Car Battery Protection Voltage Reference

The BougeRV fridge/freezer is equipped with a battery preservation monitor. It has three settings to monitor your battery to prevent a full discharge. The higher the setting the higher the cut-oﬀ voltage will be.When set to HIGH, the battery monitor will provide maximum protection for the battery running the fridge/freezer against excessive/full discharge.When set to LoW, the battery monitor will allow the fridge/freezer to use more of the battery energy.

Voltage	Factory default voltage protection level sets to H Mode
High mode	Medium Mode	Low mode
12V DC	Cut out	11.3V	10.1V	9.6V
Cut in	12.5V	11.4V	10.9V
24V DC	Cut out	24.6V	22.3V	21.3V
Cut in	26.0V	23.7V	22.7V

NOTE:The cut-out is the input voltage in which the fridge/freezer will turn oﬀ at.Cut-in is the input voltage in which the fridge/freezer will turn on at.The battery monitor will shut oﬀ the fridge/freezer as soon as the supply voltage falls below the set level. The fridge/freezer will restart after 2 minutesonce the cut-in voltage is reached.
