Thank you for purchasing the 10.5 Liter Personal Fridge/Warmer™ by Wagan
Tech®. With normal care and proper treatment it will provide years of reliable
use. Please read all operating instructions carefully before use.
INTRODUCTION
The 10.5 Liter Personal Fridge/Warmer™ is the next step in temperature control.
Already enjoying widespread use in Europe and Asia, the Personal Fridge/
Warmer utilizes a simple, yet highly effective thermal plate technology to
transfer heat to and away from the unit. The end result is that drinks are kept
refreshingly cool in the hot summer, while hot foods are kept warm even in the
cold winter. Such technology allows the unit to operate without the harmful
CFC’s that are often used in other refrigerants, and which can damage the
ozone. As a result, the Personal Fridge/Warmer is an ecologically friendly
solution that does not use harmful refrigerant and poses no risk of toxic leaks
or spills.
FEATURES
• No more needless ice purchases.
• Cooling power equivalent to 10 pound block of ice.
• Superior foam insulation.
• Energy efficient.
• Excellent performance at a high ambient temperature.
• Low maintenance.
• Environmentally safe: No CFC’s (Chloro-Fluoro Carbons). No dangerous
gases.
• Easy to read green and red lights to tell whether the unit is in “cooling”
or “heating” mode.
PRODUCT DIAGRAM
HOW THIS UNIT WORKS
The Personal Fridge/Warmer uses a 12 Volt Direct Current power source. This
system allows for easy power access from almost any automotive or marine
vehicle. The Personal Fridge/Warmer comes equipped with an adapter that
operates via the vehicle’s cigarette lighter. Simply plug the male adapter into
the 12 Volt socket and the female end of the cord into the two-prong socket on
the Fridge/Warmer.

OPERATION
1. Check to make sure the cooler/warmer selector switch is in the OFF
position.
2. Plug the cigarette lighter plug into the cigarette lighter socket in your
vehicle or other 12 volt DC power supply (minimum 5 Amps).
3. Move the switch into the position of the desired function: "COOLER" or
"WARMER".
4. The LED indicator light will illuminate to show the unit is working: green
for cooler, red for warmer.
5. Place items inside the storage compartment and close the lid.
6. You should allow 15 minutes for the unit to return to ambient temperature
when switching between heating mode to cooling mode, or vice versa.
7. The Personal Fridge/Warmer uses low battery power and can operate
up to three hours with vehicle in accessory mode. For any extended time
beyond that, the unit should be operated on a running engine to avoid
draining your vehicle battery.

SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE
• To maintain optimum working efficiency, periodically clean the unit with
a damp cotton cloth. Avoid harsh cleaning agents as they can damage
the unit’s electrical wiring.
• Please keep the unit out of temperature extremes. Excessive heat or cold
can cause the exterior shell to become hard and brittle and will increase
the likelihood of fractures.
• Due to the electrical nature of the unit, please be careful while handling
liquids around the exterior of the unit.
• Do not operate the unit for extended periods of time to avoid draining
the battery source.
• Do not use ice in your Personal Fridge/Warmer. Never fill your unit with
liquid without using containers. Liquid can corrode the fan and motor
parts, impairing performance.
• Air intake and fan areas should never be blocked. Never operate your
unit in a car trunk or enclosed area.
• Always unplug your unit before cleaning.
• Avoid all contact with enclosed or metal parts while your unit is in use.
Electrical shock or burns may result.
• Keep your Personal Fridge/Warmer in a clean environment with good
airflow. Pet hair, dust, and dirt may impair your unit’s operation and void
its warranty.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Some parts of the 12 Volt adaptor may come loose after prolonged use. If this
is the case, simply retighten the screw on the adapter top.
If the unit does not seem to be working properly:
1. Check to see if the adapter is firmly secured within the lighter socket
before proceeding. Also see if the two-prong socket is firmly attached to
the cooling unit.
2. If both adapters are securely plugged in, make sure the battery source
has enough power to charge the unit.
3. When the unit still fails to operate, plug the unit into another power
source and check to see if the unit can work with this new source.
