Setting up and connecting the freezer
6.2
Releasing the lock
The freezer has a locking mechanism (fig. 4 1, page 4) which is also used
to protect it during transport. The following settings are possible:
Caution
Only adjust the locking mechanism when the door is open. If you
use it with the door closed, you will damage the device.
Lock (turn wheel clockwise to the end stop): The door is closed and
locked.
To open the door, lift the handle up and open the door.
Vent (turn wheel anti-clockwise to the end stop): The door is slightly open
and fixed in place.
Use this position, if you are not going to use the appliance for a long time.
6.3
Changing the door hinge
You can also change the hinge of the door, so that it opens to the left rather
than the right.
➤ Proceed as shown in fig. 5, page 5 to fig. 7, page 5, to change the
hinges.
6.4
Connecting to a battery
The freezer can be operated with a 12 V to 24 V DC voltage supply.
To prevent voltage and power losses, the cable should be as short
as possible and not be interrupted.
For this reason avoid additional switches, plugs or socket strips.
➤ Determine the required cross section of the cable in relation to the cable
length according to fig. 8, page 6.
