DOWN UNDER SERIES II Did you know? Just like your fridge at home, all EvaKool fridge freezers will cycle on and off. This means you will hear the fridge turn on (cycle on) and commence cooling, then once it gets down to the set temperature, it will cycle off again. Subsequently, the temperature displayed on the fridge will fluctuate by a couple of degrees from the set temperature.
