    The Dometic CFX3 Mega Thread

    Sorry for the delayed update, but I did finally get the refund check from Dometic. It was a long process, and involved constantly communicating to understand the "weekly mistake" that caused each additional delay. I spent about 1/2 the refund on a chinese fridge sold by a chinese company...

    I would bet money this will be corrected in the near future. You will own a mistake. I would recommend you return it, and wait for the correction. Do you really think Dometic is just going to continue selling this product into the market without this dual supply capability? Of course they...

    Dometic CFX3 Recall info thread

    My purchase was online via Camping World, but the cooler was drop shipped from Dometic. They only asked for the order confirmation email. I don't know how long you have to decide. They briefly tried to discuss that warning label remedy, but when I pointed out the website and manual both...

    So, I will say this for Dometic, they seem to be rather well-practiced at handling the return and refund of their products. A brief call to the recall number listed in the pdf, and my CFX3 75DZ is now waiting on the front porch to be picked up by the UPS man tomorrow. I would encourage anyone...

    From your thread: "The resolution is to attach an additional warning sticker to your cooler. There is no need to return your cooler unless you want to due to the recall. We're happy to honor these requests. " Is that a Joke? A warning sticker? When will the fault be corrected? Will the...

    Since many new vehicles include a small inverter, the use case is simple to understand. When plugged into the vehicle's factory AC inverter, and the 12V system, the fridge will be powered by the AC when the vehicle is running. Battery power will be used when the vehicle is stopped. This is...

    Just an FYI since it doesn't seem to be clearly stated here. This issue I was having while attached to AC and DC has now become a recall for the CFX3 units produced between Nov 2019 and Jun 2020. I suspect that is 100% of the initial production batch. Looks like they are all going back...

    That does help. I reset it, and reviewed the manual. It does state it should prioritize AC supply. (of course just like the CFX40 manual, it also says not to plug in both cables despite advertising the feature) It seems to be working now. Watching the meter it seems to handle the hand-off...

    Just received my new CFX3 75DZ to replace a CFX40. Love the size but I have a problem. I had my CFX40 plugged into the in-vehicle AC inverter that was powered when the vehicle was running. It was also plugged into my 12v regulated supply from my solar / battery system (isolated from the...
