Before Use

Handling

The refrigerator is equipped with two handles for transport. At least two people are required for carrying. Do not use the lid latch to move the refrigerator.

Ideal Location

To reduce energy consumption and ensure proper operation, place the refrigerator:

• In a clean, dry, and rain-free location.
• With adequate ventilation, allowing at least 50 mm of space on all sides.
• On a stable, level surface with an inclination of less than 30° to avoid triggering the anti-tip protection.
• Away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and flames.
• In areas free from high levels of gas or smoke.
• Avoid placing on carpets, as they can absorb condensation and lead to mold.

Tip: If the anti-tip protection is triggered, return the refrigerator to an upright position. The protection will reset after 1 minute.

Getting Started

Connect Power

From a Wall Outlet

Connect the refrigerator's input port to a wall outlet using the included AC power adapter. Use a dedicated outlet.

From the Connected Battery

The refrigerator can be powered by the EcoFlow GLACIER Plug-in Battery.

Install the Plug-in Battery

Note: Read the battery's user manual carefully before installation.

1. Open the refrigerator's battery compartment cover.
2. Insert the battery with the interface and button facing outwards (button in the top-right corner).
3. The battery is connected successfully when the battery icon appears on the refrigerator's display.

Note: When powered by an external source and a battery is connected, the external source will be used for cooling first, and any surplus will charge the battery.

Remove the Plug-in Battery

1. Open the refrigerator's battery compartment cover.
2. Press the battery removal button.
3. Remove the battery.
4. Close the battery compartment cover.

From Solar Power

With the battery connected, use an EcoFlow Solar to XT60i charging cable to connect a solar panel to the refrigerator's input port.

Note:

• The solar charging cable and solar panel are not included.
• The battery must remain connected when using solar power.
• Ensure the solar panel's output voltage is within 30V to avoid damaging the refrigerator.

From a Cigarette Lighter Socket

Connection

Connect the refrigerator's input port to the vehicle's cigarette lighter socket using the included car charging cable.

Car Battery Protection

The refrigerator features car battery protection to prevent over-discharging. This function has three levels: "Low," "Medium," and "High." The protection is strongest at "High" and consumes more power from the car battery at "Low." The function can be activated/deactivated and adjusted via the EcoFlow app.

Note:

• Car battery protection is set to "Medium" by default.
• It is recommended to set the car battery protection to "Medium" or "High" to prevent ignition failure.

The three levels of protection correspond to different cut-off and operating voltages:

When the refrigerator is not connected to a plug-in battery, it will automatically shut off if the car battery voltage drops below the cut-off voltage. It will resume operation once the voltage returns to the operating level.

When connected to a plug-in battery, the refrigerator will switch to battery power if the car battery voltage drops below the cut-off voltage, preventing automatic shutdown.

Note: If powering the refrigerator from a power station's cigarette lighter port or a solar panel, and the power source is not functioning correctly, disable the car battery protection feature via the EcoFlow app and try again.

Open the Lid

The refrigerator is equipped with two lid latches and allows opening from either side. Press both lid latches simultaneously and lift the lid upwards to remove it.

Note: Ensure the lid is oriented correctly when repositioning it.

Power On/Off

• Power On/Off: Press and hold the power button for approximately 2 seconds.
• Display Off: When the refrigerator is on, short press the power button to turn off the display.
• Display On: Press any button to activate the display when the refrigerator is on.

Note:

• If no battery is connected, the refrigerator will automatically turn on when connected to any power source.
• When a battery is connected, if the refrigerator is connected to a power source and was manually turned off, it will not auto-start. If it was turned off abnormally, it will auto-start.

Set Temperature

Single Zone Setting

Adjust Temperature

After the refrigerator is turned on, the display shows the real-time temperature. Press the adjustment button once to enter temperature settings (temperature digits will flash). Press the adjustment button again to adjust the temperature. Press and hold for rapid adjustment. Settings are applied automatically after 3 seconds of inactivity, or you can press the power button once to confirm immediately.

Tip: The cooling capacity range is from -20°C to 20°C.

Temperature Unit Switch

The refrigerator supports both Celsius and Fahrenheit. To switch, press and hold both adjustment buttons (Up and Down) simultaneously for 2 seconds.

Dual Zone Setting

Note: Only 45L and 55L models support dual-zone settings.

The 45L and 55L models come with a temperature zone divider. When the divider is not installed, the refrigerator operates in single-zone mode. Installing the divider switches it to dual-zone mode.

How to Install

1. Push the separator latch outwards to remove the temperature zone separator from the bottom of the refrigerator lid.
2. Insert the separator along the divider placement ribs and into the cabinet.
3. Once the separator is in place, the refrigerator enters dual-zone mode.

The smaller volume zone will be the left zone, and the larger volume zone closer to the display will be the right zone.

Note: The temperature zone separator can be stored in the bottom of the refrigerator lid when not in use.

After the refrigerator is turned on, the display shows the real-time temperatures of both zones. Press the adjustment button once to enter the temperature setting for the left zone (digits will flash). Press again to adjust. Press and hold for rapid adjustment. Press the settings button once while adjusting to switch between zones.

Note:

• The cooling capacity range is from -20°C to 20°C.
• The temperature difference between the two zones can be up to 22°C.

Temperature Unit Switch

The refrigerator supports both Celsius and Fahrenheit. To switch, press and hold both adjustment buttons (Up and Down) simultaneously for 2 seconds.

Recommended Temperature Settings for Common Foods

Note: Recommended temperatures are for reference only.

Switch Mode

Press the settings button once to change the refrigerator's operating mode. The refrigerator offers two modes:

• Eco Mode: Consumes less power, extending operating time.
• Max Mode: Provides faster and more precise temperature control, with higher energy consumption.

Child Lock

Activate/Deactivate Child Lock: Press and hold the settings button for 2 seconds. When activated, all control panel buttons are disabled to prevent accidental operation.
