1.1 General
Isotherm refrigerators are specially designed to operate
in tough marine environments. They are fi tted with a fully
hermetic, leak-free compressor, they offer the lowest
possible power consumption and noise level. All models
are simple to install. They can withstand an angle of heel
up to 30°, for a short time. To ensure that your Isotherm

these general guidelines:
• Unnecessary opening of the fridge door will increase
power consumption.

Always use a separate starter battery for the engine.
Follow carefully the guidelines regarding electrical
cable areas and fuse placements.

dry. Remove any water from condensation that may
have collected in the drip tray or the plastic basket.

water and a mild detergent before taking the fridge
into operation the fi rst time.
