12 Volts DC Connection

This refrigerator model is not designed for 12 volt DC

operation of the cooling system; however, a continuous

12 volt DC must be supplied to the refrigerator to oper-

ate the controls. Use a minimum of a 14 gauge wire

between the battery and refrigerator to supply the con-

trol voltage.

The connection is made to the positive (+) and negative (-)

terminals located at the rear of the refrigerator. (See

FIG. 1).

Correct polarity must be observed when connecting to

the DC supply.

Do not use the chassis or vehicle frame as one of the

conductors. Connect two wires at the refrigerator and

route to the DC supply.

INSTALLING REFRIGERATOR IN

ENCLOSURE

NOTE: DO NOT install the appliance directly on

carpeting. Carpeting must be removed or

protected by a metal or wood panel beneath

the appliance, which extends at least full

width and depth of the appliance.

NOTE: A wood strip must be in place across the upper

opening of the enclosure. The top frame of the refrigera-

tor will be anchored to the wood strip with screws.

See FIG. 10.

The refrigerator must be installed in a substantial enclo-

sure and must be level. When installing the refrigerator

in the enclosure, all areas within the recess in which the

refrigerator is installed must be sealed.

Make sure that there is a complete seal between the

front frame of the refrigerator and the top, sides and

bottom of the enclosure. A length of sealing strip is ap-

plied to the rear surface of the front frame for this pur-

pose, see FIG. 4.

The sealing should provide a complete isolation of the

appliance’s combustion system from the vehicle interior.

NOTE: Be careful not to damage the sealing strip when

the refrigerator is put in place.

Securing the Refrigerator

After the refrigerator is put in place, (ensuring a com-

bustion seal at the front frame), the refrigerator is to be

secured in the enclosure with six screws (not included).

The screws have to be installed in the following order:

STEP 1: Two screws installed through the front base,

which includes the lower front strip installation.

The refrigerator is provided with a lower front strip

(shipped as a loose part). The front strip is to be attached

after the refrigerator is set into the cutout opening.

1. Install the lower front strip by sliding it under the

bottom hinge plate, as shown in FIG. 5. The hinge

plate can be on the right or left side depending on

the door swing.
