and when the fridge is no longer in use.
• Ensure that the voltage details shown on the nameplate
are correct for the sockets and connection points avai-
lable.
• Before switching on, ensure that the power cable and
sockets are dry and in good condition.
• Do not use in very dusty areas. Dust may block the
ventilation ducts, damaging the fridge.
Warning: risk of overheating!
• Ensure that the heat generated by the fridge when
switched on is adequately ventilated. Ensure that there
is sufficient space between the appliance and the walls
or other objects allows air to circulate freely (at least 30
cm).

After usage, do not touch the metal tip of the
plug as it can get very hot.
•
If the vehicle does not have an accessory socket,
connect the 12 V DC plug to the cigarette lighter socket.
Warning:
this connection may cause the car
plug and the vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket to
overheat.
Regularly check that the appliance is functioning
correctly and that the temperature of the car plug and the
cigarette lighter socket is not too hot.
If using the cigarette lighter socket, never leave the ap-
pliance unattended.

4. USER INSTRUCTIONS
• Suitable for use on campsites.
• The appliance must never be exposed to rain.
• This appliance is designed for use in domestic and
similar applications.
• To ensure good hygiene, clean the inside and outside of
the fridge each time you use it.
• We recommend that food and drink is placed in the
fridge which has already been cooled.
• Leave warm food to cool before storing it
in the appliance.
• Place the fridge on a flat and stable base with the cover
at the top (excluding the Shiver 40-12 V model).
• The fridge should be opened as little as possible and
immediately closed to maintain a constant temperature
inside.
• Even when the fridge is switched off, thanks to its
special insulation food and drink will be kept cool for a
long time. To enhance and extend the cooling effect, we
recommend using original Gio’Style cooling blocks (see
accessories table).
• External operating temperature between 16°C and
38°C.
Warning!
The appliance is designed to keep food and
drinks cool in their original containers.
Do not use the product continuously for more than 72
hours.
Prolonged and continued use may reduce the efficiency
of the fridge or damage the cooling system.
Warning!
After a long period of operation, water deposits
may be found inside the fridge. This is normal
and is caused by moisture in the air which condenses
when it cools. The fridge is not faulty. If necessary, remo-
ve excess moisture with a dry cloth.
NOTE!
The fridge is cooled using a Peltier system which
is free from CFCs and cooling fluids.
5. OPERATION
Once connected to a power source, the fridge functions
immediately. The electric fridge can cool food and keep
it cool at an internal temperature which is lower than the
external temperature 13°C and 20°C.
