8. Power Modes (MAX/ECO)

The refrigerator features two operating modes to optimize performance based on your needs:

• Mode MAX: Provides maximum cooling power for the fastest temperature drop. Ideal for initial cooling or when rapid chilling is required.
• Mode écologique: Optimizes energy consumption for extended use, especially when powered by a battery. This mode reduces power draw while maintaining the set temperature efficiently.

9. Système de protection de la batterie

To prevent your vehicle's battery from being fully discharged, the AstroAI refrigerator includes a three-level battery protection system. This system monitors the input voltage and will automatically shut off the compressor if the voltage drops below the selected level. The compressor will restart once the voltage revient à un niveau sûr.

• Mode élevé (H) : Provides maximum protection for your vehicle's battery. The compressor will cut off at a higher voltage.
• Mode moyen (M) : A balanced setting for battery protection and extended operation.
• Mode faible (L) : Allows the refrigerator to use more of the battery energy before cutting off. Use this mode if you have a dedicated auxiliary battery or a robust power bank.

Note: "Cut-out" is the input voltage at which the fridge/freezer will turn off. "Cut-in" is the input voltage at which the fridge/freezer will turn on.

10. Entretien

• Nettoyage: Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the interior and exterior. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
• Dégivrage: If ice builds up, turn off the unit and allow the ice to melt naturally. Remove all contents before defrosting. Wipe dry after defrosting.
• Stockage: If storing for an extended period, ensure the unit is clean and dry. Leave the lid slightly ajar to prevent odors and mold growth.

11. Dépannage

If you encounter issues with your AstroAI 15L Portable Car Refrigerator, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• L'appareil ne s'allume pas : Check power connections (DC or AC). Ensure the power outlet is functional. Verify the battery protection mode is not set too high for your power source.
• Refroidissement inefficace : Ensure vents are not blocked. Check if the ambient temperature is extremely high. Verify the temperature setting is correct. Switch to MAX mode for faster cooling.
• Codes d'erreur : If an error code (e.g., E1 for low voltage) appears on the display, consult the user manual for specific meanings and solutions. Often, adjusting the battery protection mode or ensuring a stable power supply resolves these.
• Bruit inhabituel : Ensure the unit is on a flat, stable surface. Check for any obstructions around the fan.
