Safety Information
- Please connect the unit to a 110V power supply. (Different countries have different voltages. Please select the product that matches your actual situation when purchasing.)
- When using 12V vehicle power, do not connect the refrigerator for a long time if the engine is not running.
- Do not connect directly to the 24V cigarette lighter socket of heavy vehicles.
- During a thunderstorm or when the unit will not be used for extended periods, unplug the unit from the power supply to prevent damage to the unit.
- Do not open or remove the cover, as you may be exposed to dangerous voltage or other hazards.
- To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, avoid overloading wall outlets, extension cords, or other appliances that carry electrical loads.
- Use a suitable power source. Plug the product into a suitable power source according to the instructions in the manual or the marking on the product.
- The supply voltage should match the voltage indicated in the manual and on the unit's nameplate.
- To completely disconnect the unit from the power supply, turn off the power and completely remove the power plug from the outlet.
- Do not bend, stretch, or pull the power cord to avoid electric shock.
- The power outlet must be easily accessible when installing the unit.
- Do not use in areas where dust or other air pollutants can be sucked into the fan.
- Leave a gap of at least 5 cm (approx. 2 inches) from the back and sides of the unit to allow for air circulation and heat dissipation.
- Do not place the refrigerator in poorly ventilated areas, such as the trunk of a car.
- Handle with care, do not squeeze.
- Do not sit on the refrigerator.
- Turn off the refrigerator for 30 minutes before switching from heating mode to cooling mode to allow it to return to room temperature, and vice versa.
- Do not expose the product to rain and keep it away from corrosive gases and liquids.
- If it will not be used for a long time, please disconnect the power supply and store it in a dry and ventilated environment. Avoid direct sunlight.
- Strictly for use by children alone; children should be supervised by adults.

Instructions
Auto Operation Steps
- Plug the DC power cable into the DC power socket on the back of the refrigerator.
- Secure the refrigerator and plug the power cable into the car's power outlet.
- Connect the power supply and start the refrigerator. The default temperature is 0°C (32°F).
- Tap the UP button with your finger to increase the preset temperature. Tip: Pressing and holding the button allows the number to change rapidly.
- To decrease the set temperature, tap the DOWN button with your finger.
- Increase the temperature to 20°C (68°F) to switch to heating mode.
WARNING: Operating the portable refrigerator with the vehicle turned off may drain the vehicle's battery.
Home Operation Steps
- Plug the AC power cable into the AC power socket on the back of the refrigerator.
- Secure the refrigerator and plug the power cable into a standard wall outlet.
- Connect the power supply and start the refrigerator. The default temperature is 0°C (32°F).
- Tap the UP button with your finger to increase the preset temperature. Tip: Pressing and holding the button allows the number to change rapidly.
- To decrease the set temperature, tap the DOWN button with your finger.
- Increase the temperature to 20°C (68°F) to switch to heating mode.
Mode Tips
Sleep Mode
- A low-noise, energy-saving mode. The minimum cooling temperature in this mode is higher than the minimum cooling temperature in normal mode, the cooling rate is slower, and the noise is lower.
- Long press the Set button to switch to sleep mode.
Thermal Mode
- The refrigerator is designed to maintain the temperature of items. It is not intended for heating items.
- As long as the door is properly closed, hot items will remain warm for a few hours after the refrigerator is closed.
Temperature Switch
- Simultaneously pressing and holding the UP and DOWN buttons allows switching the temperature display unit between Fahrenheit and Celsius.
- For the fastest cooling rate, please fill the refrigerator with chilled beverages.
- The cooling effect is affected by the ambient temperature. An excessively high ambient temperature may cause the minimum temperature the refrigerator can reach to rise. Note: Ambient temperature refers to the temperature of the surrounding air. For example, if the unit is used for cooling and the ambient temperature around you is 24°C (75°F), the unit will maintain the temperature within your set error of approximately 1.7 to 4.4°C (35 to 40°F).
Care and Maintenance
- Unplug the unit completely before routine maintenance.
- Use a damp cloth and a neutral detergent to clean the housing.
- When not in use, ensure the interior is completely dry before storing.

Troubleshooting
Unit Not Working
- Check the indicator light (Cold/Heat indicator). If the indicator light is not on or is sometimes on, please check the status of the power connection.
- Check the plug for good contact. Remove dirt from the plug if necessary.
- Ensure the car is turned on (for cars).
- Ensure the working voltage matches the local voltage (for home use) and is only suitable for 12V cigarette lighters (for automobiles).
No Cooling
- Ensure the switch is set to cooling mode.
- Check if the fan is working properly (if not, contact AstroAI for assistance).
- The lowest possible temperature depends on the environment, but should not be below 0°C (32°F). The lower the ambient temperature, the better the cooling effect of the refrigerator.
Condensation
- Do not open the door frequently or open/close it often.
- Do not directly cool high-temperature items.
Poor Heat Dissipation
- Ensure at least 5 cm (approx. 2 inches) clearance from the wall for good heat dissipation.
- Avoid use in high-temperature environments.
- Avoid directly cooling high-temperature items.
- The fan speed in ECO mode is lower. If heat dissipation is poor, please disable ECO mode.
