Plug your 12V lead into the 240V adaptor and then direct to mains power.
Never run direct from the refrigerator to mains power without a 240V adaptor, irreversible damage can occur.
Ventilation
Always allow sufficient air ventilation around the rear, sides and top of the compressor compartment. This will ensure
heat can escape easily from the compressor and condensor.
Transit cover
Your transit cover is designed to protect your ICECO from scratches, minor dints and direct sunlight.
Equalising fridge temperature
If you run your ICECO using the 240V adapter for 4 or 5 hours before placing in your vehicle, this will ensure that
the internal air temperature, condensor and insulation has had time to equalise. Doing this will result in shorter cycle
times and more efficient operation once you run your ICECO on 12V.
Normal Operating Sounds
You may hear faint gurgling, bubbling or whirring sounds when your ICECO is running. This is normal as the refrigerant
is being pumped through the refrigerant coils.
Only use a high quality pure sine wave generator to operate your ICECO. Fluctuations in generator current will damage
the refrigerator and / or the 240V adaptor.
For fail safe operation with a generator we recommend running a battery charger from your generator outlet to a 12V
battery, and then running your ICECO directly from the battery.
COMMON 12V POWER SUPPLY ISSUES
Wiring
Often the standard wiring from the car battery to the 12V outlet is too small.
A minimum 6mm automotive wiring should be used and the earth should bewired directly back to the battery.
Battery
The car battery could be old, undersized or have a dead cell causing too much voltage drop.
Connections
The 12V plug, car 12V socket or any of the connections between the fridge and the battery could be faulty or
have come loose since installation.
6mm(0.24 inch) wiring direct to battery
Having a good power supply is key to your ICECO operating at its best. For optimum results, we recommend using
minimum 6mm automotive wire directly from your 12V power outlet to your cars battery through a 10 Amp fuse. Ensure
the earth is wired back to your battery, not to the chasse. If your wiring is not minimum 6mm or is not direct to your
battery, your ICECO may cut out early due to power drop in your wiring.
100 Ah battery
We recommend using a minimum 100 Ah deep cycle battery for the best long term results.
Matching 12V fittings
Your ICECO is supplied with a 12V cigar plug. If you are using your ICECO in a 4WD then we recommend fitting
a matching 12V socket and 12V plug set. Different cars have varying sized 12V power sockets, so having a matching
set will provide your 12V lead with the best possible connection at all times.
If you decide to fit a different type of 12V fitting other than the one supplied, note that the smooth side of the 12V
lead or the one with writing on it, is the positive.
