4. INSTALLATION
Place the refrigerator on a dry, protected surface, away from corners. Do not use the refrigerator in
uncovered, outdoor areas or areas exposed to the elements.
• The refrigerator requires good ventilation. Leave a space of at least 15 cm across all its sides.
• Avoid placing the refrigerator near to a heat source, for example a cooker, radiator or exposing it
to direct sunlight.
• Do not place ice or liquids which are not sealed in containers within the refrigerator.
• Do not place hot products within the refrigerator.
The refrigerator is equipped with a power cable, which must be connected to the cigarette lighter
outlet. In the instance where the standard power cable is not used, and the supply comes directly
from the vehicle battery the following cables with suitable sections and lengths must be used (see
Table 2
below).
Direct connection to the battery via a 15 Amp fuse is strongly recommended and reduces the risk of
voltage drop to the fridge.
