procedure. Please contact your local authorities in regard to the environmentally safe disposal of
the refrigerator.
Installation
The refrigerator must be located and secured on a solid surface in the vehicle or watercraft.
Before installing the refrigerator into the opening, make sure the DC supply is properly connected.
Measure the opening to determine if you have proper clearance for installation. Additional insulation
space around the refrigerator is not necessary.
Be sure the refrigerator is not in direct sunlight or near a gas stove, a heater, or other heat-generating
appliances. Avoid installing your refrigerator close to warm water lines or warm air ducts.
Your refrigerator was thoroughly cleaned before shipment from the factory. However, it is highly
advised to clean the interior once more before using. Wipe the interior with a cloth and warm water.
Then wipe with a dry cloth.
Ensure the enclosure is the correct size:
- For DC 105 models: 30 inches high x 20.75 inches wide x 20.13 inches deep
Make sure the floor is solid and level:
- The floor of the enclosure must be a wood panel or metal, extending the full width and depth of the
enclosure, and 1⅜ inches beyond the front of the enclosure
- The floor must be able to support the weight of the refrigerator along with its contents
Ensure there are no adjacent heat sources to the refrigerator.
Assemble The Enclosure
This refrigerator is made for a built-in installation. Correct ventilation is necessary to increase the life of
the refrigerator cooling system and for the operation of the refrigerator to work properly.
Ventilation allows the natural air flow that is necessary for good refrigeration. Cooler air comes in
through a lower intake vent, goes around the refrigerator coils, where it removes the excess heat from
the refrigerator components, and goes out through an upper exhaust vent. If this air flow is blocked
or decreased, the refrigerator will not cool correctly. Do not install the vents into completely enclosed
areas.
