REFRIGERATOR
The cabin refrigerator operates on 120/12 volts. It is con-
trolled by a breaker located on the main AC control panel.
The refrigerator is fitted with a manually operated, infi-
nitely-variable thermostat. Turn the knob clockwise to re-
duce the temperature and counterclockwise to increase the
temperature. See the illustration. It may take a little fine
tuning to reach the particular setting you desire.

TYPICAL REFRIGERATOR
When the ice layer approaches 1/8” the unit needs to be
defrosted. Turn the thermostat off. Transfer all items from
the refrigerator to keep them cold while the unit is de-
frosting. Do not use sharp or metal objects to remove the
ice. When the defrosting cycle is complete, empty the drip
pan under the freezer compartment. Clean the inside of
any food residues with a damp cloth and a mild cleaner.
Rinse and let dry.
Turn the thermostat back on and restock the unit with the
cold storage items you removed. This will help the unit
cool down much faster.
When left for extended periods of time, be sure to leave
the door partially open for ventilation purposes.
For more detailed information, refer to the manufacturer’s
manual in the owner’s pouch.
To turn off the galley refrigerator if equipped simply de-
activate the refrigerator switch on the DC cabin panel or
turn the knob inside the refrigerator to “off ”.
To turn off the cockpit refrigerator turn off the knob in-
side the refrigerator or turn the starboard battery switch to
the “off ” position. By turning off the starboard battery
switch the shower sump pump is inactive.
Use the same procedure to deactivate the cockpit icemaker.

HATCHES/PORTLIGHTS
The hatches feature remov-
able screen/sunshades. To
open a hatch, turn the hold
down adjuster counter-
clockwise to unlock it. This
permits the hatch to open
when the three latches are
turned to clear the hatch.
Press the lock to the open
position. Push the hatch to the desired opening angle
and then turn the hold down adjuster clockwise to se-
cure hatch. To close the hatch, reverse the procedure.
Make sure the latches are completely closed to prevent
any possible leaks.
To open or close a hull side portlight, move the latches
while applying a slight pressure on the portlight itself. Be
careful not to let the screen fall overboard.
MICROWAVE
Since this unit operates
the same as a household
microwave, specific in-
structions can be found by
referring to the s manual
located in the owner’s
pouch.
