Default how long should it take for refrigerator to cool?

Recently bought 3000scr and it has a Norcold 12\120 volt refrigerator. I'm not sure its working properly. How long does it take to get cold on 12v?

I have a 2001 maxum 3000 SCR also......... Lets see if I can help you...............

do you have both shorepower cords pugged in for 120 use?

Is it turned on? Way back in the top right side there is a knob the you would turn clockwise to turn it on and is also is to set the temp.

You should hear it running. The freezer part should frost alittle.

When you disconnect the shorepower it automatically switches over to 12V is that connected?

I know mine is cold with in the hour so if that is not happening a professional might be needed.

Are you sure the fridge is on? There is a switch inside the fridge. When it is on, there is also a green light next to the ON switch and temp. knob. The breaker on the panel is for 120V shore power only.
