Waeco COOLFREEZE-CFX-65 user manual

Waeco refrigeration products, which includes the CoolFreeze CFX-65, are now sold and marketed under the Dometic brand. Dometic Group purchased Waeco International in 2007, effectively taking over all its products and innovations. Therefore, if you're looking for a Waeco fridge, you might have better luck searching for Dometic products instead.

To perform a factory reset on your Dometic CFX cooler, please follow these steps:

7. Release the reset button and wait for a few seconds.
8. Reconnect the power cable to the cooler.

The Dometic Waeco CF and CFX are both series of portable refrigerators and freezers, but there are some key differences between the two:
1. Design and Build: The CF series has a traditional design with a lid that opens from the top, while the CFX series has a more modern design with a lid that opens from the shorter side. The CFX series also features reinforced corners and stainless steel hinges for durability.
2. Cooling Technology: The CF series uses a compressor-based cooling system, while the CFX series utilizes Dometic's advanced compressor technology with a Variable Motor Speed Optimisation (VMSO) compressor. This allows the CFX series to cool down faster and maintain more consistent temperatures, even in extreme conditions.
3. Temperature Control: The CF series typically has a simple temperature control dial, while the CFX series is equipped with an advanced digital display that allows precise temperature settings and also provides more information such as battery voltage, status indicators, and more.
4. Energy Efficiency: The CFX series is designed to be more energy-efficient than the CF series, allowing it to run for longer periods on battery power without draining as much energy. This is beneficial for extended outdoor trips or when using alternative power sources like solar panels.
5. Additional Features: The CFX series often comes with additional features like USB ports for charging devices, WiFi connectivity for smartphone control and monitoring, and an app that provides temperature control and alerts. These features are not typically found in the CF series.
Overall, the CFX series offers more advanced technology, greater energy efficiency, and additional features compared to the CF series. However, the specific features and capabilities may vary between different models within each series, so it's important to refer to the product specifications and compare them before making a purchase.
