FOOD SAFE!
This
product has no adverse
effect on taste or smell.
General information on use
The coolbox is not suitable for continuous oper-
ation. Ice can form on the aluminium cooling
plate. We recommend that the coolbox is
switched off after it has been in operation for
6 days. The coolbox can be put back into op-
eration after 2 hours.
Dry the surfaces of your coolbox contents so
that a build-up of condensation is avoided.
If the coolbox is not being used, keep the
connection cables in the storage compartment
provided in the lid of the coolbox.
When operating with a 12 V power source, be
careful not to switch the car engine on and off
frequently, so that the power supply to the cool-
box is not interrupted constantly. Also be aware
that the car battery can be run down too far, if
the engine is switched off.
The two convex indentations
4
in the inside of
the lid can be used to store standard bottles
with a standing height of max. 42 cm.
In order to prevent freezing of the coolbox
contents when operating with 12 V, the coolbox
should not be operated below 18 °C outside
temperature.
Operation
Due to the materials used, the inside of the cool box
may emit an odour typical for the product prior to
first use. This odour is harmless, but for reasons of
hygiene we do recommend wiping the inside and
outside of the cool box with a damp cloth (also see
chapter „Cleaning and Care“) prior to first use. Fur-
ther, do not store unpackaged foods in it.
Place the coolbox on a firm and level surface.
The connection cables are fixed to the coolbox
and can be found in the cable compartment
1
in the rear of the lid.
Depending on the choice of power source
required, connect either the 12 V or the 230 V
connection cable to the socket of the power
source selected. The coolbox starts to work im-
mediately.
-
In 12 V operation = the cool box starts working
immediately.
-
In 230 V operation = switch on the cool box
using the cooling efficiency switch
3
at the
front.
Note:
the lid can be locked in the opened position
by means of the handle and hook on the inside of
the lid (see fig. A1).
Function with 230 V operation
in “eco mode”
When operating with a 230 V power supply, the
cooling output can be controlled by means of the
cooling output switch
3
on the front of the lid (see
fig. B).
The coolbox operates in normal operation (cooling
output switch

in the ‘eco’ position - small dot on
the rotary button facing in the direction of ‘eco’ -
see fig. B) with a very high level of energy saving
and achieves an inside temperature of approx. 14°
to 17 °C at an outside temperature of approx. 25 °C.
This corresponds to a Delta T (Delta T = difference
between outside temperature and inside tempera-
ture) of approx. 8 - 11 °C. The energy consumption
corresponds with this to the A+++ energy class.
Since the inside temperature of a coolbox is influ-
enced by the particular ambient temperature, the
Delta T output in ‘eco mode’ is always 8 - 11 °C at
other outside temperatures. You can control the
inside temperature by turning the cooling output
switch
3
:
Turn the cooling output switch
3
clockwise in
the direction of “MAX”. This gives you a lower
(colder) inside temperature value.
