■ Only connect the appliance as follows:

- either with the 230 V connection cable, supplied with the appliance, to a 230 V power supply (domestic socket)

- or with the 12 V connection cable, supplied with the appliance, to a 12V---power supply (cigarette lighter in car or other 12 V connection)

■ Only allow qualified personnel to carry out repairs. Unsatisfactory repairs can lead to considerable danger for the user.
■ Never pull the plug by the connection cable out of the 12 V or 230 V socket. If you do, there is risk of damage to the connection cable.
- Do not operate the appliance with both power sources connected at the same time. If you do, there is a risk of damage to the product.

Safety while operating the appliance

CAUTION! RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK! Before putting the appliance into operation, ensure that the connection cable and plug are dry.

CAUTION! RISK OF FIRE! Never place the appliance in direct proximity to naked flames or other sources of heat.
CAUTION! RISK OF OVERHEATING! Ensure that the ventilation slits on the top of the lid of the appliance are not covered and that the heat, which arises during operation, can be dissipated adequately. Ensure that the appliance is situated at an adequate distance from walls or objects, so that the air can circulate freely.

■ Protect the appliance and the connection cable from heat, rain and moisture, as well as from other sources of damage. Damaged appliances represent a danger of death from electric shock!
- Do not fill any liquids or place any ice directly into the inside of the appliance. If you do, this could result in damage to the product.
- Never immerse the appliance in water. If you do, this could result in damage to the electrics.
- When travelling by car, do not transport the appliance in the passenger compartment.
- When operating with 12 V, always ensure that the 12 V plug is located firmly and safely in the connection socket of the cigarette lighter and that the connection socket is free of dirt. If the contact between plug and socket is inadequate, vibration from the car can cause the power supply to switch on and off in short bursts. This can result in overheating.
The manufacturer has no liability for damage which is caused by improper use or incorrect operation.

● General information on use

The coolbox is not suitable for continuous operation. Ice can form on the aluminium cooling plate. We recommend that the coolbox is switched off after it has been in operation for 6 days. The coolbox can be put back into operation after 2 hours.
- Dry the surfaces of your coolbox contents so that a build-up of condensation is avoided.
If the coolbox is not being used, keep the connection cables in the storage compartment provided in the lid of the coolbox.
- When operating with a 12 V power source, be careful not to switch the car engine on and off frequently, so that the power supply to the coolbox is not interrupted constantly. Also be aware that the car battery can be run down too far, if the engine is switched off.
In order to prevent freezing of the coolbox contents when operating with 12 V, the coolbox should not be operated below 18 °C outside temperature.

Operation

Before putting the coolbox into operation, we recommend for reasons of hygiene that it is washed inside and outside with a damp cloth (see also chapter on "Cleaning and Care"). Moreover don't keep any unpackaged food in it.

Place the coolbox on a firm and level surface. The connection cables are fixed to the coolbox and can be found in the cable compartment or compartments in the rear of the lid or in the side of the lid.
☐ Depending on the choice of power source required, connect either the 12 V or the 230 V connection cable to the socket of the power source selected. The coolbox starts to work immediately.

● Function with 230 V operation

With 230 volt in normal operation the coolbox always operates in 'eco mode' (without 'boost function') with a very high level of energy saving and it guarantees - at an ambient temperature between 16 °C and 32 °C (climate class N) - a controlled inside temperature in the coolbox of between 8 °C and 14 °C. In this way the unintended freezing of the coolbox contents is prevented.

In 'eco mode' the inside temperature is maintained automatically at between 8 °C and 14 °C. The energy consumption is optimised through constant adjustment of the power supply to the particular outside temperature. This

Operation/Tips for the best cooling .../Exchanging the 12V fuse/Possible malfunctions/Cleaning and care/Warranty

avoids temperature control by means of the constant on / off switching of traditional refrigeration technology, which causes a high level of material wear.

If you wish to achieve a colder inside temperature in the coolbox, briefly press the 'boost switch' (the blue LED lights up if the the 'boost function' is switched on). By doing this, you exit the 'eco function' (normal operation) and the power supply is automatically switched to the maximum cooling output. Since with thermoelectric coolboxes the refrigeration temperature is always dependent on the ambient temperature around the coolbox, the cooling unit always produces an inside temperature when the 'boost function' is switched on, which is up to 18 °C lower than the particular outside temperature of the coolbox (example: outside temperature 24 °C = inside temperature approx. 6 °C). Please be aware that - during the 'boost function' - freezing of the coolbox contents can occur at low outside temperatures.

The 'boost function' is set at the factory in such a way that after 24 hours operation it automatically switches to the power-saving normal operation (= automatic inside temperature between 8^ and 14^ ). To switch the 'boost function' off earlier, press the 'boost switch' again (the blue LED goes out).

● Function with 12 V operation

Please note:

When the coolbox is operating with a 12 V power supply, the cooling unit always produces a temperature difference from the ambient temperature of up to 18 °C. The 'boost switch' only functions in 230 volt operation; with 12 volt operation the 'boost switch' does not display any function!

● Tips for the best cooling output and energy saving

☐ Select a well ventilated location protected from sunshine.
☐ Only place pre-cooled contents into the coolbox.
☐ 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 (no 'boost function') is recommended for longer periods of use in 230V operation.

● Exchanging the 12 V fuse

To exchange the fuse 6, first remove the red adapter 3 from the plug.
□ Unscrew the screw 1 with a suitable Phillips screwdriver from the top half of the housing 2
☐ Lift the top half of the housing from the bottom half 5. Note: Hold the contact spring tightly 4 while you remove the fuse. Otherwise the contact spring can jump out.
☐ Lift the contact pin 7 carefully out of the housing section. The fuse can now be removed.

Note: if the thin metal connection in the middle between the two metal caps is broken, then the fuse is defective and must be replaced.

☐ Press the contact spring backwards and insert the new fuse carefully into the groove provided for it. Now place the rear edge of the contact pin on the front metal cap of the fuse. By releasing the contact spring, the fuse and contact pin are located in the groove.
☐ Screw the top and bottom halves of the housing together again, place the red adapter 3 back on and tighten this again. The plug is now ready for operation.

●Possiblemalfunctions

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?

If you can not rectify the malfunction on your own, please contact our Customer Service (see chapter on "Service centre").

- Cleaning and care

• Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents. If you do, there is a risk of damage to the product.
  Before any cleaning, pull the plug of the connection cable out of the socket or of the cigarette lighter. Otherwise there is a risk of electric shock.
  ■ Never clean the coolbox under running water. If you do, this could result in damage to the electrics.
  Before cleaning, remove the electrical lid by pulling it out at a slight angle from the right rear recess.
  ☐ Use a dry cloth for cleaning the electrical lid.
  ☐ Use a damp cloth and a mild soap solution for cleaning the bottom section of the coolbox.
  ☐ Use clean water to rinse off those parts cleaned with soapy water.
