INPUT POWER REQUIREMENTS
The fridge is designed to operate from a 12V DC or 24V DC supply (e.g. car cigarette lighter style socket, vehicle battery or suitably rated power bank). It may also be powered from mains supply using the included AC Adapter.
Before connecting your fridge to a power source, check:
+ The socket is rated to supply the correct voltage and current required by the fridge and is adequately fused.
+ The socket is clean and dry and will be protected from dirt and water during use.
+ If the socket is newly installed, it is recommended to use a minimum of Ø6mm (AWG11) 4.58mm² Twin Sheath Two Core cable directly connected to the positive and negative battery terminals with 15A in-line fuse protection.
NOTE: It is important that the correct cord size and gauge is used for the installation of the DC supply as over distance the voltage can decrease if the incorrect cord size and gauge cord is being used. We recommend to always consult a qualified automotive electrician.
CONNECTING & OPERATING YOUR FRIDGE FROM A DC SOURCE
+ Plug the supplied 12V/24V DC power cord into the DC power socket (as highlighted over page) on the end of the fridge and then connect to the vehicle cigarette lighter socket or suitable 12V or 24V DC power source.
+ The fridge will automatically turn on, there is no requirement to switch the appliance on.
+ The display will automatically show the current internal cabinet temperature.
+ Use only the DC power cord supplied with the fridge.
+ The fridge is equipped with an electronic control system that will prevent polarity reversal. In the event that the battery connection is reversed the unit will not start or operate. The fridge is fitted with a 15A fuse for protection.
If your fridge is cutting out prematurely, it could be due to:
1. The low voltage protection being set too high on the Battery Protection.
2. DC power cord and/or connections are not suitable to carry the required current. Check the power cord and all connections and adjust the Battery Protection on the control panel.
NOTE: A battery charger may only be connected to the battery when the fridge has been disconnected from the DC power source.
+ Over-voltage may cause damage to the electronics of the fridge.
CONNECTING & OPERATING YOUR FRIDGE FROM AN AC SOURCE
+ Check the adapter and cables for any damage, if any is found do NOT use it and contact Customer Service.
+ Securely insert the AC cable plug into the socket of the AC Adapter.
+ Securely insert the DC plug into the DC Input Socket on the XTM Portable Fridge Freezer.
+ Plug the 3 pin mains plug into a suitable wall outlet - Ensure the wall outlet is switched off before inserting the plug. Route the cables and position the adapter to prevent any damage and allow sufficient clearance to prevent excessive heat build-up during use.
+ Turn on the wall outlet switch. Your XTM Portable Fridge Freezer should power up and operate as normal. It is recommended to set the Battery Protection level on the fridge to Low setting when operating it off this AC Adapter.

+ Repeat for all 4 locations and tighten the straps securely.
+ If you need to remove your fridge from your fridge slide or vehicle, you can loosen the tie-down straps (without fully removing them).
+ Then un-clip the tie-down brackets from the fridge, leaving them with your straps attached to the fridge slide or vehicle tie-down points.
+ To remove the tie-down brackets, place your thumb on the body of the fridge above the bar and using your fingers, rotate the bracket inward and pull the bracket up and out via the slot away from the fridge.
Tie-down straps and lower anchor points/fridge slide need to be sourced separately and sized appropriately from the fridge size and weight
11
USING WITH SOLAR PANELS
+ The power consumption and efficiency of your fridge makes it ideal to be used in conjunction with solar panels to provide recharging of the DC power source. Solar panels will provide charge into the battery during the daylight hours even while the appliance is operating.
+ As the output from solar panels changes depending on the level of sunlight and intensity, your fridge cannot be connected directly to the solar panels. The appliance must be connected to a suitable DC battery and then the solar panels connected to the battery.
+ We recommend the use of the quality portable solar panel kits from 100 to 200 watts for use with your fridge. DO NOT connect the fridge directly to the solar panel as it will not work. Connection must be via the battery.
USING PORTABLE GENERATORS
+ It is important that the your fridge is never connected directly to a generator. This fridge is designed to operate directly from a battery. Using from a generator may result in damage to your fridge which may void your appliance warranty.
+ Most generators are fitted with a DC power output socket - DO NOT connect your fridge directly to the DC power output of the generator as this will result in damage to your fridge and void warranty. Connection must be via the battery.
+ When charging the battery using a digital or inverter type generator, we recommend only using a `smart battery charger' that is fully automatic, spark proof and reverse polarity protected. The battery charger is connected directly to the AC power output of the generator.
Only run this fridge directly from a battery

TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
+ When the appliance is being set at 0° or lower temperatures, do not store glass bottles or liquids such as beer, milk, juices or soft drinks in the unit as these may freeze and shatter.
+ To improve the efficiency of your fridge it is better to have the fridge as full as possible at all times. A full fridge will provide lower power consumption over 24 hours than a half empty one. When the fridge is full there is little air space between the goods so the cold air is trapped, but when there is lots of air the coldness cannot be captured and held. On a trip it is a good idea to replace finished products with bottles of water or similar. This will fill the empty spaces and allow the coldness to remain within the fridge.
+ Frequent fridge opening will allow warm air to enter the fridge. Keep the number of times you open the fridge to a minimum where possible.
+ When located in the rear of a car or trailer, it is recommended that the appliance be kept away from direct sunlight to reduce the risk of increased heat. It should also be provided with suitable ventilation to guarantee efficient power consumption and performance. You must remember that when a vehicle is parked in the sun on a day where the ambient temperature is +30°C, the interior of the vehicle can reach +55°C.
Your fridge will be delivered cleaned from the factory you nevertheless should clean prior to initial use. Take a cloth which has been slightly moistened with lukewarm water. Pay attention that no water drops into the seals and possibly damages the electronics. Dry off the fridge with a cloth after cleaning. Clean your fridge periodically and as soon as it is dirty.
ATTENTION:
+ DO NOT use solvents or agents with sand or acid parts for cleaning your fridge.
+ DO NOT use brushes, graters or hard sharp tools to clean your fridge.
+ Before cleaning, the power cord should be disconnected and the fridge switched OFF.
+ Clean the fridge inside and out with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use some sodium bicarbonate dissolved in lukewarm water.
+ After washing, rinse with clean water and dry carefully.
+ When storing your fridge for a long period of time, DO NOT fully close the fridge. This will prevent mould and odours.
+ For additional queries, service and maintenance please contact our After Sales Support. They will provide you with expert advice on further information you may require.
DISPOSAL
When it comes to the end of its working life, your fridge should be disposed of responsibly to ensure that it does not contaminate the environment. It would be advisable to contact your local council for where to recycle your fridge.
