ELECTRICAL DC CONNECTION The appliance should be left for 2 hours after positioning before it is turned on, in order to allow the refrigerant oil to settle. If the appliance has been handled standing on it’s side or on end, it should be allowed to stand in the normal operating position for 12 hours before turning it on. THE APPLIANCE MUST ONLY BE CONNECTED TO A 12V OR 24 VDC POWER SOURCE, SUCH AS A BATTERY OR CHARGE CONTROLLER. THE UNIT WILL AUTOMATICALLY OPERATE ON EITHER 12 OR 24 VDC.
Low Voltage Disconnect The compressor electronics includes a low voltage disconnect feature. If the input voltage to the appliance falls below 10.4V (in 12 V mode) or 22.8V (in 24 V mode), the compressor will shut-off. Once the voltage increases above 11.7V (in 12V mode) or 24.2V (in 24V mode) at the electronics, the compressor will resume normal operation. This feature is designed to protect the batteryfrom experiencing too low a depth of discharge.
DEFROSTING Before any cleaning or repositioning is carried out, you must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electrical power supply. The SunDanzer appliances are designed with a unique low-frost system that reduces frost buildup on the interior walls. To maintain efficiency for freezers, defrost the cabinet when the ice thickness is more than ¼ inch (6mm). A thorough cleaning at least once a year, inside and out, will help maintain efficient operation and a high standard of hygiene.
