easiest thing I could think of.  Works great!  No more bad fridge smell in
the van.  Don't forget to remove the trays as well or they'll start flying
in the next sharp left turn.

  Cheers,
  Peter
