Nauti Dog has two internal 12v refrigerators, a 12v freezer and a small 12v fridge in
the cockpit for drinks. These systems are designed to run 24hrs a day if you wish. To
ensure that it does not fail there are two things you should do.
Firstly, keep your batteries charged. If the level goes below 12v the system will
malfunction. Refer to section 12 for charging instructions.
Secondly, do not puncture the cold plate in your fridge! Do not chip at the ice or
use any other sharp items in the fridge. If something is frozen to the side of
the fridge do not force it away. Pour warm water on it if you need to melt the ice.
There is a thermostat in the upper fridge. It is a white dial with numbers on it going
from 1-7. Putting 7 at the apex of the dial is the coldest setting. Keep it on this setting
until it is too cold. Then you can turn the system down or off if you wish. Or if it is not
cold enough, augment the system with ice.
The thermostat for the fridge/freezer unit is on the fwd upper face.
Ask one of our staff for a deck cooler if you would like one for storing your drinks. It
will keep the drinks cooler and the refrigeration colder, as people will not be going in it
every 5 minutes for a drink.
Please note that we are in the tropics, and we cannot guarantee that items will remain
frozen when placed in the fridge and that fruit, vegetables and other fresh produce
may have a shortened shelf life.
