Hi, ours looks like the same fridge , is it an Electrolux? Should be written on ice tray partof fridge? Should be 3way 240/12v and gas, the switch will just switch it on wether you're running 12v or on a 240 hookup, these are narrower than most fridges as I found out after building my interior to suit the fridge and then it started playing up!

will try find the model tomorrow as not near van at mo, if it runs on 240v is that because 240 is charging the leisure batt but the fridge is running of 12v still?

im going to pull it out tomorrow and have a look what cables go to it and trace them back

im one for knowing how things work and wont just accept that they do lol

thanks for info

Looks like an Electrolux RM120 or RM122 fridge. These are both 2-way models. Instruction manuals for these fridges are on this page:

Electrolux RM212 is the 3-way model (see above link for this manual as well).
