This refrigerator can be used to keep fresh or frozen food or drinks.
It can be used in places where car or camping can provide 12/24V stable power.
NOTE
Available operating range of the machine
- Working voltage: DC10-28V
- Ambient temperature: 5°C~55°C
- Ambient humidity: 93%
- Storage ambient temperature: -35°C~65°C
FUNCTIONS
- This refrigerator is cooled by a high-efficiency compressor, and the refrigeration cycle is fluoride free.
- Portable design.
- The running indicator is two-color LED lights. When the temperature of the refrigerator does not reach the temperature set point, it lights up green. When the temperature reaches the temperature set point, it lights up orange.
- The battery protector protects the car battery and the refrigerator. When the battery voltage is too low, the power is automatically cut off; when the corresponding voltage is reached, it can be activated, high, medium and low settings. With battery protection function, you can adjust the auto start or shutdown voltage value of the refrigerator by selecting the high/medium/low positions, thus protecting the car battery from being exhausted.
MOBILE CONTROL
You can control the car refrigerator with a smart app via Bluetooth
connection. The app integrates switch control, cooling temperature adjustment,
refrigerator instant temperature display, cooling mode selection control, etc.
System requirements: Hardware: CPU 1GHz; Resolution 1280×720 or 1920×1080;
Memory: 512Mb +
LCD DISPLAY
The LCD screen can display the internal temperature of the refrigerator, fault
number, and function selection.
FAULT NUMBER TABLE
- F1 – The battery voltage is too low.
- F2 – The battery voltage is too high.
- F3 – Fan failure
- F4 – Compressor over temperature protection or compressor start failure
- F5 – Temperature probe failure
NOTE The refrigerator has a temperature memory function, and the working state before power-off is automatically restored after the next power-off, no need to set
BEFORE FIRST USE
- Wipe the inside with a cloth or sponge dampened in a warm water and baking soda solution, 30 ml (2 tbsp) baking soda to 1L (1 quart) of water.
- The exterior should be cleaned with a soft cloth dampened in mild detergent and warm water.
- Wring excess water out of the cloth before cleaning any areas that have the controls or electrical parts.
CONNECT THE REFRIGERATOR
The refrigerator can be connected to a 12/24V DC or a 110V AC power supply.
Insert the cord into the DC socket on the refrigerator and plug the cigarette
lighter plug into the vehicle power supply socket or other 12/24VDC socket. To
use with AC power, use the supplied AC adapter.
USE BATTERY PROTECTOR (ABS)
When your vehicle battery voltage drops to the set value, the refrigerator
will automatically tum off to protect the battery from over-discharge. Once
the battery charge reaches the restart voltage, the refrigerator will start
immediately.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
- Place the refrigerator in a well ventilated area away from heat or direct sunlight.
- Only open the refrigerator door for very brief periods. Minimize the number of openings, to keep as much cold air inside as possible.
- If a frost and/or ice layer builds up inside the refrigerator, defrost the unit as soon as practical.
- Hot food should be allowed to cool down before being placed in the refrigerator.
- Set the appropriate temperature to avoid unnecessary low temperature settings.
NOTE
When the battery protector is closed, the battery should be fully charged to
avoid repeated restarts of the refrigerator. When the HI position is set, the
battery cut-off voltage and the restart voltage are higher than the NED and LO
files.
NOTE
Battery voltage is too low! When the battery voltage is too low, the battery
protector plays a protective role, the refrigerator power indicator light
flashes orange, and the display shows no display. Please charge the battery at
this time.
SPECIFIC PARAMETERS
If the refrigerator uses the car to start the power supply, it is recommended to select the HI position to ensure that the car battery voltage is at a high state. If using extra battery power, select the LO file. When using an adapter to connect to AC power, set the battery protector to the LO position.
