POWER SUPPLY
8.3 Amp / 100 Watts when it is operating fully.
There are three plug configurations to operate your oven: 12V, 50 Amp heavy duty connector
and Merit.
This Roadster 12V Portable Oven runs from a 12 volt power supply only. The oven will draw
As most vehicles’ 12V plugs are designed to take a maximum of 10 Amp, this oven is close to the
limit at 8.3 Amp. It is suggested that you hard wire it to your battery using the 50 Amp heavy duty
connector. If you are using the oven regularly or if the 12V socket is old, worn or loose then there
is a higher chance of failure, especially when driving on rough or uneven ground. The 50 Amp
heavy duty connector provides a superior connection and will reduce the chance of a poor
connection heating up and potentially melting the 12V/Merit plugs. The oven cord is fitted with an
inline 15A blade type fuse as well as a secondary 15A glass type fuse within the 12V/Merit plug. If
either fuse does blow then there is most likely a problem that you should diagnose and rectify
before replacing the fuse.
On the front of the oven is an “ON” indicator light. This light will only illuminate when the following
criteria are met:
1. There is power reaching the oven.
2. The oven timer is switched “ON” and is counting down, and/or
3. The temperature gauge is switched “ON”.
The oven is fitted with a thermostat so if the desired temperature is met then the light will go
off, as it is not heating anymore, until the temperature drops and the element comes on.
