Reliable cooling system with Danfoss designed compressor manufactured by SECOP
Ÿ
Efficient electronic technology, low energy consumption
Ÿ
Multi-voltage system (DC 12-24 Volt) and (AC 100-120/220-240 Volt)
Ÿ
Digital Battery Protection - protects your vehicle battery effectively
Safety Instructions
Ÿ
Warning: Do not touch exposed cables.
Ÿ
Warning: Do not use fridge if you suspect any connections could be wet.
Ÿ
When using the fridge please ensure the circuit being used is fused.
Ÿ
Any installation of DC power sources should be handled by a qualified professional.
Ÿ
Make sure the source voltage is correct. Please refer to the technical data label for the
voltage data.
Ÿ
Do not place any electrical devices inside the refrigerator as moisture could harm these
devices.
Notes On Using The Product
Ÿ
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.
Ÿ
Avoid humidity: humidity inside the appliance can form frost and impair cooling. Do
not allow frost to build up.
Ÿ
Do not wash the appliance using a hose or running water and do not submerge the
unit, as water will damage the electronics.
Ÿ
Avoid placing your refrigerator near a heat source. A cooler environment helps the
refrigerator work more efficiently and keep the contents cool.
Ÿ
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.

The Danfoss compressor requires approximately 11.0 Volts (12 Volt System) or 23.0 Volts
(24V System) to operate. If the voltage drops below this, the fridge will stop running.
Cable Specification
The DC cables must have a suitable cross-section for their length, according to this table:
*Note: The length is from the battery to the refrigerator.

Operation
Power
The electronic control module powers the compressor motor and has the 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.

USB Charging Port and Thermostat Override Switch
Thermostat Override Switch
USB Charging Outlet
Ÿ
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.
Ÿ
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.
Please Note: If emergency override is enabled the compressor will attempt to run 100% of the time.
This removes the ability to set the internal temperature and will increase power usage (Total
consumption) and is not recommended for everyday use.
