5. Using the appliance

The cable for mains connection, the 12V connecting

cable  and  the  connector  for  the  gas  hook-up  are

located on the back side of the refrigerator (Figure 3).

5.1. Operating from 120 V AC

Warning: Electrical grounding instructions:

This  appliance  is  equipped  with  a  three-prong

(grounding)  plug  for  your  protection  against  shock

hazards and should be plugged directly into a properly

grounded  three-prong  receptable.  Do  not  cut  or

remove the grounding prong from this plug.
The cord is approximately 5 feet long and a grounded

three-prong  receptable  should  be  installed  in  an

accessible position within reach of the plug. Do not

use any extension cords!
When connecting the appliance for the first time, set

the  thermostat  to  maximum;  then,  after  about  five

hours,  set  it  back  to  a  medium  position.  This  is

suitable for general refrigeration requirements.

NB:  Plug  is  provided  according  to  specific

regulations in each country and may be different to

that shown.

5.2. Operating from vehicle battery

Make sure the voltage shown on the data plate of the

appliance matches the voltage of the vehicle battery

(12V).
12V  DC  voltage  appliances  are  equipped  with

connectors that can be plugged into cigarette lighters

(Figure 4.). For some types of vehicle, you may need

to remove the red plastic ring located on the end of

the connector. To do so, turn the plastic ring in an anti-

clockwise direction and pull it off. The appliance can

then  be  connected  to  the  cigarette  lighter.  In  12V

operation,  the  appliance  runs  uninterrupted  without

temperature control.
For  12V  operation,  make  sure,  if  the  engine  is  not

running, that the appliance connector is removed from

the  cigarette  lighter.  Otherwise,  the  appliance  will

discharge the vehicle battery when in operation.

5.3. Liquid gas operation

Connection  to  the  gas  cylinder  is  described  in

sections 10.3. and 10.4.
After opening the gas cylinder valve, push the safety gas

valve in (Fig. 5.A) and set it to the large flame symbol,

holding  it  in  for  about  10  seconds.  Keep  the  button

pressed and press  the  piezo-igniting  button  (Fig.  5.C)

several times one after the other. If the flame does not

ignite, repeat the process. (Air in the appliance gas line

prior  to  connection  to  the  gas  cylinder  must  be

evacuated. Only then can the gas be lit.) 
If the burner is working the flame indicator pointer will

be in the green field (Fig. 5.D). After you have got the

flame  keep  the  safety  gas  valve  down  another  20

seconds.
If,  for  any  reason,  the  gas  flame  extinguishes,  the

flame safety device is working automatically and shuts
