FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS TO AVOID
INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
AWARNING
1. To help prevent food poisoning, keep cooked foods at 140F orhotter. If
the food temperature drops below 140F for2 hours, reheat thoroughly
before serving.
2. Do not heat sealed containers. These containers may burst from internal
pressure which increases during heating, thereby causing personal injury
or damage to the cooler.
3. Always shelter your cooler and optional power supply from rain and snow.
Water splashed on the power supply, fan motor, or other electrical parts may
result in fire, causing personal injury or component failure.
4. This cooler operates only on power sources ranging from 9.5 to 14.4 Volts DC.
These are voltages typically found in the batteries of cars and trucks.
Connecting the cooler, without adaptation, directly to a 120 Volt AC wall
socket will destroy the fan motor and the Thermoelectric Module. A 120-
Volt AC wall adapter is sold separately.
5. Do not use ice in this cooler. Water from the melting ice may damage the
fan motor or create frost-buildup on the inside aluminum fins.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This cooler may be operated in either a horizontal or vertical position, when used in the sect-
cal position, make sure that the cooling vent is always positioned at the top and that it is
never covered.
The cooler’s lid
may
be removed and then, for additional convenience, reinstalled to open in
the opposite direction. To change the direction of the lid’sopening:
1. Place the cooler with its back surface on the floor
2. Open the lid until it contacts the two built-in stops forthe lid
3. Now, open the lid still further until it pops out of the cooler’s case
4. Switch latch plate and cover plate on liner so that latch plate will match reversed
lid opening.
5. Rotate the lid, and replace the lid on the cooler case
6. Push down on the lid near its hinge pins until they are positively engaged in the hinge
sockets of the case
NOTE: This cooler generates heel Conseqtientfy, if needs tree circulation oVal, fopedormpmp-

PLEASE NOTE: When a vehicle’s batteryis not being charged (usually afren the vehicle’s
engine is not running), this cooler shouldnot be operatedmore than about 4 hours. Longer
operation will almost always shorten the battery’s life in the long term and diminish its starting
power in the short term. (See the following section on PV/Marine batteries forbattery usage
overextendedperiods of time.)
(PLEASE NOTE: Battery chargers haye anAC output that will damage the fan motorand
reduce cooling performance. The 12-voll battery in the circuit removes this harmful AC output.)
KEEPING FOODS AND BEVERAGES COLD
FIGURE 2
1. Connect the POWER CORDLINK with the BLUE thermometer symbolsaligned, as
shown in figLre 2.
2. Connect the cooler to one of the power sources previously mentioned.
3. This cootar will not chill foods and beverages as fast as your home refrigerator. Please
don’t expect to do so. An empty cooler will cool down in about 3 hours. Warm terns
paced in the coolerwill sow the cooling rate.
