SAFETY INFORMATION
• Do not touch any exposed cables or wires.
• Do not operate the fridge in wet or damp environments.
• Do not submerge the fridge in water.
• When using the fridge in the vehicle or boat, make sure that the
circuit being used is fused.
• Any installation of DC power systems should be handled by a
qualified professional.
• Make sure the source voltage is correct. The technical data label
has the voltage data for the fridge.
• Ensure that the fridge is kept steady and secure as it can become
heavy when filled.
• A filled fridge may be heavy so be cautious when attempting to lift it.
NOTES ON USING THE PRODUCT
• Good ventilation is necessary for the fridge. Allow a gap of at least
20cm around the vents to allow for airflow.
• If its power supply is cut off, the fridge will switch off automatically
and turn back on when it starts to receive power.
• Do not place any electrical devices inside the refrigerator as
moisture could harm them.
• Frost build-up can affect the cooling ability of the fridge. Humidity in
the unit can cause this frost.
• Placing your refrigerator near a heat source can reduce its efficiency
and heat up its contents. Make sure that you keep the fridge several
metres away from heat sources.
• Place the refrigerator on a flat surface and away from any edges.
When using the fridge in a vehicle, please use a fastening device to
secure it.

NOTES ON OPERATION
• Power: The electronic control module controls the compressor
motor and has the function of a three-stage battery protection.
When the input voltage drops below the minimum, the compressor
will cut out; when the voltage comes back up to the cut-in value, the
compressor will restart automatically.
• Battery Protection: The Danfoss compressor requires
approximately 11 volts (for a 12V system) or 23.0 volts
(for a 24V system) to operate. If the voltage drops below this,
the fridge will stop running.
