Ensure that the wires from the battery to the refrigerator are
able to handle the load. The distance the current must travel
from the battery to the refrigerator dictates the AWG wire size
to be used. Inadequate wire sizes can result in a voltage drop
which affects the refrigerator performance.
Recommended wire sizes are displayed in the following table:
Conductor wire length and size
The refrigerator requires a continuous 12V DC supply to main-
tain the automatic energy system. The connection is made to
the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the terminal block
on back of the refrigerator, see “
Correct polarity must be observed when connecting to the DC
supply. Do not use the chassis or vehicle frame as one of the
conductors. Connect two wires at the refrigerator and route to
the DC supply. The connections must be clean, tight and free
To remove the refrigerator, follow these steps:
Loosen the screws anchoring the refrigerator to the
Slide the refrigerator out of the compartment.
Replacement is the reverse of removal. When reinstalling the
refrigerator, make sure the sealing strips are properly posi-
tioned. Check all connections for gas leaks.
Before removing the refrigerator:
Verify that the AC and DC voltage leads are
Disconnect the gas supply line at the rear of the
Always use a back up wrench when
loosening and tightening connections.
