Dometic service instructions state that after the fridge has been removed and put in unusual positions it will begin cooling faster *the first time* if before replacement it is inverted a few times to mix up the ingredients* properly. There's no useful effect from any long-term inversion, and no effect at all beyond the first time the cooling cycle starts up. *Liquid water, water vapor, ammonia gas both free and dissolved in water and hydrogen gas, all at pressure around 450 psi.
