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.
+ Only use the supplied AC Adapter and cables with
this fridge.
