How Level Does 12-Volt RV Refrigerator Need To Be?

Question:

Does the Everchill need the same leveling as propane/electric models of fridges?

Just like the propane/electric models, in order for the liquid refrigerant to flow throughout the unit properly, the EverChill Refrigerator # 324-000119 will need to be mounted within 3 degrees off level side to side and 6 degrees off level front to back. Generally speaking if the RV/trailer is level enough for your comfort it is likely okay for the refrigerator too.

I’ve searched the web over and over and cannot find anybody who has definitely stated that you can pull a 12 V refrigerator while you’re driving down the road. You’re going to be going up and down hills you’re going to be going around corners and it seems like it would mess up the compressor in your 12 V refrigerator as you pulled it down the road. But on the other hand Those guys at Bish in their video on 12 V refrigerator do insinuate that you can run down the road and recharge your batteries while the refrigerator is running and keeping your food cool. Which is it? Can or can you not run your 12 V refrigerator as you drive down the road? You can search the Internet up and down and you will not get that answer. And another thing they keep sending you to searches that involved Propaine and inverted powered refrigerators. I specifically typed in over and over again in different forms 12 V refrigerator only. I think the 12 V refrigerator companies are purposely hiding or redirecting your search so you will not get the answer. If anyone has any information on pulling a 12 V refrigerator with it running down the road and not screwing up the compressor just let me know please
