1. You can operate the appliance with the AC power cord at 100 - 240 V~/50 -

60 Hz or alternatively with the 12 V DC power cord at 12 V~ DC/24 V.

2. When connected to a 12 V outlet, the appliance will not operate at voltages

3. When connected to a 24 V power outlet, the appliance will not operate if the

voltage is less than 21.3 V.

4. Plug one end of the power cord into the socket on the appliance and the

other end into the electrical outlet. Make sure that you are using the correct power cord.

5. Switch on the appliance via the ON/OFF button.

6. After the appliance is switched on, you can select the temperature from

-18 °C to +20 °C. The temperature can be selected from -18 °C to +20 °C. Press the + and - buttons until the desired temperature appears on the dis- play.

7. The display shows the current internal temperature of the appliance until

the selected temperature is reached. The compressor switches on and off alternately. Copyright UNOLD AG | www.unold.de32 von 116 Stand 11.1.2021

8. Open the lid and place the food or drink to be cooled in the box.

9. If you no longer need the appliance, switch it off via the ON/OFF button and

unplug the connection cable from the electrical outlet. Battery protection mode

10. The appliance has three battery protection functions that protect the appli-

ance itself and the vehicle battery. If the appliance is operated in the vehicle with the ignition switched off, the appliance switches off as soon as the vol- tage drops below the set value. When the voltage is reached again by char- ging the battery, the appliance switches on again. This prevents the vehicle battery from depth discharging.

11. Press the SET button for 3 seconds to access the advanced settings.

12. The three protection functions are H3 (high), H2 (medium) and H1 (low).

Briefly press the + or - button to select the function. The appliance is set to H2 in the factory. This is the correct setting when the appliance is operated with alternating current.

13. Voltage parameters as follows:

H3 (high): 10.9 V (Stop) - 12.2 V (Start) / 23.8 V (Stop) - 25.2 V (Start) H2 (medium): 9.7 V (Stop) - 11.0 V (Start) / 21.5 V (Stop) - 22.9 V (Start) H1 (low): 9.6 V (Stop) - 10.9 V (Start) / 21.3 V (Stop) - 2.7 V (Start)

14. Note: If you use the appliance in a vehicle, we recommend setting it on H2.

If the appliance is connected to an external power supply or a backup bat- tery, set H2 or H1.

15. Vehicle batteries have different output voltages. If there is a voltage fault

(F1 is shown in the display), a low function (H2 or H1) should be set.

16. If the performance of the vehicle battery decreases, set H1 to prevent the

vehicle battery from being completely discharged during operation of the appliance. ECO or rapid cooling function

17. Press the SET button again briefly to select between ECO mode (energy

saving) or HH mode (rapid cooling function). Use the + and - buttons to switch between the two settings. The quick cooling function is set at the factory. Copyright UNOLD AG | www.unold.deStand 11.1.2021 33 von 116

18. If you press the SET button again, you can switch between the temperature

display in Fahrenheit or Celsius. Use the + and - buttons to switch between the two settings.

19. Note: After 10 seconds without button input, the appliance exits the advan-

ced settings. If you want to make additional settings, press the SET button again for at least 3 seconds. The settings made are also saved when the appliance is switched off.

DEFROSTING Before cleaning, always turn off the appliance and unplug it from the elec- trical outlet.

1. Never immerse the appliance in water or other liquids.

2. Do not use scratching sponges, abrasive cleaners, steel wool, metallic

objects, hot detergents or disinfectants, as these items can cause damage.

3. Wipe-off the inside and outside of the appliance with a damp cloth. Dry

thoroughly afterwards. Before defrosting, always switch off the appliance and remove the plug from the electrical outlet.

1. Regular defrosting helps to save energy, since evaporated water freezes on

the inside walls of the appliance and thus reduces the cooling capacity.

2. Switch off the appliance and disconnect it from the mains supply.

3. Open the lid and remove the refrigerated and frozen items (place in another

refrigerator or freezer if necessary).

4. Wait until the ice has melted and then remove it with a clean cloth.

SOLVING PROBLEMS Problem Possible cause Solution The appliance does not work, indicator lights are off No power supply Insufficient power supply AC power cord 12 V DC power cord Check all connections and power cord connections. Connect the appliance to another electrical outlet. Check the earth leakage circuit breaker. Connect another suitable power cord. Connect another suitable power cord or connect the appliance to another 12 V connection. Noise development The appliance is not standing on a level surface Note: A certain amount of noise is normal. If the appliance is at an angle, place it on a flat surface. Loud, metallic knocking or beeping Device has been excessively tilted Compressor is defective Switch off and leave on a level surface for 24 hours, then switch it on. Contact customer service. Appliance runs for a short time and then trips the earth leakage circuit breaker The power outlet does not provide the required voltage Have the electrical outlet checked by a specialist.

5. Note: Do not use sharp or pointed objects such as knives to remove ice

faster. The inner walls of the appliance can be damaged if sharp or pointed objects are used to remove ice.

6. When the appliance is completely dry, you can use it again as usual.
