Fridge Operation

This section explains how to operate the 12V fridge installed in the BreathTrailer.

The fridge is designed for efficient off-grid operation and is powered directly from the trailer’s 12V battery system.


Fridge Overview

The BreathTrailer is equipped with a 12V refrigerator, with capacity depending on the trailer model:

  • 30L
  • 60L

The fridge operates automatically once power is supplied and does not require connection to camp site electricity.


Power Supply

  • The fridge operates exclusively on 12V power
  • Power is supplied directly from the trailer battery
  • The fridge remains operational even when the trailer is not connected to camp site power

How to Use the Fridge

To operate the fridge:

  1. Turn ON the main 12V power switch inside the trailer box.
  2. The fridge will start operating automatically.
  3. Adjust temperature settings on the fridge control panel if required.

✔️ No additional setup is required.


Power Consumption

  • Continuous fridge operation will draw power from the battery.
  • Battery charge level affects how long the fridge can run without recharging.

To maintain battery charge: - Use solar charging whenever possible. - Monitor battery level daily. - Avoid opening the fridge unnecessarily.


Usage Tips

  • Pre-cool food and drinks before placing them in the fridge.
  • Keep the fridge well ventilated.
  • Do not overload the fridge beyond its capacity.

Important Notes

  • Ensure the fridge is switched OFF during long-term storage.
  • Do not use the fridge if the battery level is critically low.
  • If the fridge does not operate, check the main 12V power switch and battery charge.

Correct use of the fridge ensures efficient cooling and reliable performance during your BreathTrailer adventures.
