Power Requirements; Defrosting The Cabinet - COMPANION COMP755D - 55L Instruction Manual

Installation & operation
of your DualZone
Freezer/Refrigerator
It is important that your appliance is installed and
operated in accordance with the manufacturer's
instructions to guarantee the performance, efficiency
and operation.
• Position the appliance in a safe & secure location.
Limit exposure to heat sources or direct sunlight
which can affect the unit's performance and
efficiency.
• The normal operation of the appliance requires
heat to be radiated away from the condensers
located in the end of the cabinet. Adequate airflow
is required to be available around the compressor
at all times.
• The cooling system has been designed to operate
correctly when the appliance is positioned on
angles up to 35 degrees. It is recommended that
the time the unit is exposed to angles over 30
degrees is limited to a maximum of four (4) hours
continuous operation.
Important
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.
• This appliance is suitable for camping use.
• The appliance shall not be exposed to rain.

Power requirements

The DualZone Freezer/Refrigerator is designed to
operate on AC & DC voltage inputs.
AC Input – Voltage is required to be
220-240V AC at 50Hz
DC Input – Voltage is required to be
12 or 24V DC +/-10%
The power system is fitted with an Automatic Voltage
change over program; this will allow for both the AC &
DC power cords to be connected to the appliance at the
same time. The AC power input has priority and the unit
will select this input over DC if both are being provided.
Once the AC power is shut off the appliance will then
switch over to DC power. The compressor will not
start immediately as the controller will program itself
for the change in supply and within 3 minutes the unit
will restart using the DC input. This same process will
be taken if AC power is resupplied to the appliance.

Defrosting the cabinet

If your appliance is being used solely as a freezer, it
is possible that a build up of ice on the interior may
occur. This build up can affect the performance &
efficiency of the cooling system and must be removed.
Do not use solid or sharp utensils such as knives to
remove the ice as this may result in damage to the
unit. Turn the appliance off and remove the content
from the cabinet, allow the ice to melt, then drain the
water from the cabinet. Use a soft clean cloth to wipe
down all surfaces and allow to dry.
