7.3Connecting the cooler
Connecting to a battery
The cooler can be operated with 12 V
NOTICE! Danger of damage!
A
For safety reasons the cooler is equipped with an electronic system to prevent
polarity reversal. This protects the cooler against short-circuiting when connecting to
a battery.
Using supplied DC connection cable
A
➤ Before starting up the device for the first time, check whether the operating
voltage and the battery voltage correspond (see type plate).
➤ Plug the DC connection cable (fig. 1 2, page 3) into the DC voltage socket of
the cooler (fig. 4 5, page 4).
➤ Connect the red cable to the positive (+) battery terminal (fig. 8, page 6).
➤ Connect the black cable to the negative (–) battery terminal (fig. 8, page 6).
Disconnect the cooler and other consumer units from the battery before
you connect the battery to a quick charging device.
Overvoltage can damage the electronics of the device.
NOTICE! Danger of damage!
For protection of the device the DC cable supplied is fitted with a fuse.
Do not remove the fuse.

To extend the DC hard-wiring, proceed as follows:
To avoid drops in voltage and therefore performance, keep the cable as
short as possible and only disconnect it when necessary.
For this reason avoid additional switches, plugs or power strips.

Only use the DC cable supplied from the cooler to in-vehicle
connection point.
• Make sure that the polarity is correct.
➤ Before starting up the device for the first time, check whether the operating
voltage and the battery voltage correspond (see type plate).
➤ Run the extended wiring from DC cable in-vehicle connection point
(fig. 0 4, page 7) to the battery (fig. 0 6, page 7).
➤ Make sure that the cable to the positive (+) battery terminal is protected with an
additional 15 A fuse (fig. 0 5, page 7) close to the battery. Do not remove the
fuse of the supplied DC cable.
➤ Connect the supplied DC connection cable (fig. 0 2, page 7) to the in-vehicle

I
The coolers have an integrated multi-voltage power supply with priority circuit for
connecting to an AC voltage source. The priority circuit automatically switches the
cooler to AC operation if the device is connected to an AC power supply, even if the
DC connection cable is still attached.
When switching between the AC power supply and the DC battery supply, the red
LED may light up briefly.
➤ Plug the AC connection cable (fig. 1 3, page 3) into the AC voltage socket of
the cooler (fig. 4 1, page 4).
• Never handle plugs and switches with wet hands or if you are
standing on a wet surface.
• If you are operating your cooler on board a boat from a AC power
supply, you must install a residual current circuit breaker between the
AC power supply and the cooler.
Seek advice from a trained technician.
NOTE
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, the
manufacturer strongly recommends against the use of an extension
cord.
➤ Connect the connection cable to the AC power outlet.

7.4Using the battery monitor
The device is equipped with a multi-level battery monitor that protects your vehicle
battery against excessive discharging when the device is connected to the on-board
DC supply.
If the cooler is operated when the vehicle ignition is switched off, the cooler switches
off automatically as soon as the supply voltage falls below a set level. The cooler will
switch back on once the battery has been recharged to the restart voltage level.
NOTICE! Danger of damage!
A
In “HIGH” mode, the battery monitor responds faster than at the levels “LOW” and
“MED” (see the following table).
Battery monitor modeLOWMEDHIGH
When switched off by the battery monitor, the battery will no longer be
fully charged. Avoid starting repeatedly or operating current consumers
without longer charging phases. Ensure that the battery is recharged.
Switch-off voltage at 12 V
Restart-voltage at 12 V
Switch-off voltage at 24 V
Restart voltage at 24 V
The battery monitor mode can be selected as follows:
➤ Switch on the cooler.
➤ Press the “SET” button (fig. 3 4, page 3) three times.
➤ Use the “UP +” (fig. 3 7, page 3) or “DOWN –” (fig. 3 6, page 3) buttons to
select the battery monitor mode.
✓ Display will be as follows:
Lo (LOW), Πd (MED), Hi (HIGH)
✓ The selected mode then appears in the display for a few seconds. The display
flashes several times before it returns to the current temperature.
NOTE
I
When the cooler is supplied by the starter battery, select the battery
monitor mode “HIGH”. If the cooler is connected to a supply battery,
the battery monitor mode “LOW” will suffice.
