Select the desired cooling compartment tem-
perature by turning the rotary knob (2) .
The scale starts with MIN position (small bar =
highest temperature) and climbs up to MAX
position (large bar = lowest temperature).
Note: The temperature levels do not relate to
absolute temperature values.
12V: The refrigerator operates without thermo-
static control (continuous operation).
The cooling unit's performance is influenced
by ambient temperatures. Please select the
medium setting for ambient temperatures bet-
ween 59°F (+15°C) and 77°F (+25°C) (refer to
Fig. 13, temperature level 3). The unit operates
within its optimum performance range.
Dometic refrigerators work according to the
absorption principle. For physical reasons, an
absorption system responds slowly to
changes made by the thermostat controller, by
loss of cooling energy through opening the
door or during storing food. The devices meet
the cooling performance requirements of the
Climatic Class SN acc. to EN/ISO 7371 in the
temperature range of 50°F (+10°C) to 89.6°F
(+32°C) ambient temperature.
For temperatures below 50°F (10°C), winter
covers should be installed. For ambient
temperatures exceeding 89.6°F (32°C) for a
longer period of time, it is recommended
installing a Dometic additional fan.

4.3.4 Energy-saving tips

At an average ambient temperature of
77°F (25°C), it is sufficient to operate the
refrigerator at middle thermostat setting.
Where possible, always store precooled
products.
Do not expose the refrigerator to direct
sunlight.
Ensure that air circulation of the cooling unit
is not obstructed.
Defrosting at regular intervals saves energy
( see section 4.11 "Defrosting").
Open the refrigerator door only for a short
period of time when removing products.
Run the refrigerator for about 12 hours
before filling it.

4.3.5 Forced ventilation

To achieve a better air circulation at high
ambient temperatures, this appliance is equip-
ped with an additional fan (1).
