Operation

This refrigerator is made for refrigerating purposes and operates on 120 volts AC
and 12/24 volts DC power supplies when installed as written in this manual.
NOTE: The refrigerator operates automatically on AC or DC power. When both
power sources are supplied to the refrigerator, it defaults to AC. When
the refrigerator is disconnected from the shoreline power (when AC
power is no longer available), the refrigerator switches to DC operation.
!
CAUTION:
combustible materials near the refrigerator creates a safety hazard and also
decreases the ventilation of the cooling system which decreases the refrigerator
performance.
Do not touch the evaporator or other metal parts inside the refrigerator cabinet
with wet hands because they can freeze to the refrigerator.
Always disconnect all power sources from the refrigerator when doing routine
maintenance. Have service work done only by a qualified service technician.
The refrigerator temperature is controlled by a thermostat, located on the panel above
the door. A green power light, located on the panel comes on when the refrigerator is
"ON". Number "1" is the warmest and number "5" is the coldest thermostat position.
For efficient operation, change the thermostat according to the types of food stored and
the ambient temperature.
If you are not going to use the refrigerator for an extended period of time, put the ther-
mostat to the "OFF" position (full counterclockwise position).
