1. Installation
• Your EvaKool Fridge/Freezer is designed to operate from either a 12V or 24V DC power
source. It can also operate from a 240V (AC) main supply with the use of a 12V/24V
adaptor.
• When using solar power or power generators ensure that the fridge is connected
through a 12V or 24V battery. We recommend the use of anti-surge devices when there is
a possibility of ‘spikes’ from the power source.
• The recommended manner to connect your fridge is illustrated below.
•
Please note:
The fridge is set to cut off immediately when the voltage drops below the
sustainable level so as to protect your battery, compressor and internal circuitry. It will
start automatically when adequate power is restored.
• For maximum efficiency we recommend the fridge is installed on a level surface,
although, if necessary it will operate on surfaces up to an angle of 30°.
•
IMPORTANT
- DO NOT block air flow to your fridge. Ventilation is very important to
ensure efficiency and reliability. Poor ventilation will cause the compressor to overheat
and hence reduce its life span and efficiency.
