Default 12 V fridge

I have a 1999 3300 SCR and my refrigerator works fine in 110V when plugged in but it doesn't run off 12V and I see nowhere to switch over on the panel. Generator is temporarily out of service but I can't find anything to run fridge off 12V. I'm told it should switch automatically but it doesn't.
Thanks,
Pete

Pull the fridge and check the onboard circuit breaker in the back. There is no manual switch on the dual-volt fridges. They are auto-sensing. While it's pulled, use a volt meter to verify you're getting 12vdc to the fridge.

Thank you. Didn't think you would have to pull the fridge but thanks for the assist.

My 3200 scr fridge has a 12v switch on the bottom front of the fridge, just below the fridge door. Also has a knob there to adjust the temp of the fridge. Not sure if the 3300 is the same or not.

If the power switch were off then neither DC nor AC would work. Here AC works fine, but DC isn't working. Technically the battery switch would also need to be on in order for the DC to work as well. I assuming both the battery switch and the fridge power switches are on.
