AC (adapter included)

• Optional removable Lithium battery if there is no connection of DC/ AC power.

• DC/ AC power will run the refrigerator, and charge the optional removable battery

simultaneously.

• Battery Charging: There are three types of charging methods. 12V / 24V DC power,

100-240V AC with adapter, or solar panel (12V-50V).

with AC to DC Adapter

Solar Panel (optional)

Car Cigarette Lighter

with DC Cable

Optional Removable Battery

AC to DC Adapter (included) DC Cable (included)

Only use approved chargers with the fridge battery, incorrect chargers may result in

ﬁre, damage, a shortened battery life. Do not disassemble, impact, squeeze, crush, or

throw or misuse the fridge battery, do not dispose of in ﬁre, any of which may result in

short circuit and ﬁre or explosion. If there is swelling and heating of the fridge battery

do not continue to use, it may result in ﬁre or explosion, do not use the battery if it is

wet or damp.

Battery Operation

Long press on the battery to switch

ON/OFF the battery

Tips to make the battery last longer:

1. Switch to ECO mode by pressing

on the fridge panel;

2. Set the battery protection to “L” mode

(very important setting to make the

battery work longer time)

3. Pre-chill the fridge to your ideal

temperature in advance;

4. Do not open the door frequently;

5. Do not set the temperature too low if not necessary.

WARNING: Do not open or disassemble the battery.

WARNING: Do not charge fridge / freezer with DC 12V and Solar Panel at the same time!

The fridge could be seriously damaged and pose a potential hazard to you.

Solar Panel Charge Connection

Insert the solar charge cable into the

refrigerator’s Solar charge interface

Max Solar input Voltage: 50V

Max Solar input Current: 10A

Checking Charge Status: When the

refrigerator is powered

ON and DC / AC power is connected, the

battery icon on display screen will ﬂash to

show charging. To charge the fridge / freezer battery without running the compressor,

simply connect the adapters without powering “ON” the fridge. To view charging status

please press and hold button for 3 seconds. The fridge’s battery status and voltage

will be displayed. When the voltage reaches 12.6V and the battery icon stops ﬂashing,

the unit has been fully charged and wiring should be disconnected to prevent internal

component from damage.

AC Charging Management

If the fridge has not been used for a long time, the battery may be discharged, and the

fridge will not power on. Please use the AC adapter to charge the fridge battery and

run the fridge. After the fridge battery has charged up to 30%, you can switch to other

methods for charging.

Car Cigarette Lighter Charging Management

The product has a three-level battery protection function, which not only guarantees

the normal operation of the product, but also protect the battery of the vehicle. When

in the power-on state, long press SET button for 3 seconds and the display screen

ﬂashes H, select low voltage production L(ow), M(edium), and High) by clicking button

. The factory default is set to L(ow) protection.

H should be set when the product is connected to car power, and M or L should be

set when it is connected to a portable battery or other back-up battery. The battery

protection level should be set to H if the product will keep working after turning o the

car engine, or the product may drain the battery.

Solar Charging Management

To make sure your fridge is being charged by a solar panel, please turn the fridge on

ﬁrst. The battery icon will ﬂash on the display screen to show the charging status.

The fridge can be turned o while it is being charged. Press and hold button for

over 3 seconds to check the battery status and volatage. An extension cable may be

required to keep the fridge in a cool place (to avoid overheating) while the solar panel

is in the sun. Input power for charging should be higher than the refrigerator power

draw (about 40-45w), otherwise the optional battery will not charge at the same time.

To ensure that solar charging power is higher than refrigerator working power, a 100-

Watt solar panel is advised.

NOTE: Because of the dierent output voltages between vehicles, the battery protection

level can be set from H to M or from M to L if there is a voltage protection code F1 shown

on the panel.

BATTERY USAGE

FOOD STORAGE

Optional Removable Battery: The lithium battery is back up power to keep the

refrigerator working for short periods while o grid.

Notice: When not using the battery power or fridge for a long time, please turn o the

battery output. (Hold setting button for 3 Sec).

Maintain Battery Charge:

1. Home / Hotel: Use AC adapter to charge unit from AC outlet.

2. Car / Boat: Use DC port to power the fridge and charge the battery.

3. O Grid: Put the optional battery inside the battery compartment of the fridge, and

connect the optional solar panel to the fridge. Or use portable 12V power system /

solar system. Do NOT connect the solar panel directly to the battery.

Extended battery usage:

1. Cool down the fridge before your journey: It is always suggested to charge fridge

battery and cool the fridge down in advance with the mains to DC adapter from the

wall outlet the day before the trip. To prepare for o-grid fridge usage, place food

and beverages inside fridge for cooling the day before. This will not only keep the

optional battery more durable, but also save energy for outdoor activities once on

battery mode.

2. Disconnecting the Battery: The battery can be removed or disconnected with the

side button. This prevents the battery from discharging. The product will work from

the AC adapter or car outlet without the optional battery installed. Note: Please

charge fully the optional battery before it is put into storage 1 month or more.

Freezer (-4° F~32° F)(-20°C~0°C):

Meat should be cut and packed properly when placed in the fridge.

Do not put the fresh food and frozen food together.

Do not store glass containers or other containers which seal in liquid in the freezer, to

avoid explosion.

Refrigerator (32° F~50° F)(0°C~10°C):

Egg, butter, milk and bottle drinks can be stored.

All food should be packed appropriately before being stored in the fridge.

Place food in refrigerator after it gets cool in order to save energy.

TROUBLESHOOTING

ISSUE SUGGESTED REMEDY

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 is malfunctioned.

• Switch on/o the fridge frequently may cause start delay of

the compressor

Refrigerator compartments

are too warm

• The lid 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 “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 or door gap

It’s 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 F1 displayed Possible cause: low voltage to fridge.

Adjust the battery protection from High to Medium or from

Medium to Low.

Code F2 displayed Possible cause: condenser fan is overloaded.
