Thermo Electric Mobile Office
Fridge/Warmer
By Wagan Tech
HOW THIS UNIT WORKS:
The Personal Fridge/Warmer uses 12 Volt Direct Current power source. This
system allows for easy power access from almost any Automotive or Marine
vehicle. The Personal Fridge/Warmer is also equipped with an adapter that
operates via the vehicle’s cigarette lighter. Simply plug the male adapter into the
12 Volt socket, and the female end of the cord into the two-prong socket on the
Fridge/ Warmer.
OPERATION:
1.
Check to make sure the cooler /warmer selector switch is in the middle
OFF position.
2.
Plug the cigarette lighter plug into the cigarette lighter socket in your
vehicle or other 12 volt DC power supply (minimum 5 Amps).
3.
Move the switch into the position of the desired function, COOLER or
WARMER.
4.
The LED indicator light, green for cooler, red for warmer will illuminate
to show the unit is working.
5.
Place items inside the storage compartment and close the lid.
You should allow 15 minutes for the unit to return to ambient temperature when
changing unit from hot to cold or vice versa.
The Personal Fridge/Warmer utilizes low battery power and can operate up to
three hours on a normal car battery. For any extended time beyond that, it is
suggested that the unit be used with a running engine, or else the battery levels
may be become too low to start the engine.

TROUBLESHOOTING:
If the unit seems to be not working properly:
First check to see if the adapter is firmly secured within the lighter socket before
proceeding. Also, see if the two-prong socket is firmly attached to the cooling unit.
If both adapters are securely plugged in, make sure that the battery source has
enough power to charge the unit. Try plugging the unit into another power source,
and checking to see if the unit can work with this new power source.
Some parts of the 12Volt adaptor may come loose after prolonged use, and may
dislodge them. If this is the case, simply retighten the adapter top by screwing in
crisscrossed top until tight.
SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE:
To maintain optimum working efficiency, periodically clean the unit with a damp,
cotton cloth. Avoid harsh cleaning agents as they can damage the unit’s electrical
wiring.
-
Please keep the unit out of temperature extremes, as excessive heat or
cold can cause the exterior shell to become hard and brittle and will
increase the likelihood of fractures.
-
Due to the electrical nature of the unit please be careful while handling
liquids around the exterior of the unit.
-
Do not
operate unit for long extended periods of time as it may drain the
battery source.
-
Do not use ice in your Thermo Electric Personal Fridge/Warmer. Never
fill your unit with liquid which is not in containers. Liquid can corrode
the fan and motor parts, impairing performance.
-
Air intake and fan areas should never be blocked. Never operate your unit
in a car trunk or enclosed area.
-
Always unplug your unit before cleaning.
-
Avoid all contact with enclosed or metal parts while your unit is in use.
Electrical shock or burn may result.
-
Keep your Personal Fridge/Warmer in a clean environment with good
airflow. Pet hair, dust and dirt may impair your unit’s operation and void
