can be frozen to –10 °C to –18 °C in the freezer compartment. You can use the
variable thermostat to set the desired temperature.
The refrigerator is suitable for use with 12 V or 24 V DC voltage and can therefore also
be used e.g. for mobile homes, caravans or on boats. It can also be connected to a
100 – 240 V mains supply.
When used on boats the refrigerator can be subjected to a constant inclination of
30°.
