1 Safety Instructions
• Warning: Do not use your unit if any cabling is damaged, frayed or exposed.
• Warning: Do not attempt or continue to operate your unit if it is wet.
• When using the unit ensure the circuit being used has a fuse or circuit breaker,
recommended size for DC 12 Volt is 15 Amp, DC 24 Volt is 7.5 Amp.
• 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.
2. Notes On Using The Product
• Your unit requires good ventilation, especially around the vents of the refrigerator; allow
a gap of at least 100mm 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 o, allowing the frost to melt and wiping out the
water.
• The lower the ambient temperature, the lower the power usage. In order to maximise
eiciency keep the unit in a cool location out of direct sunlight.
• It is recommended to operate the unit on a flat surface, but it will operate at angles up to
30°.
3. Operation
• Power: DC (12 and 24 Volt)
• Cable Length Specification
The DC cables must have a suitable cross-section for their length (measured from the
battery to the unit), according to this table:

• Never clean the unit under running water or in dish water. Do not use abrasive cleaning
agents or hard objects during cleaning as these can damage the unit.
5. Troubleshooting
The Unit is Not Turning On
• Check whether the unit has been turned on.
• Check the power supply (try a dierent 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 been placed inside the unit.
• There is too much warm product inside the unit .
• The lid is unlatched / or open.
• The lid seal is broken.
• Problems arising from poor ventilation (allow 100mm of space around all vents).
• The ambient temperature is too high.
• The temperature setting is too high.
Yellow Fault Light Flashing
1 Flash every 4 seconds: Low Voltage
• Try on dierent power source (vehicle or 240V AC power). If changing power source fixed
issue, then possible issue with original power source.
• Ensure cabling between fridge and battery is at least 4mm, if the distance is more than 2
metres then use at least 6mm cable.

2 Flashes every 4 seconds: Fan Issue
• Fan is drawing too many amps (over 0.5 amps), replace fan.
3 Flash every 4 seconds: Compressor Start Issue
• Unplug cable and allow unit to rest for 10 minutes.
• Try on dierent power source (vehicle or 240V AC power).
• Electronic box fault.
• Compressor fault.
4 Flash every 4 seconds: Low Motor Speed
• Reduce products / items inside unit.
• Move so unit is in a lower ambient temperature clean vents / ensure clear air flow over
compressor.
• Fan fault.
5 Flash every 4 seconds: Over Temperature
• Ambient temperature too high.
• Clean vents / ensure clear air flow over compressor.
• Fan fault.
Can hear the sound of running water 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.
