Operating the fridge
1. Switch to COLD using the MODE switch (6) (cooling begins and the
green LED illuminates). Switch to HOT mode using the MODE switch
(6) (the warming function begins and the red LED illuminates).
2. When the MODE switch (6) is set to OFF neither function is active (no
LED is illuminated).
3. Set the POWER MODE switch (12) to the MAX setting for full power
usage or MIN setting for economy power usage (This mode is AC
power only.)
Cooling tips
• To achieve the quickest cooling operation, fill the fridge with beverages which have
already been refrigerated. They will then stay cool and become even cooler providing the
fridge remains switched on.
• The temperature at which the fridge operates depends on the surrounding ambient
temperature. Cooling will be more efficient in a colder environment.
Warming tips
• The box is designed and used for the purpose of keeping warm items warm. And not for
warming up items.
• Hot items stays hot for a number of hours after the fridge has been switched off,
providing the door is closed properly.
Care and maintenance
• Ensure you disconnect the plug fully before performing regular maintenance.
• Use a vacuum cleaner or brush to clean the fan monthly.
• Clean the case with a wet cloth and neutral cleanser.
• Ensure the inside is fully dry before storing when not in use.

Please note:
• Cool air from inside the compact fridge draws moisture out of nearby warmer air, which
condenses on the inner surface. Wipe away any moisture build up with a soft cloth and
avoid opening the fridge door regularly to reduce excessive condensation build-up.
• If the mini fridge is powered off after an extended period then condensation may collect
underneath the unit. This is normal, so steps should be taken to protect the surface the
mini fridge is placed on.

room temperature before attempting to switch from
heating to cooling mode, or visa versa.
• Allow at least 10cm distance from the back and
sides of the compact fridge to allow the withdrawn
heat to disperse.
• To achieve the quickest cooling operation, fill the
fridge with beverages which have already been
refrigerated.They will then stay cool and become
even cooler providing the fridge remains switched
