USING WITH SOLAR PANEL OR GENERATOR
USING WITH SOLAR PANELS
The power consumption and efficiency of
your Fridge/Freezer makes it ideal to be used
in conjunction with solar panels to provide
recharging of the DC power source. Solar
panels will provide charge into the battery
during the daylight hours even while the
appliance is operating.
As the output from solar panels changes
depending on the level of sunlight and
intensity, your Fridge/Freezer cannot be
connected directly to the solar panels. The
appliance must be connected to a suitable DC
battery and then the solar panels connected to
the battery.
We recommend the use of the quality
regulated portable solar panel kits from 60 to
250 watts for use with your Fridge/Freezer.
DO NOT CONNECT THE FRIDGE/FREEZER
DIRECTLY TO THE SOLAR PANEL AS IT
WILL NOT WORK. CONNECTION MUST BE
VIA THE BATTERY.
USING PORTABLE GENERATORS
It is important that the correct generator size
is used with your Fridge/Freezer. An incorrect
generator or voltage output may result in
reduced performance or damage to your
Fridge/Freezer which may void your appliance
warranty.
If connecting directly to an AC generator,
ensure that
only a digital or inverter type
generator is used.
These provide a more
reliable and constant AC output power
source and are specifically designed for use
with electronic and other power sensitive
appliances.
Most generators are fitted with a DC power
output socket - DO NOT connect your
fridge directly to the DC power output of the
generator as this will result in damage to your
Fridge/Freezer and void warranty.
When charging the battery using a digital or
inverter type generator, we recommend only
using a ‘smart battery charger’ that is fully
automatic, spark proof and reverse polarity
protected. The battery charger is connected
directly to the AC power output socket of the
generator.
