Features:
•Reliable cooling system with Danfoss designed compressor manufactured by SECOP
•Efficient electronic technology, low energy consumption
•Multi-voltage system (DC 12-24 Volt) and (AC 100-120/220-240 Volt)
•Digital Battery Protection - protects your vehicle battery effectively
1. Safety Instructions
•Warning: Do not touch exposed cables.
•Warning: Do not use fridge if you suspect any connections could be wet.
•When using the fridge please ensure the circuit being used is fused.
•Any installation of DC power sources should be handled by a qualified professional.
•Make sure the source voltage is correct. The technical data label shows the voltage data.
•Do not place any electrical devices inside the refrigerator as moisture could harm these
devices.
2. Notes on using the product
Your refrigerator requires good ventilation, especially around the vents of the refrigerator;
allow a gap of at least 200mm around the vents and 100mm around the rest of the unit.
Avoid humidity: humidity inside the appliance can form frost and impair cooling. Do not
allow frost to build up.
Never wash the appliance using a hose or running water and never submerge the unit, as
water will damage the electronics.
Avoid placing your refrigerator near a heat source. A cooler environment helps the refrigerator
to work more efficiently and keep the contents cool.
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.
3. Operation
Power
:
::
:
The refrigerator can be powered by a multi-voltage system utilizing either 12/24
Volts or 240 Volts. The electronic module controls the compressor motor and has the added
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 over 10.4 Volts (12 Volt System) or
23.0 Volts (24V System) to operate. If the voltage drops below this the fridge will stop
operating.

(Evakool recommends you keep the setting on LO)
oLO – 10.4 Volts
oNE – 11.2 Volts
oHI – 12 Volts
USB Charging Port and Thermostat Override Switch
USB Port – This USB port can be used to charge small devices. E.g. mobile phones and remote
controllers. The socket is rated to 500mA / 5 Volts.
Thermostat Override switch – If your digital thermostat fails and you are unable to set the
temperature, turn this switch to Emergency override. This enables the fridge to run until you reach a
service centre to replace the faulty component.
oIf emergency override is enabled the compressor will attempt to run 100% of the time. As this
removed the ability to set the internal temperature and will increase power usage (Total
consumption), it is not recommended for everyday use.
