Plugged in all season for the fridge to stay cool. A local rebuilder told me the fridges cooling unit last longer if not turned on and off often because of expansion and contraction. Since we go camping every two weeks or more, we leave it on with all the condiments and staples inside.
A certified master technician I worked with at a major RV dealer and service department has always said to leave the fridge on all the time, that it will last longer than turning it on and off. Less chance for the chemical mixture in the cooling unit to sit and allow corrosion for form.
Of course if anytime your running the fridge, but sure the rig is level when parked.
