BODEGA CF15 Car Refrigerator - Fig6

Note: It is suggested to switch off the refrigerator when charging the battery (the power supply may mainly power the compressor when the refrigerator is running). When connect to a solar panel, please place the refrigerator in a cool place to dissipate heat. The charging input power should be higher than the working power of the refrigerator(about 40-45W), or switch off the refrigerator, otherwise the battery will run out.
It is suggested to use 100W solar panel. MAX Solar Input Voltage: 50V; MAX Solar Input Current:10A. Note: the output of the solar panel is unstable, so it cannot power the refrigerator directly. When using a solar panel, the battery should be put into the refrigerator.

Cleaning and Storage

■Cleaning:

  • Unplug the device first to avoid electric shock.
  • Use wet cloth to clean the device and dry it.
  • Do not soak the device in water and do not wash it directly.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaning agents as these can damage the device.

■Storage:

Humidity can form frost in the interior of the cooling device or on the evaporator. This reduces the cooling capacity. Defrost the device in good time to avoid this.

  • Switch off the device.
  • Take out the contents of the device.
  • Keep the lid open.
  • Wipe off the defrosted water.

**** Never use hard or sharp tools to remove ice or to loosen objects which have frozen in place.

Troubleshooting

Issues Cause/Suggestions
The refrigerator does not work •Check if the switch is on.

•Check if the plug and socket are connected well.
•Check if the fuse has been burnt.
•Check if the power supply malfunctions.
•Switch on/off the fridge frequently may cause a start delay of the compressor
Refrigerator compartments are too warm| •The door is opened frequently.
•A large amount of warm or hot food was stored recently.
•The refrigerator has been disconnected for a long time.
Food is frozen| •The temperature was set too low.
There is a “water flow” noise from inside the refrigerator| •It’s a normal phenomenon, caused by the flow of refrigerant.
There are waterdrops around the refrigerator casing ordoorgap| •Its a normal phenomenon, the moisture will condense to
water when it touches a cold surface of the refrigerator.
The compressor is slightly noisy when starting| •It’s a normal phenomenon, the noise will be reduced after the compressor works stably.
Code Fl displayed| •Possible cause: low voltage to the fridge. Adjust the battery protection from High to Medium or from Medium to Low.
Code F2 displayed| •Possible cause: condenser fan is overloaded.
Disconnect power to fridge for 5 minutes & re-start.
If the code shows again, contact the manufacturer for service.
Code F3 displayed| •Possible cause: the compressor starts too frequently. Disconnect power to fridge for 5 minutes & re-start. If the code shows again, contact the manufacturer for service.
Code F4 displayed| •Possible cause: compressor not kicking in.
Disconnect power to fridge for 5 minutes & re-start.
If the code shows again, contact the manufacturer for service.
Code F5 displayed| •Possible cause: overheating of the compressor & electronics. Disconnect power to fridge for 5 minutes & re-start. If the code shows again, contact the manufacturer for service.
Code F6 displayed| •Possible cause: no parameter can be detected by the controller. Disconnect power to fridge for 5 minutes & re-start.
If the code shows again, contact the manufacturer for service.
Code FT or FS displayed| •Possible cause: the temperature sensor is faulty. Contact manufacturer for service.

For models with FSAK-002 detachable battery, if code Fl is displayed, unplug or turn off the battery, or connect to DC12/24V/AC100-240V(using the adapter) power supply to power the compressor and battery in time to avoid long-term micro-current draining the battery.
Due to product improvement, the technical information might be different from the actual information, please refer to the rating label on the product.
