The fridge relies on vapors rising and gravity draining the condensed
liquids back down. If the angle is too great, the process does not work.
The fluids can then overheat and crystallize eventually making the
fridge in operative. Side to side angle is not that critical. Front/rear
should be within a few degrees.

Subject: Running Dometic Fridge while parking on hills Q.

Hi, my driveway is steep like a hill. Will this ruin
my Dometic fridge if i keep it running on propane? If
so, is there a mod so i can park on on an incline?

thanks
