Warning: To reduce the risk of injury, user must read instructions manual carefully. ⚠️

This product is subject to European Directive 2012/19/EC. The symbol of a wheelie bin crossed through [Recycling symbol] indicates that the product requires separate refuse collection in the European Union. Products marked with this symbol must not be discarded with normal domestic waste but taken to a collection point for recycling electrical and electronic devices.

Attentions: Before using the refrigerator, please read this manual carefully and keep it properly.

1. Before use, clean the inside and outside with a damp cloth.
2. Do not fill the refrigerator with corrosive liquids or pour liquids directly into it.
3. When the refrigerator is not used for a long time, disconnect the power supply and keep it dry.
4. Regularly clean the inner chamber to prevent odor and bacteria and ensure food safety.
5. Shut down the refrigerator and battery before pulling by the trolley (if equipped with a battery).

Connect the Power Supply

1. Find the DC power cord in the kit. Connect the DC plug to the power outlet of the car refrigerator.
2. Place the refrigerator securely in the car (e.g., back-up seat).
3. Lay out power cords neatly within the car's interior space. Insert the cigarette lighter plug (one side of the power cord) into the car's cigarette lighter hole.

The refrigerator can be connected to more than one energy source. It can connect directly to a DC 12V/24V power supply. For an AC 100-240V power supply, an AC adapter should be used.

Car Refrigerator Operation

Component Diagram

The main components are:

• Door Latch: Secures the lid.
• Sealing Strip: Ensures an airtight seal.
• Right Compartment: One of the internal cooling sections.
• Control Panel: Interface for settings and display.
• Recessed Handle: For carrying the unit.
• Machine Compartment: Houses the compressor and cooling system.
• Charging Port: Connection point for the power cord.
• Left Compartment: The other internal cooling section.
• Storage Basket (optional): Internal basket for organization.

Reverse Door Opening Direction

The door opening direction can be changed:

• Door Disassembly: Open the door to a 90° angle, then take off the door from one side, and then from the other side.
• Door Installation: Reverse the door opening direction, align the door shaft with the hole on one side and insert it, then fix the door on the other side to complete the installation.

Function and Operation

Note: The right compartment is located on the side with the compressor.

• Power Supply: Connect to DC 12V/24V or AC 100-240V power using the dedicated adapter.
• Display Screen Initialization: Upon connecting power, the unit will emit a long beep, and the display will turn on for 2 seconds before entering normal operating mode.
• Power ON/OFF: Press the [Power symbol] button to switch the unit ON or OFF.
• Temperature Setting (NLD series): While running, press the [+] or [-] buttons; the screen will flash. Press [+] or [-] again to adjust the freezer compartment temperature. When the screen stops flashing, the displayed temperature is the current temperature. It may take time to reach the set temperature. Note: Only the freezer compartment temperature is adjustable; the fridge compartment temperature changes accordingly and remains above 0°C/32°F.

Temperature Reference (Based on 25°C/77°F ambient temperature):

• Temperature Setting (NLS series): While running, long press the [+] and [gear icon] buttons simultaneously for three seconds to switch the left compartment ON/OFF. Long press the [-] and [gear icon] buttons simultaneously for three seconds to switch the right compartment ON/OFF. Both compartments cannot be switched OFF simultaneously. When both compartments are running, press [+] or [-] to enter the left compartment temperature setting. Press [+] to increase temperature, [-] to decrease, and [gear icon] to switch between left/right compartments. Settings are saved after 3 seconds of inactivity. The displayed temperature is the current compartment temperature; it will take time to reach the set temperature. Temperature setting range: -20°C to 20°C (-4°F to 68°F).
• Cooling Mode: While running, press the [gear icon] to switch between MAX (fast cooling mode) and Eco (energy saving mode). (*Factory setting is MAX.)
• Battery Protection Mode: While running, long press the [gear icon] for 3 seconds until the left screen flashes, then press [gear icon] again to switch between High (H), Medium (M), and Low (L). (*Factory setting is Medium.)

Voltage Reference:

*The voltage is a theoretical value; there may be deviations in different vehicles.

Due to varying output voltages between vehicles, set to H when connected to car power, and M or L when connected to a portable battery or other back-up battery.

• Temperature Unit Setting: Switch OFF the fridge, long press the [gear icon] for three seconds until E1 displays. Press the [gear icon] again to switch to E5. Under E5 mode, press [+] or [-] to select Celsius or Fahrenheit.
• Reset: Switch OFF the fridge, long press the [gear icon] for three seconds until E1 displays. Under E1 mode, long press [+] and [-] simultaneously for three seconds to reset it.

Packing List

Use Suggestions

1. If equipped with a backup battery, you can maintain any temperature you set under any circumstances without worries.
2. When placing ice cream, please adjust the temperature to the lowest setting; it must be powered on for a long time.
3. Prevent health problems of drinking bottled water caused by high temperatures by using the refrigerator.
4. Frozen food, rare seafood, and vehicle-mounted refrigerators help keep fresh food cold during journeys.
5. Healthcare products, insulin, and imported drugs require refrigeration; the precise temperature control of onboard refrigerators ensures their safety.
6. Tea leaves are kept fresh in the car refrigerator, allowing for fresh tea anytime during self-driving tours.
7. The best storage temperature for red wine is 10°C - 18°C (50 - 64.4°F). The precise temperature control ensures optimal storage.
8. The storage time of high-grade fruit in a car during high summer temperatures is at least 2 hours, shorter if the air conditioner is on. Using a car refrigerator effectively preserves high-grade fruit.
9. High-grade sunglasses' coatings can degrade under high summer temperatures; the car refrigerator is an ideal place to store them.
10. High-grade cosmetics deteriorate quickly in high car temperatures; carrying them in the car refrigerator is a better choice.
