Setting the Temperature - 50 Litre
The digital thermostat fitted to the National
Luna Portable refrigerator allows accurate
setting of the desired cooling temperatures
in the left hand fridge bin. (40 Litres)
Bin temperatures can be selected between
+20°C and -12°C in 1°C increments.
When powering up the fridge, the temperature inside the fridge will be reflected on the display.
(NOTE: the previously set temperature will be in memory)
To select the new cooling temperature, press and hold the button until the display starts to flash.
(The previous set temperature will be displayed).
Press or to raise or lower the desired temperature. The thermostat will accept the new
setting and exit the setting mode 10 seconds after the last button was pressed. (It will now remember
the new set temperature).
The temperature display will reflect the inner bin temperature prior to the new setting. Provided the
new setting is colder, the compressor will then switch on and cool the fridge further to the set point.
(During this time the run indicator light will be displayed).

•
The 50 Litre Twin operates on a ratio of cooling capacity between the fridge and the freezer bin.
•
The thermostat control is placed on the fridge bin side and controls fridge temperature only.
•
The freezer has more cooling capability than the fridge compartment and will cool down to
approximately 10°C colder than the fridge.
•
The thermostat may be set down as low as -12°C which will aid the cooling down of a large volume
of warm goods which have been placed in the fridge.
Under this condition the compressor will run at high speed and possibly continuously if the ambient
temperature is very high. The freezer compartment could get extremely cold (i.e -25°C).
It is not ideal to run the fridge bin at low temperatures with the intention of running a dual freezer
combination.
This unit was not designed primarily to be used as a dual freezer.
Should the user choose to do so, power consumption will increase above single bin freezers.
Temperature dynamics of this unique fridge/freezer
During times when the ambient temperature surrounding the
Weekender 50-Twin is below the thermostat setting, the fridge will
not be required to run. Under this condition, the freezer compart-
ment will not cool as this requires the fridge compartment to be cooled.
This condition may occur during winter months if the thermostat is not set to
a lower temperature than ambient.
