adequate wiring (4mm to 6mm wire) connected via an in-line
fuse (minimum 15A) to the vehicle’s battery.
In vehicles equipped with dual-battery systems, it is preferable to
connect this socket to the auxiliary battery.
The supplied cable is suitable for two types of DC sockets ;
the more common “cigarette lighter” socket or the “Hella” type
socket. In order to fit the cable to the “Hella” socket, remove the
RED cap.
If the cable is used in the “cigarette lighter” socket, the RED cap
must be securely clipped in place.

Fuse replacement
If the Weekender fails to operate when
mains voltage is applied, check the input
fuse located under the power connection
point.
Slide the fuse draw open with a flat object
such as a screwdriver and remove the
fuse.
Replace fuse with same type and rating
to ensure safe operation. (3.15A 250V)
The Weekender can operate from a 12 volt battery or
230 Vac mains power.
To operate the Weekender on mains power, connect
the supplied cable to the 3-pin input on the side of the
refrigerator and then the the 230V supply.
Ensure the plug is correctly inserted in order to prevent
poor connections.
When using battery power, simply connect the polarised
DC cable to the corresponding input on the Weekender
and plug into the vehicles’ DC supply or to a fully-
charged battery.
230V AC
12V DC
Note that both 12V DC and 230V mains
can be connected at the same time.
When this is done, the Weekender will
automatically run on mains power.
If mains power is interrupted, the
Weekender will automatically switch to
DC power.
