OPERATING YOUR FRIDGE/FREEZER
OPERATING WITH 12V/24V DC
12V/24V DC POWER REQUIREMENTS
POWER REQUIREMENTS
The fridge is designed to operate on AC or DC voltage.
If your fridge is shutting off prematurely, it could be due to the following:
Check the power cable and all connections. Adjust the battery monitor on the control panel
if required.
1. The battery voltage protection is set too high on the battery monitor.
2. The DC power cable and/or connections are not suitable to carry the required current.
AC input 110–240 V AC at 50 Hz to AC adaptor (e.g., electrical socket)
If the fridge is operating when the vehicle ignition is switched off, the fridge will switch off
automatically unless the vehicle is fitted with a dual-battery system.
The fridge will automatically switch back on when the vehicle is started and the
power-source voltage reaches the battery monitor cut-in setting.
Plug the 12V/24V DC power cable into the DC POWER socket on the side of the fridge.
Then, connect to the vehicle cigarette lighter socket or another suitable 12V or 24V DC
power source.
The display will automatically show the current internal cabinet temperature.
For optimal performance and efficiency, it is important that the fridge has a reliable DC
power source available. Direct connection to the battery is recommended and reduces the
risk of voltage dropping to the appliance.
Use only the DC power cable supplied with the fridge. IMPORTANT: lf a DC extension
cable is required, we recommended a 6 mm diameter (AWG11) 4.58 mm2 twin-sheath
two-core cable with direct connection to the positive and negative battery terminals with
15A inline fuse protection.
The fridge will turn on automatically. There is no need to switch the appliance on.
DC input 12V/24 V DC (e.g., vehicle cigarette lighter or car battery)
