Possible cause
There is no voltage
present in the DC
power socket in your
vehicle.
The DC power socket
is dirty. This results in a
poor electrical con-
tact.
The fuse of the con-
necting cable is burnt
through.
The vehicle fuse is
burnt through.
The ventilator motor is
defective.
The ventilator motor
for the inner ventilator
is defective.
The thermo-electric
element is defective.
The integrated power
unit is defective.
Suggestion
The ignition must be switched on in most
vehicles to apply current to the DC power
socket.
Clean the socket of the DC power socket
with a non-metallic brush and a solvent,
so that the middle contact pin is clean.
If the plug of your cooling device
becomes very warm in the DC power
socket, either the DC power socket must
be cleaned or the plug has not been
assembled correctly.
Replace the fuse (fig. 6 1, page 4) of the
DC plug with one of the same rating.
Replace the vehicle fuse of the DC power
socket (usually 15 A). (Observe the oper-
ating instructions in your motorcar for
this).
The repair can be executed only by an
authorized customer service.
