3. What is the difference between LGCF45 and CF45? What does 'LG' mean?
Except for the compressor, LGCF45 and CF45 have the same configurations. LGCF45 uses LG compressor, and CF45 uses Chinese compressor. 'LG' refers to Korean LG compressor.
4. Which models use LG compressors?
We currently only use LG compressors for LGT50/LGT60/LGCF45/LGCF55.
5. How long is the warranty?
1 year warranty for the whole machine and 2 year warranty for the compressor.
6. Does it work like a regular cooler when it is not plugged in?
It can stay cool for about 4 hours without being plugged in.
7. How loud is the compressor when running on Eco mode?
When you use the refrigerator in your car and plug it into a 12V socket, the noise is almost imperceptible!
8. Can I simultaneously have different temperatures between the freezer and refrigerator?
Dear customer, you can chose the Alpicool T series, TA series,TAW series, they have dual temperature control function in one refrigerator for your needs.
9. The CF45 was delivered upside-down, not sure how long the unit was upside-down. Will the unit still work properly?
If the box was undamaged, do not plug it in until after reading the instructions, inspecting it, and after sitting right side up for the minimum of 12 hours or following the instructions in the booklet included. Plugging a refrigeration unit in after moving it at angles over 45 degrees can burn out the compressor motor as the fluids have not settled. Settling takes time. Ours works great! came on a wheelbarrow, moved onto a ship, unboxed on end, sat unplugged in the chosen location for the required time, plugged in and set up according to instructions.
10. Will the fan/compressor turn off when the unit reaches set temp, and then turn on again when it gets too warm?
Yes that is how it operates. It cools to the set temp, warms up and repeats.
11. Photos of the C40 show the top openings from the ends and sides. Which way is accurate?
You can switch the door opening to either direction with the already provided hinges.
12. Is it possible to replace the K18 with a 12V adapter?
Yes, you can get AC/DC and 12V power cables online. Make sure the adapter fits Alpicool.
13. Just received unit and it will not turn on. control panel lit up, it beeped and shut off. no response from ac or dc. what is the issue?
You have to hold the on button down for about 3-4 seconds. It won’t turn on by just touching the button.

I bought this unit because it had the upgraded LG compressor. And after doing lots of research this fridge checked the boxes for the money. It uses the same compressor as those high end overland fridges costing over $1000. The problem is some of the smaller parts on this fridge aren’t up to spec with those high-end models. Specifically the insulation and seal around the lid aren’t as good. But my main problem is with the lid latch. I have been gentle with it after looking at other reviews of this fridge with people saying the latch breaks. Well wouldn’t you know it my latch broke too after using it for maybe a month. It’s definitely a design defect and the build quality of the latch leaves much to be desired. The fridge still works even without the latch and that is how I’ve been using it. I still feel you get a lot for your money with this fridge but just know corners have been cut for cost.

It keeps my food cold. Shuts off when ignition is off and complete on when vehicle starts.

The one pic shows the fridge loaded with 24 cans of b…..soda. 4 16oz soda bottles, 3 20oz Gatorade bottles, and four water bottles in the main compartment and there was still too for more Laing across the top. The small compartment had 3 pounds of sliced meat and cheese, dukes mayo, and a small loaf of sourdough bread(so it didn’t get crushed). There was a lot of space left in that compartment too. Spend the extra money and get the model with the LG compressor.
