➤ Open the lid of the cooler. ➤ Place the seat belt into the fixing position (fig. 1 3, page 3) of the cooler. ➤ Close the lid. ➤ Fasten the seat belt and tighten it.

NOTICE! Danger of damaging the device! Ensure at all times that there is sufficient ventilation so that the heat that generated during operation can dissipate. Ensure that the ventilation slots are not covered. Make sure that the device is sufficiently far away from walls and other objects so that the air can circulate. Ensure that the only those objects are placed in the cooler that are intended to be cooled at the selected temperature. Disconnect the cooler and other consumer units from the bat- tery before you connect the battery to a quick charging device. Overvoltage can damage the electronics of the device. The cooler can be operated with 12 V or 24 V

For safety reasons the cooler is equipped with an electronic system to pre- vent polarity reversal. This protects the cooler against short-circuiting when connecting to a battery. ➤ Place the cooler on a firm foundation. Make sure that the ventilation slots are not covered and that the heated air can dissipate. ➤ Connect the 12/24 V connection cable to the cigarette lighter or an 12/24 V socket in your vehicle.

6.9 Using the battery monitor

NOTICE! Danger of damage! When switched off by the battery monitor, the battery will no longer be fully charged. Avoid starting repeatedly or operating current consumers without longer charging phases. Ensure that the battery is recharged. The device is equipped with a multi-level battery monitor that protects your vehicle battery against excessive discharging when the device is connected to the on-board 12/24 V supply. If the cooler is operated when the vehicle ignition is switched off, the cooler switches off automatically as soon as the supply voltage falls below a set lev- el. The cooler will switch back on once the battery has been recharged to the restart voltage level.

NOTE When switched off by the battery monitor due to low voltage the dis- play (fig. 2 5, page 3) goes blank and the “POWER” LED (fig. 2 2, page 3) flashes orange. In “HIGH” mode, the battery monitor responds faster than at the levels “LOW” and “MED” (see the following table). This is how to select the battery monitor mode: ➤ Switch on the cooler. ➤ Press the “SET” button (fig. 2 4, page 3) three times. ➤ Use the “+” (fig. 2 6, page 3) and “–” (fig. 2 7, page 3) buttons to select the battery monitor mode. ✓ The selected mode then appears in the display for a few seconds. The display flashes several times before it returns to the current temperature.
