Connecting the refrigerator to the power supply

NOTICE!
• To avoid voltage drops and loss of performance, keep the
connection cable as short as possible and not be interrupted.
Therefore avoid additional switches, plugs or power strips.
• Disconnect the cooling device and other electric consumers from
the battery before you connect the battery to a quick charging
device.
Overvoltage can damage the electronics of the device.
The refrigerator can be operated with a 12 V or 24 V DC voltage supply.
For safety reasons, the refrigerator is equipped with an electronic system to prevent
the polarity being reversed. This protects the refrigerator against reversed polarity
when connecting to a battery and against short circuiting.
To protect the battery, the refrigerator switches off automatically if the voltage is
insufficient (see table below).
