The appliance may also be used for camping use. The appliance shall not to be exposed to rain. It can be used as a box or cupboard.

NOTE The seatbelt can be fed through the lugs on the cooler to fasten it to the car seat (see fig. 4, page 4). CAUTION! Health hazard! Please check if the cooling capacity of the device is suitable for storing the food or medicine you wish to cool. AS25-O-16s.book Seite 9 Montag, 7. November 2016 11:47 11EN Technical description BordBar AS25

5 Technical description The cooler is suitable for mobile use. It can cool goods to max. 18 °C under the ambient temperature or keep them cool. Its cooling system is a non-wearing Peltier cooling, the heat is discharged by a fan. When the cooler is connected to a 230 V AC mains supply, it can be used in two different operating modes:

• ECO mode: the cooler consumes less energy

• MAX mode: the cooler reaches maximum cooling capacity The desired cooling capacity is selected with the cooling capacity control: ➤ To increase the cooling capacity, turn the cooling capacity control clockwise. For the maximum cooling capacity turn the cooling capacity control clockwise all the way to the stop (max position). ➤ To decrease the cooling capacity, turn the cooling capacity control counterclockwise. To turn off the cooler, turn the cooling capacity control counterclockwise all the way to the stop (off position). When the cooler is connected to the DC socket, the cooling capacity cannot be adjusted. In this case the cooler cools maximal. Pockets on the outside provide additional storage space. Note that objects stored in them are not cooled.

5.1 Description of the device

• Choose a well ventilated installation location which is protected against direct sunlight.

• If you want to set an increased energy efficiency and a limited cooling capacity for the cooler device, use the device’s ECO mode.

• Allow warm food to cool down first before placing it in the cooling device to keep cool.

• Do not open the cooling device more often than necessary.

• Do not leave the cooling device open for longer than necessary. CAUTION! Food may only be stored in its original packaging or in suitable containers. NOTICE!

• Ensure that the objects placed in the cooler are suitable for cooling to the selected temperature.

• Ensure that food or liquids in glass containers are not excessively refrigerated. Liquids expand when they freeze and can therefore destroy glass containers.

• Ensure that your cooler is well ventilated so that any heat created can dissipate. Otherwise proper functioning cannot be ensured. It is especially important not to cover the air vents.

• Risk of spillage. Lift the cooler by the handle, not by the shoulder strap. NOTE

• Before starting your new cooling device for the first time, you should clean it inside and outside with a damp cloth for hygienic reasons (please also refer to the chapter “Cleaning and maintenance” on page 13).

• If the handle is folded back of if the cooler is being carried, the lid is locked. You can only open the lid when the handle is folded for- wards. AS25-O-16s.book Seite 11 Montag, 7. November 2016 11:47 11EN Operation BordBar AS25

9 Troubleshooting 10 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. Fault Possible cause Suggested remedyYour cooler does not work (plug is inserted).There is no voltage flowing from the 12 V socket (cigarette lighter) in your vehicle.The ignition must be switched on in most vehicles for voltage to flow at the cigarette lighter.No voltage present at the AC voltage socket.Try using another plug socket.The cooler does not cool (plug is inserted).The inner fan or the cooling element is defective.This can only be repaired by an authorised customer services unit.Operation with a 12 V socket (cigarette lighter):The ignition is on and the cooler is not working.Pull the plug out of the socket and make the following checks.The cigarette lighter socket is dirty. This results in a poor elec-trical contact.If the plug of your cooler becomes very warm in the cigarette lighter socket, either the socket must be cleaned or the plug has not been assembled correctly.The fuse of the 12 V plug has blown.Replace the fuse (5 A) in the 12 V plug (fig. 3 1, page 3). The vehicle fuse has blown.Replace the vehicle's 12 V socket fuse (usually 15 A). (Please refer to the operating manual of your vehicle.) AS25-O-16s.book Seite 14 Montag, 7.
