1. How easy is my Fridge Freezer to use?
Very easy! Simply connect the fridge to the power source using the plug connection into the accessory socket of your vehicle, or plug into the socket of your 240 volt adaptor (sold separately) and turn the dial to the desired setting. Check with your service manual for the correct setting. 2. How long will the fridge run in the vehicle with the engine running?
Indefinitely, as the battery charging system in the vehicle will generate a lot more power than the fridge can consume. 3. How long does the fridge take to cool food and drink?
As soon as the Fridge is turned on the temperature at the evaporator plate will drop within half and hour. It will take time for heat to be removed from the contents. You would have to allow at least 6 hours for each 2kg of food. Always try to load the fridge with pre - cooled food from your home refrigerator where ever possible. By doing this, the fridge will not have to work as hard or as long to reach the desired temperature. This cold food and drink will stay cold and will help to cool any food or drink later. Try to leave spaces between products to allow circulation of cool air. 4. Can I switch the fridge off when not in use?
Yes. However, continuous usage is beneficial to the unit. If you can’t leave the frid ge on all the time (for instance at home), ensure that the unit is started up periodically, recommended at least 24 hours every month. We suggest: a) Use the fridge on a regular basis on the lowest setting b) Pre-cool or freeze items c) Pre-cool fridge before putting items in d) Leave room for circulation e) Do not store hot or warm items in the fridge f) Store the frodge in cool, dry and shaded places. If not used for a longer period, leave the lid slightly open to help ventilation. 5. Will my fridge still work when I switch my vehicle engine off?
Generally, no. In most vehicles when you switch your engine off using the key (and the radio stops working!), your fridge will stop working. This is because you are effectively closing the power circuit by turning the key to the off position in the ignition. Hard wiring direct link is a common 4wd/off - road option that can be explored with your local auto electrician. 6. Can the fridge run on normal 240 - volt household electricity?
Yes. If you use an optional AC adaptor, which converts 240 volts AC to 12/24 volts DC We recommend the AC adaptor have a minimum of 10 AMP output. 7. How long will the fridge keep food cool when it is not running? It depends on the following aspects: a) Outside (ambient) temperature b) Shade, sun and wind c) Starting temperature of the contents d) Size of the fridge e) Quantity of contents As a rough estimate, an EvaKool Icebox can keep contents cool up to 5-10 days depending on certain conditions. 8. What is the battery draw of the fridge? See specification in product listing. 9. Is there any way to automatically switch the fridge off before the battery becomes dangerously low? Yes. The fridge requires either 12 or 24V to operate and incorporates a computer operated automatic cut off system. This feature cuts out the fridge if the power source goes below 10.4V. Although this is a great safety utility Evakool advises you to use your own good judgment before leaving your fridge unattended. 10. What do I do, if, in the unlikely event that my fridge stops? Call EvaKool service support for warranty assistance on 07 54927777. 11. Why is a fridge a good alternative to an EvaKool icebox? The fridge has the same insulation as an Evakool icebox. It cools the air space inside the icebox on a continuous basis via the evaporator plate. By using the fridge, your food is kept dry because there is no necessity to use ice, which will eventually melt. Additionally, more room is made available by not having ice taking up valuable space. 12. Can the fridge be carried in car trunk/boot? Yes. For a limited time as proper circulation of air is required as heat energy is absorbed and pumped out of the unit. In a confined space, such as in a car boot, this dissipated heat may reduce the effectiveness of the fridge. Bear in mind that the temperature in the trunk of a car can reach over 60C or more, in these circumstances the fridge will not work effectively. 13. Can I connect my fridge to a solar panel? Yes. In fact any regulated external power source such as a solar panel, wind turbine generator etc can be linked to a battery then the battery can be linked to the fridge. As long as the voltage is between 12 and 24 volts. 14. I have a boat! Can I fit the fridge onboard? Yes. Unlike metal fridges that are susceptible to corrosion, this fridge is a seaworthy fridge, provided it is located away from direct contact with salt water. If used continuously on a boat, the refrigeration unit must be sealed with a water repellent/ sealant (marinised). 15. Does the fridge have to operate on a level surface? No. The fridge will happily operate at angles up to 30C. However, where ever practicable, please ensure that the resting surface of the fridge is level and horizontal.
