5.2. Operating from 12 Volt vehicle battery Make sure the voltage shown on the data plate of the appliance matches the voltage of the vehicle battery (12V). In 12V operation, the appliance runs continuously without temperature control. The appliance is supplied with a matching pair of 12 Volt MALE + FEMALE plugs (see 9,2 connection to vehicle power source).
6. Useful suggestions When setting out on a trip, run the appliance on 240 V for 24 hours prior to departure. Place food in a pre-cooled condition into the appliance. Frost forms on the evaporator panel when in operation. When opening the lid or putting in food, some of this frost melts and collects in the form of water on the bottom of the appliance.
8. Trouble shooting Connecting to 240 Volt electrical mains Before calling a service technician please check Make sure no other energy source is connected carefully the operating instructions, service booklet (gas, 12V). and the warranty terms and conditions: The appliance may only be operated from nominal Are location and ventilation satisfactory? voltage mains as shown on the data plate.
9.2 Connecting to 12 Volt vehicle battery Make sure no other energy source is connected (gas, 240V). The 12V female socket is on the backwall of the appliance, while the male plug is an accessory supplied with your new RC1180. Connect the wires from the 12 Volt battery to the male plug (see recommended 12 Volt wiring for vehicle).
Connection of gas supply The gas bottle (Propane) may only be used in an upright position and particular care must be taken Always connect in the following sequence: every time the appliance is connected to the gas GAS BOTTLE → PRESSURE-REGULATOR → bottle to ensure that there are no leaks, that the →...
10. Environmental protection information The appliance does not contain any CFCs. Ammonia (natural hydrogen and nitrogen compound) is used as a refrigerating agent in the refrigeration unit. The ozone-friendly cyclopentane is activated as a motive agent for the PU foam insulation. Sodium chromate is used for corrosion protection (less than 2 weight % of the coolant).
