IN-LINE FUSE
A 15A in-line fuse is provided with this freezer in order to protect the
wiring. For 12V/24V operation, use a 15A fuse. A standard automo-
bile fuse is recommended and the fuse should be wired to the posi-
tive (“+”) side of the system close to the positive battery terminal.
A 15A fuse is provided with this freezer.

ATTENTION
If a longer connection cable is necessary, the cable cross section
(or gauge) must be equal to or greater than the cable sizes recom-
mended on the following table. Be careful that the input voltage at
the appliance does not drop below the cut-out voltage of the com-
pressor.

LOW VOLTAGE DISCONNECT
The compressor electronics includes a low voltage disconnect fea-
ture. If the input voltage to the appliance falls below 10.4V (in 12 V
mode) or 22.8V (in 24 V mode), the compressor will shut-o. Once
the voltage increases above 11.7V (in 12V mode) or 24.2V (in 24V
mode), the compressor will resume normal operation.
This feature is designed to protect the system battery from experi-
encing too low a depth of discharge.
