I
8 Troubleshooting
NOTE
Like every cooling device, your cooler must be properly ventilated
so that any heat created can dissipate. Otherwise proper function-
ing cannot be ensured.
NOTE
If you connect the cooler to the cigarette lighter, remember that
the ignition must be turned on to supply it with power.
Fault Possible cause Suggested remedy
Your cooler does not work
(plug is inserted). There is no voltage
flowing from the 12 V
socket (cigarette
lighter) in your vehicle. The ignition must be switched on in
most vehicles for voltage to flow at the
cigarette lighter.
The cooler does not cool
(plug is inserted). The inner fan or the
cooling element is
defective. This can only be repaired by an author-
ised customer services unit.
Operation with a 12 V
socket (cigarette lighter):
The ignition is on and the
cooler is not working.
Pull the plug out of the
socket and make the fol-
lowing checks.
The cigarette lighter
socket is dirty. This
results in a poor elec-
trical contact. If the plug of your cooler becomes very
warm in the cigarette lighter socket,
either the socket must be cleaned or the
plug has not been assembled correctly.
The fuse of the 12 V
plug has blown. Replace the fuse (5 A) in the 12 V plug
(fig.

1, page 3).
The vehicle fuse has
blown. Replace the vehicle's 12 V socket fuse
(usually 15 A). (Please refer to the oper-
ating manual of your vehicle.)
