• If your appliance is plugged in to a DC vehicle socket ­- ensure that you disconnect from power when you stop. Or use the battery protection (page 5). Don’t come back to a flat battery!
• DO NOT fill appliance with ICE, WATER or other liquid.
• DO NOT attempt to remove frost with scraper or knife. Serious damage to cooling system could occur.
• Buildup of heat in a vehicle can be extreme, shutdown will occur if cooling is not possible.

Important Product Information

• Best performance is achieved in ambient temperatures between +10 °C and + 43 °C.
• Temperatures above +32 °C may see a slight performance drop, and power consumption increase.
• The lower the ambient temperature, the lower the power usage. In order to maximize efficiency, keep the unit in a cool location out of direct sunlight.
• When using the unit ensure the circuit being used has a fuse or circuit breaker, recommended size for DC 12 Volt is 10 Amp, DC 24 Volt is 5 Amp.

Damage may occur if the DC cable supply is undersized. This will cause low voltage. As a guide, from the battery to the appliance follow this guide.

Cable cross section| 12v maximum cable length| 24v maximum cable length
---|---|---
mm²| Metre| Metre
2.5| 2.5| 5
4| 4| 8
6| 6| 12
10| 10| 20

• Make sure the voltage is within the correct range for socket and cable being used.
• Do not place any electrical devices inside the refrigerator as they may be damaged.
• Your unit requires good ventilation, especially around the vents of the refrigerator; allow a gap of at least 100 mm around all vents.
• Do not allow a large amount of frost to build up on the inside walls as this may impair cooling.
• Defrost by turning the unit off. Once frost has melted, remove the bung plug to drain any excess water and wipe out any remaining moisture with a clean cloth.
• It is recommended to operate the unit on a flat surface, but it will operate at angles up to 30 º.

Emergency Override

The Emergency Override Switch is located just below the main control panel next to the power inlets

For normal operation the switch is in the “NORMAL USE” position. If the electronics in the display board fail or controls become non-functional, slide the switch to EMERGENCY OVERRIDE position.

NOTE:

• In EMERGENCY OVERRIDE, the cooler runs with full cooling capacity (i.e. will chill as heavily as possible with no regard to the set temperature) and may freeze.
• The compressor will run continuously for 8 hours before going into a hibernation mode.

Cleaning & Maintenance

How to clean your unit:

• Clean the appliance inside and outside with a clean damp cloth every week. If it is dirty, use sodium bicarbonate dissolved in lukewarm water to clean the unit.
• Please don’t use abrasive products, detergents, soap or hard objects to clean as these can damage your refrigerator.
• After cleaning, wipe out with a clean damp cloth and dry carefully.
• Never clean the unit under running water or in dish water.
• Do not store products inside unit if the unit is off.
• Do not store the unit if it is wet inside or without leaving the lid open.

Troubleshooting

How to get the most out of your unit:

• Best performance is achieved at ambient temperatures between +10 °C and +32 °C.
• Product is rated as a ‘T Climate’ class (Tropical), which means that the units meet the requirements of ISO-15502 at 43 °C.
• Higher ambient temperatures mean that the compressor will run faster and longer.
• If the unit is in direct sun, this also increases the ambient temperature and may result in the compressor running faster and longer.
• In extraordinary high temperatures the compressor will purposely slow to 1080 RPM for safety.
• Never stack meat, fish or any other solid water-based food directly against each other without air gaps. If the cool air cannot circulate and surround the individual contents, it will take much longer to freeze and may even result in partial freezing.

The unit is not turning on

• Check whether the unit has been turned on.
• Check the power supply (try a different power source/vehicle/socket).
• Check whether the plug and the socket have a good connection.
• Check whether the fuse has been burned out or blown.

Low refrigeration performance

• Too much product has been placed inside the unit.
• There is no room for air to circulate between the items in the fridge/freezer.
• There is too much warm product inside the unit.
• The lid is unlatched or open.
• The lid seal is broken.
• Poor ventilation (allow 100 mm of space around all vents).
• The ambient temperature is too high.
• The temperature setting is too high.

Can hear the sound of liquid flowing or gurgling from inside the unit

• This is normal, due to the flow of refrigerant in the unit.

Unusual noise when refrigerator is working

• The refrigerator is not placed on a level surface. If none of the above solves your issue, see page 3 or contact Milenco Ltd on the hotline for your location.
  UK: 01908 220102 or US: 574-208-9812

NOTE:
At inclinations of more than 15 ° the compressor noise level may increase (without any effect on the cooling performance).
