CAUTIONS:
• The cooler takes about 120 minutes to reach its maximum cool temperature
depending on the outside surrounding temperature. It is recommended
that items to be placed in the cooler be pre-chilled. This will assist the cool-
er in reaching the lowest temperature as quickly as possible.
• The cooler will continue to operate as long as the vehicle battery
provides power.
• If the vehicle engine is turned off, the cooler will continue to draw power
(a nominal 4-amps or 48-watts) from the vehicle battery.
• If the engine is switched off for a long period (overnight) it is important
to disconnect the cooler from the accessory outlet to avoid draining the
vehicle's battery.
WARNINGS:
• Food will stay cool for some time after the unit is disconnected or turned
off, but temperature will rise to that of the surrounding air.
• Observe common sense hygiene rules, as with any cooling unit.
Do not eat or drink perishable items that may have spoiled or become
contaminated without proper temperature control.
