Technical description

The cooling box is suitable for mobile use. It can cool goods up to max. 30 °C (86 °F)
under ambient temperature (thermostatic switch-off with approx. 0 °C (32 °F)) or
keep them cool or warm them up to max. 65 °C (149 °F) or keep them warm.
If the device has reached the set temperature range, then it will automatically switch
over to the energy save mode. In this mode only the energy is consumed which is
required to reach the temperature inside the box.
The cooling is a wear-free thermo-electric cooler with heat removal through a
ventilator.
The cooling box is equipped with an automatic priority circuit. Thus it is ensured
that with simultaneous connection to the alternating current circuit and to a
12/24 V-battery, the alternating current circuit will be used.

NOTE
Before you put the new refrigerator into operation, you should clean it
inside and outside with a damp cloth for hygienic reasons (see also
chapter "Cleaning and servicing" on page 12).
6.1 Tips to save energy
I
NOTE
A ventilator in the interior space of the cooling box provides for the
circulation of the cold air within the box. Thus a better cooling capacity
will be achieved. In order that the cold air cannot reach the outside
when opening the cooling box, this is equipped with a switch which
turns off the ventilator as soon as the lid is opened.
• Choose a well ventilated installation location which is protected against direct
sunlight.
• 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.
