This refrigerator operates on these electrical sources. Operation out of these limits may damage the refrigerator's electrical circuit parts
and will void the warranty.
The rear of the refrigerator cooling system has hot surfaces and sharp surfaces that can damage electrical

wiring. Make sure that there is a good clearance between all electrical wiring and the cooling system of the
WARNING
refrigerator. Position any electrical wiring within the refrigerator enclosure opposite the burner side of the
refrigerator. Do not put any electrical wiring through the roof exhaust vent. Failure to correctly position
electrical wiring can result in electrical shock or fire.

Connect the 120 volts AC supply:

Connect the AC power cord only to a grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not remove the round ground
!
prong from the power cord. Do not use a two-prong adapter or an extension cord. Operation of the
WARNING
refrigerator without correct ground can cause dangerous electrical shock or death if you are touching the
metal parts of the refrigerator.
Put the AC power cord into a grounded three-prong receptacle:
- Make sure the receptacle is positioned within easy reach of the lower intake vent.
- Make sure the power cord does not touch the burner cover, the flue pipe, or any hot component that could damage the insulation of
the power cord.

Connect the 12 volts DC supply (3-way models only):

As the distance from the vehicle battery to the refrigerator increases, the correct AWG wire size and fuse size also increases. If the
wire size is too small for the distance, a voltage drop occurs. The voltage drop decreases the output of the system heater and causes
decreased cooling performance.
If you use an incorrect wire size and/or fuse size, electrical fire can result.

WARNING
1. Determine the min. wire size and the max. fuse size to use:
- Measure the distance from the vehicle battery to the refrigerator:
