SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•
DANGER!
Never touch uninsulated cables with bare hands.
This applies especially to handling AC cables.
•
DANGER!
When installed in a boat, and the device is
operated with power cords, it is necessary that the system is
protected by a fuse and an earth leakage protection device.
• Installation of AC in a boat/vehicle should be completed
by a qualified technician.
• Always ensure that your refrigerator is disconnected from
the battery before using a high-speed battery charger.
• Always ensure that the correct voltage is applied to the
refrigerator, the voltage is stated on the refrigerator or
cooling unit's data plate.
• Never open the cooling circuit.
• Always be aware that batteries contain corrosive acid and
therefore should be treated with extreme care.
• The cooling device is not appropriate for transporting
corrosive or solvent-comprising substances.
• Never obstruct vents to the refrigerator’s compressor.
• Defrost the refrigerator on a regular basis.
• Never use hard or sharp instruments to remove ice
from the liner.
• Never use abrasive or solvent based materials
when cleaning the liner.
• When the refrigerator or cooling device comes to the end of
its working life, it should be disposed of by appropriate per-
son to ensure that is does not contaminate the environment.
• Do not use any electric appliance inside the cooling
compartment.

GENERAL
APPLICATION AND OPERATIVE RANGE
The coolbox contains compartments with different temperature
zones. The values for inside temperature are related to the
middle of the box. Your cooler is designed to refrigerate or
freeze food. The unit may also be used for remote purposes. If
you wish to refrigerate medicines, first check if the refrigerator’s
cooling capacity meets the demands of the respective
medicines. The refrigerator is designed to operate in ambient
temperatures between 14°—120°F in a maximum air humidity
of 90%. The refrigerator can operate continuously at an angle of
30° maximum. All materials which have been used in the
manufacture of these appliances are generally recognized as fit
for purpose. The refrigerant charge used in the cooling circuit is
CFC-free.
INSTALLATION
After unpacking the device check that no parts are missing or
the device has not been damaged. Place the cooling device in a
dry place that is protected against splashing water. Devices
equipped with a AC power pack must not be exposed to wet
conditions. Assure that the appliance does not get wet. These
units consist of two connections: for the (1) 12/24V DC and
(2) 110/240V AC.
The unit should not be placed directly adjacent to sources of heat
such as heating, gas ovens, hot water, pipes or under the
blazing sun. The cooling unit must be installed in such a way that
the air warmed up through the condenser can escape without
problems.
BATTERY OPERATION
Your cooling device can be operated with 12V or 24V direct volt-
age. Prior to connection, check whether the voltage indication
on the type plate is in accordance with the battery voltage.
Connect your cooling device as directly as possible to the poles
of the battery or to a plug connection with at least 15 A fuse.
Pay attention that the plus-wire is connected on to the positive
pole and the minus-one to the negative pole. In order to avoid
loss of voltage and thus decrease of performance, the cable
should be as short as possible and not interrupted. For this
reason, avoid additional switches plugs or feeder boxes.
A fuse is located in the plug of the power cord.
If the connecting cable is too short or does not adhere to require-
ments of your model, you will need to purchase a
suitable cable or an extension from a WAECO specialized dealer.
Determine the required wire gauge by means of the following
outline.
