Your Unique fridge, like any battery-powered refrigerating appli-
ance, requires different care than appliances plugged into an elec-
tric utility. Prudent operation is the key to extended service.
STARTING THE FRIDGE
After the fridge has been properly connected to the 12 or 24 VDC
power source, the compressor will automatically turn on and the
cabinet will begin cooling. Allow the cabinet to cool for at least 4
hours prior to adding foodstuff.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The temperature within the fridge and
freezer compartments is controlled by
the thermostat situated on the inside
of the fridge area. When you first start
the fridge we suggest that you turn
the thermostat to a maximum setting
(7) until desired refrigeration tempera-
tures are achieved. The correct internal
temperature setting can be found by
measuring the temperature of the cen-
tral or middle portion in the appliance.
OPERATION
The fridge will run a few degrees colder at high elevations.
*NOTE:
Mechnical temperature controller has a + or - , 0.5 range. The
fridge will run a few degrees colder at high elevations.
