Battery Monitor
The Arctic fridge/freezer is equipped with a battery preservation monitor. It has three settings to
monitor your battery to prevent a full discharge. The higher the setting the higher the cut-off
voltage will be.
When set to HIGH, the battery monitor will provide maximum protection for the battery running
the fridge/freezer against excessive/full discharge. When set to LOW, the battery monitor will
allow the fridge/freezer to use more of the batteries energy.
The battery monitor will shut off the fridge/freezer as soon as the supply voltage falls below the
set level. The fridge/freezer will restart after 2 minutes once the cut-in voltage is reached.
Cut-out is the input voltage in which the fridge/freezer will turn off at.
Cut-in is the input voltage in which the fridge/freezer will turn on at.
If your fridge/freezer is connected to the starting battery of your vehicle, then it is recommended
to have the battery monitor set to HIGH.
If your fridge/freezer is connected to an auxiliary/secondary battery, then it is recommended to
have the battery monitor set to LOW.
If your fridge/freezer is connected to AC power, then it is recommended to have the battery
monitor set to LOW.
It is recommended to charge the battery once the battery monitor has been triggered.
The plug on the DC power cable has a removable adaptor collar. With the collar in place, this plug
will fit into a conventional 12v lighter socket. Remove the adapter by turning collar 1/8th of a turn
counter clockwise and pull off if utilizing a 2 pole power socket. Commonly referred to as a
Hella/BMW socket.
