When using your refrigerator for the first time,
it is advisable to wash the interior and its
accessories.
When the caravan is on tow, the refrigerator
should be operated electrically, i.e. from the
12V battery in the towing vehicle, and not by
means of bottled gas.
CONTROLS
The refrigerator can be run on either 230V,
12V or LP gas. Changing between these
modes of operation is carried out by means
of the controls shown on the relevant control
panel.
Caution!
Only use one source of energy at a time.
