4. Dual-Zone Functionality
The OLIXIS refrigerator features a customizable dual-zone design. The function of each zone can be adjusted by inserting or removing the middle partition.

- With Partition Inserted: The unit operates in dual-zone mode. Typically, the larger left side functions as the freezer, and the smaller right side as the refrigerator. The freezer temperature is adjustable, and the refrigerator temperature will be influenced by the freezer setting.
- Without Partition: The entire unit operates as a single zone, allowing for a uniform temperature throughout. The temperature will follow the set value.
5. Bluetooth App Control
The refrigerator can be controlled remotely via a Bluetooth-enabled smartphone app (e.g., Tuya Smart). Download the app, pair your device with the refrigerator, and follow the in-app instructions to monitor and adjust settings.
6. Battery Protection System
The unit includes a battery protection system to prevent your vehicle's battery from draining. There are typically three levels (Low, Medium, High) that can be set via the control panel or app. When the input voltage drops below the set level, the refrigerator will automatically shut off.
Image: A table detailing the battery protection voltage levels for 12V and 24V systems. It shows the 'turn off' and 'turn on' voltages for Low (L), Medium (M), and High (H) settings.
| Battery Protection | 12 V turn off | 12 V turn on | 24 V turn off | 24 V turn on |
|---|---|---|---|---|
