12V DC Operation 

 

1.

 

If 110 Volts or LP gas is not available, the freezer can work with DC12V (3-
Way models only).  

2.

 

Make sure that you turn the main power switch (E) to “DC” position. Then 
you can connect the 12VDC power to the terminal block which is available 
in the rear bottom part of the freezer. 

3.

 

DC operation is not as efficient as LP Gas or AC operation. DC electric 
should not be used to initially cool the freezer. Only use DC when the other 
modes are unavailable (for example; while in transit). When you start to use 
AC or gas supply, make sure that you disconnect the DC power input.

device which automatically shuts off the supply of gas if the flame goes out. The
