FEATURES
1. Cooling. This appliance is designed to cool food and drink. Best results will be obtained
when it is filled with food and drink which is already cold. It will take some hours to cool
food and drink that is at room temperature.
2. Warming. The appliance is also designed to keep food warm, although not to heat cold
food. Nevertheless, if you leave the food for long enough it will eventually start to warm
up. The food will remain warm for quite a while even after disconnecting the appliance
from the power supply.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
How to connect the power cable:
Warning! Put the power switch into the ‘0’ position before connecting the cable to the
power socket.
The appliance can be connected to more than one power source but not at the same
time.
230 V Power supply: (AC)
Warning! Do not use any other method of connecting the unit to the AC power supply. It
could cause a fire or electric shock.
Connect one end of the AC power cable to the
AC power socket
on the coolbox and connect
the other end to the mains power supply at home or at the campsite.
12V Power supply: (DC)
Connect one end of the DC power cable to the DC power socket and the other end to the
cigarette lighter socket inside the car or boat.
How to use the AC/DC power selector switch
Select AC or DC according to the power source.
If you put the switch in the ‘0’ position the appliance is switched off completely, even if
one of the cables remains connected to the power supply or you have selected COLD or
HOT.
How to use the HOT/COLD switch
Once you have decided between AC or DC current you need only move the switch to the
position you require: COLD to put the unit into cooling mode and HOT to keep food hot.
When you select COLD a green LED will light up to indicate that it is operating. Selecting
the HOT function will switch on the red LED.
Do not switch directly from COLD to HOT mode or from HOT to COLD mode. Instead,
keep the selector switch in the ‘0’ position for 5 minutes before changing the operating
mode. Failure to do so could affect or damage the internal refrigeration system.
PRECAUTIONS
- Do not put electrical appliances in the coolbox.
- To avoid electrical hazards, do not wet or splash the surface of the appliance while it is
on. Do not remove the plug with wet hands.
