In order for me to shut off my fridge when I'm not using it I must first shut off the inverter in the basement. Then go inside and shut the breaker off to the kitchen. If you don't shut off the inverter first, once you shut the breaker off inside the main panel, the transfer switch below will immediately switch power over to the batteries. And your fridge stays on. So make sure the basement switch is OFF, then flip your breaker inside at the main panel to OFF as well. You would think they would tell you this when you bought it. But I was told to leave it on all the time. That makes no sense at all.

I leave mine on all the time when travelling or on shore power, as if there is a power outage, the batteries will take over and keep the fridge running. Maybe that's why they said to leave it on all the time.
