Hot refrigerator coils...(Fun Finder)

I'm posting for a neighbor. She has a little "Fun Finder" travel trailer. There are two vent panels for the fridge and coils in the lower area feel warm but not too warm but the ones at the top are quite hot. Hot enough that you want to take your finger off it in a few seconds. That doesn't seem right. It's a Dometic. Thanks...

I thought the top coils were the hottest? If the fridge is working I call normal.

Sounds love she has a refer in a slide, and therefore the two vents. A non slide unit has one side (lower intake) vent and the exhaust vent on the roof.

The roof vent facilitates convection, while the two side vents usually have a fan to promote air flow.

By the way is the refer on propane?
