System Controls
Introduction
The unit controls are designed so that the refrigerator and freezer always have "priority" over air
conditioning. If either the refrigerator or freezer should require cooling while the air conditioner is
activated the A/C will automatically switch off while the refrigerator/freezer holdover-plates are
re-frozen. Once cooling is no longer needed by the refrigerator, the unit automatically returns to
air conditioning duty. See “Basic Operation of System Priority” for further information.
Standard Control - Timer
The standard control is a mechanical timer. Cruisers on a strict energy "diet" find that this control
allows them to closely monitor the amount of energy devoted to air conditioning. The timer
control does not respond to air temperature. To activate ARCTIC AIR simply turn the knob to the
number of hours you wish to run the system. For continuous operation, turn the knob to the
"hold" setting.
Optional Digital Thermostat
The optional digital thermostat controls air conditioner operation based on the ambient air
temperature. The choice of sensor location is important in obtaining an accurate average cabin
air temperature. By extending the wires running between the sensor and the control, the sensor
may be located anywhere in the cabin. The best location is often found to be near the ARCTIC
AIR intake grill. Setting the digital thermostat is identical to that of the standard thermostat on
the refrigerator/freezer system. A description of the control programming procedure can be
found in the Controls section starting on page 45.
