Safety
It is not possible to anticipate all of the conceivable ways or
conditions under which the refrigerator may be serviced or to
provide cautions as to all of the possible hazards that may result.
Standard and accepted safety precautions and equipment should
be used when working on electrical circuits and handling toxic or
flammable materials. Safety goggles and other required protection
should be used during any process that can cause material
removal, such as when removing a leaking cooling unit and
cleaning components.
Read this manual carefully and understand the contents before
working on the refrigerator. Be aware of possible safety hazards
when you see the safety alert symbol on the refrigerator and in this
manual. A signal word follows the safety alert symbol and identifies
the danger of the hazard. Carefully read the descriptions of these
signal words to fully know their meanings. They are for your safety.
CAUTION! This signal word means a hazard, which if ignored,
can cause small personal injury or much property damage.
WARNING! This signal word means a hazard, which if ignored,
can cause dangerous personal injury, death.
All electrical connections and repairs to the refrigerator must com-
ply with all applicable codes. Refer to the certification and code
requirements section of the Installation Manual.
Turn off DC power sources before attempting to remove, service,
or repair any of the refrigerator’s electrical or electronic compo-
nents. Do not work on live electrical circuits.
Do not modify, bypass, or eliminate any of the refrigerator’s electri-
cal components or electronic circuits.
Do not wet or spray liquids on or near electrical outlets, connec-
tions or components. Most liquids, including leak detection solu-
tions, are electrically conductive and pose the potential for an elec-
tric shock hazard, short electrical components, damage electronic
circuits, and/or ignite a fire.
Do not use leak test solutions that contain ammonia or chlorine.
Ammonia and chlorine degrade copper and brass components.

Ventilation
This refrigerator is made for a built-in installation.
The following maximum clearance are necessary for correct
ventilation.
Bottom 0 inch min. 0 inch max.
Each Side 0 inch min. 0 inch max.
Top 0 inch min. 0 inch max.
Rear 0 inch min. 1 .5 inch max.
Correct ventilation is necessary for the correct operation of the
refrigerator and to increase the life of the refrigerator cooling unit.
Ventilation allows the natural air flow that is necessary for good
refrigeration. Cooler air comes in through the left side of the vent,
goes around the refrigerator coils where it removes the excess
heat from the refrigerator components, and goes out through the
right side of the vent. If this air flow is blocked or decreased, the
refrigerator will not cool correctly.
CAUTION: The refrigerator has a built-in vent at the top of the
cabinet. Make sure that the air flow through this vent is not blocked in any
way. Blockage of air through this vent can cause:
• shortened life of the refrigerator cooling unit.
• poor cooling performance of the refrigerator.
• continuous operation of the refrigerator.
• fast battery discharge.
• void of the refrigerator warranty.
!
Electrical Connections
This refrigerator operates on DC electrical sources. Operation out
of these limits may damage the refrigerator’s electrical circuit parts
and will void the warranty.
Make no changes to any of the electrical wiring supplied with the
refrigerator. Any changes that you would make to the electrical
wiring will void the warranty.
Connect the 12/24 volts DC supply
To reduce the risk of electrical interference from other DC
appliances and induction from voltage spikes:
■The refrigerator must have an independent 12/24 volt DC sup-
ply.
■Route the DC power supply wires including the fuse directly
from the battery to the refrigerator.
■Twist the DC power supply wires from the battery to the refrig-
erator.
NOTE: The electronic unit is protected against reverse
battery connection. For protection during installation, a
fuse must be mounted in the + cable as close to the battery
as possible. A 15A fuse for the 12V and a 15A fuse for
the 24V circuits are recommended. If the main switch is
used, it should be rated to a current of min. 20A. The wire
dimensions must be observed. Avoid extra junctions in the
power supply system to prevent voltage drop from affecting
the battery protection setting.
CAUTION: Do not use a converter or a battery charger to supply
the DC power to the refrigerator. These devices do not supply filtered DC
power. When using a converter or a battery charger, make sure a battery
is in-line between them and the refrigerator.
As the distance from the vehicle battery to the refrigerator
increases, the correct AWG wire size also increases. If the wire is
too small for the distance, a voltage drop occurs. The voltage drop
decreases the cooling performance of the refrigerator.
WARNING: Use only the recommended wire size.
1. Measure the distance from the vehicle battery to the refrigerator
to determine the minimum wire size to use.
Distance Minimum Wire Size
0 -12 feet #12AWG min.
12-20 feet #10AWG min.
more than 20 feet #8AWG min.
2. To protect the DC power supply wiring, install a 15 Amp fuse or
circuit breaker in the positive (+) DC power supply wire as close
to the battery as possible.
3. Connect the DC power supply wires. (See Fig. 6).
NOTE: If the DC power supply wires are attached
incorrectly, the refrigerator will no operate.
■Connect the positive (+) DC power supply lead to the red
wire [99] of the refrigerator.
■Connect the negative (-) DC power supply lead to the black
wire [224] of the refrigerator.
■Make sure that:
!
!

DC558

www.norcold.com
• Each DC power supply lead is attached to the correct polar-
ity wire of the refrigerator power supply.
• The chassis or the vehicle frame is not used as one of the
conductors.
• The DC power supply wires including the fuses are routed
directly from the battery to the refrigerator.
• The wire connections are tight and free of corrosion.
■If any of these items are not correct, a voltage will occur and
decrease the cooling performance of the refrigerator.
CAUTION: Disconnect the positive (+) DC power supply wire
from the battery before you do a “fast charge” of the battery. Failure to
disconnect the positive (+) power supply wire from the battery during
a “fast charge” can cause damage to the refrigerator or to other DC
appliances.

Sécurité
Il n’est pas possible de prévoir toutes les façons ou conditions dans
lesquelles l’entretien du réfrigérateur sera effectué ou de mettre en
garde contre tous les dangers possibles pouvant en résulter. Des
précautions de sécurité et des équipements standard et approuvés
doivent être utilisés lors de travaux sur des circuits électriques et
lors de la manipulation de matériaux toxiques ou inflammables.
Portez des lunettes de sécurité et autres moyens de protection
lors de toute procédure pouvant provoquer une fuite de matériel,
comme l’enlèvement d’une unité de refroidissement qui fuit ou le
nettoyage de composantes.
Lisez attentivement ce manuel et prenez le temps d’en comprendre
le contenu avant de travailler sur le réfrigérateur. Prenez
conscience des risques en matière de sécurité lorsque vous voyez
un symbole d’alerte sur le réfrigérateur et dans ce manuel. Un mot
d’avertissement suit le symbole d’alerte de sécurité et identifie le
danger en question. Lisez attentivement les mises en garde qui les
accompagnent. Elles sont là pour votre sécurité.
ATTENTION! Ce mot d’avertissement désigne un risque qui,
s’il est ignoré, peut entraîner de légères blessures personnelles ou des
dommages matériels.
AVERTISSEMENT! Ce mot d’avertissement désigne un
risque qui, s’il est ignoré, peut entraîner de graves blessures personnelles
ou la mort.
Toutes les connexions électriques et les réparations du réfrigérateur
doivent être conformes aux codes en vigueur. Veuillez consulter la
section du Manuel d’installation sur l’homologation et les exigences
du code.
Éteindre les sources d’alimentation c.c. avant d’essayer d’enlever,
d’entretenir ou de réparer toute composante électrique ou électro-
nique du réfrigérateur. Ne pas travailler sur des circuits électriques
sous tension.
Ne modifier, contourner ou éliminer aucun composant électrique
ou circuit électronique du réfrigérateur.
Veiller à ne pas mouiller les prises électriques, les connexions ou
les composantes du réfrigérateur et à ne pas pulvériser des liquides
dessus ou à proximité. La plupart des liquides, dont les solutions
de détection de fuites, conduisent l’électricité et présentent un
risque de choc électrique, de court-circuit, de dommage au circuit
électronique, et/ou d’incendie.
Ne pas utiliser de solutions d’essai contenant de l’ammoniac ou
du chlore. L’ammoniac et le chlore dégradent les composantes en
cuivre et en laiton.
L’unité de refroidissement du réfrigérateur est pressurisée! Ne pas
essayer de réparer ni de recharger une unité de refroidissement
défectueuse. Ne pas plier, laisser tomber, souder, percer, perforer,
scier ou frapper l’unité de refroidissement.
Ne pas utiliser de rallonges électriques. Ne pas enlever la lame de
mise à la terre du cordon électrique c.a. du réfrigérateur. Ne pas
utiliser un adaptateur à deux lames pour brancher le réfrigérateur
dans une prise électrique c.a.
Ne pas utiliser des fusibles de trop fort calibre. Utiliser seulement
les fusibles et les calibres de fils AWG spécifiés. La section de
caractéristiques techniques de ce manuel indique la taille des
fusibles. Se reporter au Manuel d’installation pour les spécifications
concernant le calibre AWG des fils.
Éviter qu’un enfant puisse se trouver enfermé! Avant de jeter tout
vieux réfrigérateur, enlever les portes et fixer les étagères.
S’assurer que tous les éléments de quincaillerie comme les
charnières et les fixations (vis de retenue, etc.) sont bien fixés.

Seguridad
No es posible prever todas las formas o condiciones bajo las cuales
se realiza el mantenimiento del refrigerador o advertir contra todos
los posibles peligros que pueden derivarse. Al trabajar con circuitos
eléctricos y manipular materiales tóxicos o inflamables, respete
las precauciones y utilice los equipos de seguridad estándares
aprobados. El usuario debe ponerse anteojos de seguridad y otros
protectores requeridos para realizar cualquier labor que pueda
implicar la extracción de materiales, p. ej., al sacar una unidad
refrigerante que tenga fugas y al limpiar componentes.
Lea este manual detenidamente y asegúrese de entender el
contenido antes de trabajar en el refrigerador. Preste atención a
posibles riesgos de seguridad cuando vea el símbolo de alerta de
seguridad en el refrigerador y en este manual. A continuación de
los símbolos de alerta de seguridad figura una palabra de aviso
que identifica el peligro. Lea detenidamente las descripciones
de estas palabras de aviso para entender plenamente sus
significados. Estas palabras se usan para preservar su seguridad.
¡PRECAUCIÓN! Esta palabra de aviso significa que hay un
riesgo que, de no respetarse, puede causar lesiones corporales leves o
daños a los bienes materiales.
¡ADVERTENCIA! Esta palabra de aviso significa que hay un
riesgo que, de no respetarse, puede causar lesiones corporales graves o
la muerte.
Todas las conexiones y reparaciones eléctricas efectuadas en el
refrigerador deben cumplir con todos los códigos correspondientes.
Consulte la sección Requisitos de certificación y normativa en el
Manual de instalación.
Desconecte las fuentes de alimentación de CC antes de tratar
de quitar, efectuar el mantenimiento o reparar alguno de los
componentes eléctricos o electrónicos del refrigerador. No trabaje
en circuitos eléctricos con corriente.
No modifique, omita ni elimine ninguno de los componentes
eléctricos ni circuitos electrónicos del refrigerador.
No moje ni rocíe líquidos en tomacorrientes, conexiones o
componentes eléctricos o en sus alrededores. La mayoría de
los líquidos, incluidas las soluciones de detecciones de fugas,
conducen la electricidad y acarrean riesgos de descarga eléctrica,
cortocircuito de los componentes eléctricos, daño de los circuitos
electrónicos e incendios.
Al hacer pruebas de fugas, no utilice soluciones que contengan
amoniaco o cloro. El amoniaco y el cloro degradan los componentes
de cobre y latón.
¡La unidad refrigerante es un sistema sellado a presión! No trate
de repararla ni recargarla. No doble, haga caer, suelde, taladre,
perfore, sierre ni golpee la unidad refrigerante.
No use cables de alargamiento/extensión. No quite la clavija de
puesta a tierra del cable de alimentación de CA. No use un adaptador
de dos clavijas para conectar el refrigerador a la toma de CA.
No instale fusibles que admitan mayor electricidad que la
establecida en los circuitos eléctricos. Use los fusibles y cables
de calibre AWG especificados. La sección de especificaciones de
este manual proporciona información del tamaño de los fusibles.
Consulte en el Manual de instalación las especificaciones de los
tamaños correctos de cables AWG.
¡Impida que los niños queden atrapados! Antes de desechar el
refrigerador, quite todas las puertas y sujete todos los estantes
con retenedores.
Asegúrese de que todos los herrajes (como bisagras y elementos
de sujeción, tornillos de retención, etc.) estén debidamente sujetos.
