The Russell Hobbs 4L Mini Fridge excels in providing personal temperature control wherever you need it. For cooling, it's perfect for keeping soft drinks, bottled water, snacks, skincare products, or medications chilled at your desk, bedside, or in your car during a road trip. It typically cools items to approximately 20°C below the ambient room temperature. For example, in a 25°C room, it can maintain contents at around 5°C.
When switched to warming mode, this mini fridge can keep coffee, soup, baby bottles, or small takeaway meals warm, reaching temperatures up to 60°C. This feature is particularly useful for commutes or in offices where access to microwaves is limited.
Its compact footprint and lightweight construction make it an ideal companion for various scenarios:
In the office: Keep your lunch or drinks cool through the workday.
In a bedroom/dorm room: Convenient access to chilled beverages or snacks without needing to go to a main kitchen.
In a car/RV: Power it via the 12V DC car adapter to keep road trip essentials cool or warm.
For beauty products: Store certain skincare products at a cooler temperature for extended efficacy.
Remember that this is a thermoelectric unit, meaning it's designed for maintaining temperatures rather than rapidly chilling or heating items. For best results, place pre-chilled or pre-heated items inside.
Unboxing: Remove all packaging materials and place the mini fridge on a stable, flat surface. Ensure adequate ventilation around all sides of the unit.
Power Connection:
For Home/Office (AC): Plug the AC power cord into the AC port on the back of the mini fridge, then into a standard wall outlet.
For Car/Vehicle (DC): Plug the DC power cord into the DC port on the back of the mini fridge, then into your vehicle's 12V cigarette lighter socket.
Operation: Locate the COOL/OFF/HEAT switch on the back or side of the unit. Select COOL for chilling or HEAT for warming. The indicator light (usually red for warm, green for cool) will illuminate.

Power: Compatible with standard household 100-240V AC outlets and 12V DC vehicle power sockets.
Space: Designed for small spaces like desks, shelves, or car seats. Ensure enough room for airflow.
Cleaning:
Always unplug the unit before cleaning.
Wipe the interior and exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. A mild soap can be used for stubborn stains, but ensure no liquid enters the electronic components.
Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Dry thoroughly before plugging it back in.
Ventilation: Ensure the fan and vents on the back of the unit are not blocked. Proper airflow is crucial for efficient cooling and warming.
Storage: If storing for an extended period, ensure the unit is clean, dry, and unplugged. Store in a cool, dry place.
