• Food may only be stored in its original packaging or in suitable containers.

Safety instructions P40, W40

• The cooling device is not suitable for transporting caustic materials or materials containing solvents.
  ● Only connect the device as follows:

• With the DC cable (fig. 1 2, page 3) to a DC plug socket in the vehicle (e.g. cigarette lighter)

• Or with the 230 V connection cable (fig. 1 3, page 3) to the 230 V AC mains supply

● Never pull the plug out of the socket by the cable.
- If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced with the cable of the same type and specifications.
- Disconnect the device from the mains.

– Before cleaning and maintenance

- After use

• If the cooler is connected to the DC socket: disconnect the cooler or switch it off when you turn off the engine. Otherwise you may discharge the battery.
• On boats: if the device is powered by the mains, ensure that the power supply has a ground fault interrupter circuit. Danger of fatal injuries!
• Disconnect the cooling device and other power consuming devices from the battery before connecting the quick charging device.
• Check that the voltage specification on the type plate corresponds to that of the energy supply.

1.2 Operating the device safely

• Before starting the device, ensure that the power supply line and the plug are dry.
• Do not place the device near naked flames or other heat sources (heaters, direct sunlight, gas ovens etc.).
  ● Caution! Danger of overheating!

Ensure at all times that there is sufficient ventilation so that the heat that arises during operation does not build up. Make sure that the device is sufficiently far away from walls and other objects so that the air can circulate.

• Do not fill the inner container with ice or fluid.
  ● Never immerse the device in water.
• Protect the device and the cable against heat and moisture.

P40, W40 Intended use

• A few water drops may form inside the cooler if it has been cooling for a lengthy period. This is normal because the moisture in the air condenses to water when the temperature in the cooler falls. The cooler is not defective. Wipe it out with a dry cloth if necessary.
• Do not touch exposed cables with your bare hands. This especially applies when operating the device with an AC mains power supply. Danger of fatal injuries!

P40, W40 Troubleshooting

7 Troubleshooting

Problem Possible cause Suggested remedy

Your device is not working (plug is inserted).	There is no voltage flowing from the DC socket (cigarette lighter) in your vehicle.	The ignition must be switched on in most vehicles to supply current to the cigarette lighter.
	No voltage present in the AC voltage socket.	Try using another plug socket.
	The inner fan or the cooling element is defective.	This can only be repaired by an authorised repair centre.
When operating from the DC socket (cigarette lighter): The ignition is on and the cooler is not working.	The fuse of the DC plug is dirty. This results in a poor electrical contact.	If the plug of your cooler becomes very warm in the DC socket fitting, either the fitting must be cleaned or the plug has not been assembled correctly.
	The fuse of the DC plug has blown.	Replace the fuse of the DC plug with one of the same rating.
	The vehicle fuse has blown.	Replace the vehicle's DC socket fuse (usually 15 A). Please refer to the operating manual of your vehicle.

8 Disposal

▶Place the packaging material in the appropriate recycling waste bins wherever possible.

If you wish to finally dispose of the product, ask your local recycling centre or specialist dealer for details about how to do this in accordance with the applicable disposal regulations.
