Spring Maintenance Guide for Your myCOOLMAN Single Zone Fridge / Freezers

A portable fridge that's been packed away over winter benefits from a proper check before the season's first trip. The myCOOLMAN 20L Portable Fridge/Freezer is a single-zone compressor unit sized for day trips, overnighters and tight spaces, running from 12/24V DC in the vehicle or 240V AC on site.

Before the first trip

Check the interior is clean and dry, and inspect the door seal for any signs of wear that could let cold air escape. Give the vehicle lead and mains adaptor a visual once-over for any damage before plugging in.

Getting the best from it

Pre-cool the cabinet and its contents before you set off rather than loading it warm. Allow ventilation around the compressor end and keep it shaded where possible, since heat build-up affects efficiency. It draws on 3-stage low-voltage protection to look after your starter or leisure battery, and it's compatible with the myCOOLMAN PowerPack if you want cordless cooling away from the vehicle.

On the move

Secure it using the approved tie-down points and keep it level when parked. Lower-power settings suit overnight use on battery, while switching to a higher setting will pull the temperature down faster when needed.
