Operation

• When using the refrigerator for the first time, there may be a mild odor that will disappear after a few hours. Air out the living space well.
• The cooling capacity can be affected by:
• The ambient temperature (e.g., when the vehicle is exposed to direct sunlight).
• The amount of food to be refrigerated.
