Ok to run refer at an angle if on electricity?
My driveway is at an angle maybe 8 degrees. Think it's ok to run the refer if on AC? Not sure if it's always level or just on propane it must be level.

Our Norcold manual says this (I actually read manuals, lol):
The refrigerator is made to operate within 3 degrees off level side-to-side and 6 degrees off level front-to-back (as looking at the front of the refrigerator). Operating it at more than these limits can cause damage to the cooling system and create a risk of personal injury or property damage. Make sure the vehicle is level before you operate the refrigerator.
and also:
While the refrigerator should be level when the vehicle is stopped, performance during travel is not usually effected.
Question is, is it still better to keep the fridge as level as possible even if Norcold says up to 3/6 degrees is okay?? However, Norcold still says the fridge should be level before operating it so the manual is somewhat confusing.
What if you are driving up a long mountain road? Is that a concern for being off-level too long?
