It is not necessary to consider the polarity when connecting the unit. Check that the
battery voltage and line voltage data correspond to the type-plate on the back of the unit.
If no batteries are used independently of the vehicle, the mobile cooler should only be
operational when the vehicle is in motion, since the battery can discharge to the extent
that the vehicle engine cannot restart when the vehicle is at a standstill.
Recommendation: before journey, pre-cool the unit using A/C operation.
To turn on
Plug the car plug mounted on the connecting cable into the plug connector/cigarette
lighter. If the unit is equipped with a special car plug (with adapter), the adapter can be
removed to correspond to the various plug connectors: Click off by turning in the opposite
direction to the arrow and pull off axially.
When using battery operation, the cooling performance is not thermostatically regulated,
i.e. knob A is ineffective.
Only units exclusively equipped for use with one of the two electrical operation methods
- A/C or D/C - can, in general, be thermostatically regulated by using knob
A
in the
relevant operation method.
When knob
A
is ineffective or if the temperature is unnecessarily too low:
Turn unit off
Pull out plug from socket.
8. Liquid gas operation
Do not use any additional form of energy (mains/battery). The unit must not be connected
to town or natural gas pipelines. It is only suitable for use with propane/butane gas (e.g.
Calor gas, camping gas, caravan gas, etc.).
The mobilCooler is equipped for a specific gas-pressure, corresponding to the standard
pressure of the country in which it is sold. The rating-plate states the pressure which is
correct. It is important that a non-adjustable pressure regulator is used to reduce the
pressure in the gas cylinder to the operating pressure specified on the rating-plate, no
other pressure may be used.
Needle valve operated gas control taps are NOT suitable for use with this appliance
and must not be used as a substitute for a pressure regulator.
9. Connection of gas supply
(The following instructions refer in the main to coolers manufactured in the United
Kingdom. For other countries please refer to your supplier.)
Always connect in the following sequence:
GAS BOTTLE
→
→
PRESSURE REGULATOR
→
→
APPLIANCE.
To connect the appliance to the pressure regulator an APPROVED GAS TUBING should
be used. This should be minimum in length-have an inside dimension of 8mm and be
marked BS3212/2/8.
The pressure-regulator must be compatible for Butan 11 in (28mbar) or for
Propane(37mbar).
