I noticed a strong ammonia smell in my fridge when ever it was off. I can't say that I have run it off level. Or as close to level as I can get. How critical is dead level with these units?

I have taken it in to the dealer to have that looked at as we'll as a few other things. i.e. hot water heater, front electric jack, speaker not working, and the ammonia leak. The unit is only 6 months old with 4 trips.

Ammonia scent is a death toll for thr entire cooling unit. Perfect level is not necessary per Domrtic website. For ops the closer the better.

Is it ok for it to be running on propane while traveling, bouncing around and such. If not how am I supposed to keep food and such cold?? Don't want pack a bunch of coolers. That was one reason for upgrading from the pop-up.

On the fridge that recently died in our GT (a Swedish-built Dometic) there was no adjustability on temperature. "We know how cold your food should be and we won't let you change it". Arrogant ba*****ds. The difference at retail was $45 on a $1400 unit. Its replacement has the 5-step electronic adjustability.
