  • Turn the refrigerator off if cooling is abnormal.
  • Check that vents are not blocked.
  • Record the model number, code, and recent power source before service.
  • Record display fault E35 and take a photo of the display.
  • Check only owner-visible refrigerator ventilation openings for obstruction.
  • Note ambient temperature and reset the error once by pressing the encoder button for 3 seconds until a beep is heard.

Stop and call a technician for

  • Internal cooling, gas, electrical, or control diagnosis belongs to an authorized Dometic service provider.
  • A continuing E35 over-temperature fault must be handled by an authorized service provider.
  • Cooling-system, compressor, airflow-system, sensor, wiring, and control-electronics diagnosis are service-only.

Do not bypass refrigerator safety controls or work on LP/electrical components. Shut off LP and power if you smell gas, see scorching, or the unit behaves abnormally.

Do not remove refrigerator panels, service airflow components, wiring, sensors, compressor/cooling components, or controls; use only owner-visible ventilation checks and front-panel reset before qualified service.
