Car Battery Protection(H/M/L) Voltage Reference

The refrigerator is equipped with a battery preservation monitor. There are three levels (H/M/L) to monitor your battery to prevent a full discharge. The higher the level the
higher the cut-off voltage will be.
When set to “High”, the battery monitor will provide maximum protection for the battery running the refrigerator against excessive/full discharge.
When set to “Low”, the battery monitor will allow the refrigerator to use more of the battery energy.

NOTE: Cut out means the input voltage in which the refrigerator will turn off.
Cut in means the input voltage in which the refrigerator will turn on.

The battery monitor will power off the refrigerator as soon as the supply voltage falls below the setting level. The refrigerator will restart after 2 minutes once the cut-in voltage is reached.
