Description And Operation: Refrigerator: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Lincoln MKT. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The floor console may be equipped with a refrigerator feature. The refrigerator operates only when the ignition is in the ON position. The refrigerator should only be used when the engine is running. If there is a need to use the unit when the engine is off, limit the time the refrigerator is running to avoid draining the battery.

If the refrigerator is active and the ignition is turned to the OFF position, the refrigerator will also turn off. The last known state of the refrigerator will be stored into the refrigerator module memory. When the ignition is turned back to the ON position, the refrigerator/freezer will automatically activate to the last known state that is stored in the refrigerator module memory.

The refrigerator/freezer is equipped with the following:

Refrigerator switch (located on the floor console)
Compressor/motor assembly (not serviceable)
Refrigerant (not serviceable)
Refrigerator module
