1. A method of operating a refrigeration system for a refrigerated mobile cargo container, the method comprising: sensing a temperature outside of the refrigerated mobile cargo container;detecting a position of a door on the refrigerated mobile cargo container;deactivating the refrigeration system if the door is open and the temperature outside of the refrigerated mobile cargo container is less than a predetermined value; andoperating the refrigeration system if the door is open and the temperature outside of the refrigerated mobile cargo container is greater than the predetermined value. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising: activating the refrigeration system at low speed if the door is open, the temperature outside of the refrigerated mobile cargo container is below the predetermined value, and the refrigeration system is programmed for low speed operation. 3. The method of claim 1, further comprising: operating the refrigeration system at a low speed mode if the door is open and the temperature outside of the refrigerated mobile cargo container is greater than the predetermined value. 4. The method of claim 1, further comprising: selectively operating the refrigeration system at one of a high speed and a low speed if the temperature outside of the refrigerated mobile cargo container is greater than the predetermined value. 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising: selectively inputting the predetermined value into a controller operatively connected to the refrigeration system. 6. A refrigerated mobile cargo container comprising: a door;a door position sensor configured and disposed to detect a position of the at least one door;a temperature sensor configured and disposed to detect a temperature outside of the refrigerated mobile cargo container;a refrigeration system selectively operable to condition an interior storage zone of the refrigerated mobile cargo container; anda controller operatively coupled to the door position sensor, temperature sensor, and the refrigeration system, the controller selectively activating the refrigeration system based on inputs from the door position sensor and the temperature sensor to deactivate the refrigeration system if the door is open and the temperature outside of the refrigerated mobile cargo container is less than a predetermined value, and operate the refrigeration system if the door is open and the temperature outside of the refrigerated mobile cargo container is greater than the predetermined value. 7. The refrigerated mobile cargo container according to claim 6, further comprising: an input device operatively coupled to the controller, the input device facilitating user inputs to the controller.
