OPERATION
Your Unique fridge, like any battery-powered refrigerating appliance,
requires diff erent care than appliances plugged into an electric
utility. Prudent operation is the key to extended service.
STARTING THE FRIDGE
After the fridge has been properly connected to the 12 or 24V DC
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 foodstu .
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The temperature within the fridge and freezer compartments is
controlled by the thermostat situated on the
inside centre ceiling of the fridge area. When
you fi rst start the fridge we suggest that you
turn the thermostat to a maximum setting (6)
until desired refrigeration temperatures are
achieved. The correct internal temperature
setting can be found by measuring the
temperature of the central or middle portion
in the appliance.
NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERATURE
THERMOSTAT SETTING FRIDGE TEMP. FREEZER TEMP.
Setting = 4
2˚C to 4˚C
35˚F to 39˚F
-10˚C to -15˚C
14˚F to 5˚F
Setting = 6 -3˚C / 26.6˚F -15˚C / 5˚F
The fridge will run a few degrees colder at high elevations.
ADJUSTMENTS
As the ambient temperature changes with the season, it may be
necessary to adjust the thermostat to achieve the proper internal
temperature. If the room/ambient temperature approaches the
appliance’s internal operating temperature, the appliance will not
function as it should. The appliance will tend to run colder during these
conditions and it may be necessary to turn the thermostat to a warmer
setting (lower number). If the room/ambient temperature exceeds
100˚F (38˚C), the appliance will not function as it should. The appliance
will tend to run warmer and it may be necessary to turn the thermostat
to a colder setting (towards the maximum setting).
