plug. The free length of the cord is 2 feet and therefore
recommended that the receptacle be located to the right side
of the refrigerator (viewed from the rear) and approximately
6 inches from the floor (see FIG. 7). This allows easy access
through the vent door. The cord should be routed to avoid
direct contact with the burner cover, flue cover or any other
components that could damage the cord insulation.

11. 12 VOLT DC CONNECTION
This refrigerator model is not designed for 12 volt DC
operation of the cooling system; however, 12 volt DC must
be supplied to the refrigerator to operate the controls. Use
a minimum of a 14 gauge wire between the battery and
refrigerator to supply the control voltage. The connection is
made to the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of the
terminal block on back of refrigerator (See FIG. 6). The 12
volt DC supply circuit must be fused, and the maximum fuse
size is 5 amps.
DO NOT use the body or chassis of the vehicle as a
substitute for either of the two conductors. Do not connect
any other electrical equipment of lighting to the refrigerator
circuit.
CAUTION
The 12 volt DC control circuit must be connected directly
to a battery. Connecting the control circuit to an
unregulated converter can result in improper operation
of the refrigerator.
