Installation

To confi rm that installation is adequate, make sure that:
■ Ventilation is adequate. Refer to "Ventilation" section.
■ Electrical components are installed and operating in a safe
condition.
■ Refrigerator is installed on a solid and level fl oor (not on carpet)
and secured.
■ The fl oor is able to support the weight of the refrigerator and all
of its contents.

Ventilation

Overview

The refrigerator is made for a built-in installation. Correct ventila-
tion is necessary for the correct operation of the refrigerator and to
increase the life of the refrigerator cooling system.
Vents allow the natural fl ow of air that is necessary for good venti-
lation. Cooler air comes in through the lower vent, goes around the
refrigerator coils where it removes the excess heat from the refrig-
erator components, and goes out through the upper vent / control
cover. If this air fl ow is blocked or decreased, the refrigerator will
not cool correctly. Do not install the refrigerator in a completely
enclosed area such as a closet or a cabinet.
The refrigerator has built-in vents at

the air fl ow through these vents is not
blocked in any way. Blockage of the air
fl ow through these vents can:
● Shorten the life of the
● Cause poor cooling performance of the

Electrical Connections

120 / 220 Volts AC Electrical Connection

The refrigerator AC power cord is equipped with a three-prong
plug for protection against shock hazard. It must be plugged into a
grounded three-prong receptacle.
WARNING
!
ATTENTION
• Make sure that the AC power cord is plugged into a ground-
ed three-prong receptacle.

12 / 24 Volts DC Electrical Connection

To reduce the risk of electrical interference from other DC appli-
ances and induction from voltage spikes:
• The refrigerator must have an independent 12/ 24 volt sup-
ply and not be on the same circuit as other DC appliances.
• Route the DC power supply wires, including the fuses,
directly from the battery to the refrigerator.
• Twist the DC supply wires between the battery and the
refrigerator.
WARNING
!
ATTENTION

Polarity

! CAUTION
■ Connect the DC (positive) supply wire from the battery to the
red wire of the refrigerator
■ Connect the DC (negative) supply wire from the battery to the
black wire of the refrigerator.
8
Do not remove (cut) grounding plug from
the refrigerator AC power cord. Re-
moval of this prong can result in a severe
electrical shock, as well as voiding the
refrigerator's electrical certifi cation and
warranty.
Do not use a converter or a battery char-
ger to supply DC voltage to the refrigera-
tor. These devices do not supply fi ltered
DC power. When using a converter or a
battery charger, make sure a battery is
in-line between them and the refrigerator.
If the DC leads are installed incorrectly,
the refrigerator will not operate.
