ARB Elements Fridge
QUICK START GUIDE
This unit enables communication between an ARB Fridge Freezer and a Smartphone App or ARB LINX.
Installation
The ARB fridge freezer must be wireless ready. Wireless ready fridges have a socket with rubber boot on the back panel near
the DC socket for connecting this unit.
On the rear of the ARB fridge, remove the rubber boot that covers the socket. Leave the boot connected to the fridge but rotate
it 90o. Plug the wired connector of the unit into the socket.
Carefully align the unit with the screw holes taking care not to crush the wires or rubber boot. Affix the unit with the two screws
supplied. Screw the aerial onto unit. Orientate the aerial to reduce physical interference with the vehicle, a vertical origination
is recommended.

There are various generations of ARB fridges with different levels of compatibility.
Early model ARB fridges with wireless compatibility can send information to an external device (Smartphone or ARB LINX).
Information sent from the fridge includes:
Fridge temperature.
Fridge voltage.
Compressor status.
Late model ARB fridges can send information and receive commands from compatible devices (e.g. Smartphone or ARB LINX).
