The owners manual says that the fridge may not be able to cool food at temps
exceeding 90f, mine does seem to work in that kind of heat if I put in some
frozen squishy blue packs before I start it up

 I have only had mine during the summer months but, it got damn near
freezing one night while camping, I did have my supplemental blue packs in it.
