Fridge max out-o-level operation?

I don't camp exactly level. It is not something I'm concerned with.
I'd say I get close and a lot closer than some of the tent locations I've had in the past.

Reading fridge manuals, my conclusion is they can be operated unlevel. 3 degrees side to side and 6 degrees front to back. Now that's not much. Most fridges I've seen are on the side wall so 6 degrees front to back translate to side to side leveling of the PU.

I did some math to help understand what 6 or even 3 degrees was! It is more than I expected or have ever camped!

Based on 60 inch wheel center (on the low side), one tire would be 6 inches higer than the other at 6 degrees!

My math suggested     sin 6 = x/60

Fugaddaboutit. If you are comfortable sleeping and walking, your fridge is comfy, too.
