temperature) of up to 17 °C and thereby a lower
inside temperature than is possible in the “eco” nor-
mal operation, turn the cooling output switch
3 to
the “MAX” position. Please note that in this case
more energy will be consumed than in normal
operation.
After the operation with 230 V function has been
completed, disconnect the mains plug from the
socket.
Function with 12 V operation
CAUTION! The temperature controller on the
front of the lid is only suited to 230 V operation
and it does not function in 12 V operation.
When operating with a 12 V power supply, the
cooling unit always produces a temperature
difference from the ambient temperature of up
to 17 °C. The cooling output can not be con-
trolled by means of the temperature controller
on the front of the lid.
Tips for the best cooling output
and energy saving
Select a well ventilated location protected from
sunshine.
Only place pre-cooled contents into the cool-
box.
Do not open the coolbox longer than necessary.
Don’t leave the lid open longer than necessary.
Ensure that the coolbox is not packed too
full and that the air can circulate adequately
between the coolbox contents.
In order that a high level of energy saving can
be achieved, normal operation (cooling output
switch
3 in the “eco” position) is recom-
mended for longer periods of use in 230 V
operation.
Exchanging the 12 V fuse
See also fig. C.
To replace the 12 V fuse 10 , unscrew the red
adjustment sleeve 7 from the plug, turning
counter-clockwise.
Unscrew the screw 5 with a suitable Phillips
screwdriver from the top half of the housing 6 .
Lift the top half 6 of the housing from the bot-
tom half 9 .
Lift the contact pin 11 carefully out of the hous-
ing section. The fuse 10 can now be removed.
Note: If the thin metal connection in the mid-
dle between the two metal caps is broken, then
the fuse
10 is defective and must be replaced.
Press the contact spring 8 backwards and
insert the new fuse 10 carefully into the groove
provided for it. Now place the rear edge of the
contact pin
11 on the front metal cap of the fuse
10 . By releasing the contact spring 8 , the fuse
10 and contact pin 11 are located in the groove.
Screw the top and bottom halves of the housing
6 9 together again, reattach the red
adapter sleeve 7 and turn clockwise to tighten.
The plug is now ready for operation.
Possible malfunctions
Firstly check whether you have correctly followed
the instructions for using the coolbox, then also
check:
– Is the connection cable correctly connected
and does your car cigarette lighter / domestic
socket function properly?
– Have you set up the coolbox in such a way
that the air can circulate freely and that venting
of the cooling unit can occur?
– Is the fuse in the plug of the 12 V connection
cable OK?
– Check the position of the cooling output
switch 3 on the front of the lid.
If you can not rectify the malfunction on your own,
please contact our Customer Service (see chapter
on “Service”).
