On the refrigerator "eyebrow panel" if the AUTO light is ON, then the refrigerator is in AUTO and will switch to propane or electric operation, depending on the status of shore power availability. If the AUTO light is OFF, then the refrigerator will only run on propane, with no regard to whether shore power is available or not.
As for the auto-changeover regulator, located between your propane tanks. The "arrow" or "large point" will point to the tank to which the selector valve is mechanically connected. There is a RED/GREEN indicator on the regulator. If the GREEN indicator is showing, the tank to which the indicator is pointing is supplying propane. If the RED indicator is showing, the tank to which the indicator is pointing is empty and the auto-changeover device inside the regulator has changed to draw propane from the other tank. This is a signal that the tank to which the indicator is pointing is empty. Turn the selector knob to point to the other tank and the RED will change to GREEN, indicating that the regulator is drawing from the full tank.
At that time, it's safe to disconnect the empty tank, take it to be refilled, reinstall it and once the "other tank" is empty, the indicator will change to RED and the auto-changeover valve will switch to the tank you just refilled. Repeat the process and continue to enjoy camping.
