On the 26 XO, is there a way to shut off the fridge when the boat's 12 volt mains are engaged? My dealer told me there isn't, and that the only way to achieve "off" when running on 12 volt is to move the thermostat setting to "0". That struck me as a little strange because the owner's manual instructs that: "{A} separate switch that simultaneously disconnects the power cables must be installed upstream from the refrigerator." From what my dealer described there is no such switch - which I would normally expect to be a breaker - in there.
The 26 XO has a 120 volt panel for a/c, but it does not have one for 12 volt. I am not used to this. Every boat with a cabin that I have ever owned has had both 12v and 120v panels. I've always just shut off the breaker on the 12v panel when I wanted to turn off the fridge.
Is there something obvious that I am missing?
Any 26 XO owner's out there that can chime in?
