Before putting the appliance into operation, ensure that the connection cable and plug are dry.
CAUTION! RISK OF FIRE! Never place the
appliance in direct proximity to naked flames
or other sources of heat.
CAUTION! RISK OF OVERHEATING! En-
sure that the ventilation slits on the top of the
lid of the appliance are not covered and that
the heat, which arises during operation, can be
dissipated adequately. Ensure that the appliance is situated at an adequate distance from
walls or objects, so that the air can circulate
freely.
Protect the appliance and the connection cable
from heat, rain and moisture, as well as from
other sources of damage. Damaged appliances
represent a danger of death from electric shock!

appliance in the passenger compartment.
When operating with 12 V, always ensure that
the 12 V plug is located firmly and safely in the
connection socket of the cigarette lighter and
that the connection socket is free of dirt. If the
contact between plug and socket is inadequate,
vibration from the car can cause the power
supply to switch on and off in short bursts. This
can result in overheating.
The manufacturer has no liability for damages
which are caused by improper use or incorrect
operation.

General information on use / Operation
General information on use
The coolbox is not suitable for continuous oper-
ation. Ice can form on the aluminium cooling
plate. We recommend that the coolbox is
switched off after it has been in operation for 6
days. The coolbox can be put back into operation after 2 hours.
Dry the surfaces of your coolbox contents so
that a build-up of condensation is avoided.
If the coolbox is not being used, keep the
connection cables in the storage compartment
provided in the lid of the coolbox.
When operating with a 12 V power source, be
careful not to switch the car engine on and off
frequently, so that the power supply to the coolbox is not interrupted constantly. Also be
aware that the car battery can be run down
too far, if the engine is switched off.
The two convex indentations 4 in the inside of
the lid can be used to store standard bottles
with a standing height of max. 42 cm.
In order to prevent freezing of the coolbox
contents when operating with 12 V, the coolbox
should not be operated below 17 °C outside
temperature.
Operation
Before putting the coolbox into operation, we recommend for reasons of hygiene that it is washed inside and outside with a damp cloth (see also
chapter on “Cleaning and Care”). Moreover don’t
keep any unpackaged food in it.
Place the coolbox on a firm and level surface.
The connection cables are fixed to the coolbox
and can be found in the cable compartment in
the rear of the lid.
Depending on the choice of power source
required, connect either the 12 V or the 230 V
connection cable to the socket of the power
source selected. The coolbox starts to work immediately.
Note: the lid can be locked in the opened position
by means of the handle and hook on the inside of
the lid (see fig. A1).
Function with 230 V operation
in “eco mode”
When operating with a 230 V power supply, the
cooling output can be controlled by means of the
cooling output switch
3
on the front of the lid (see
fig. B).
The coolbox operates in normal operation (cooling
output switch in the ‘eco’ position - small dot on the
rotary button facing in the direction of ‘eco’ - see
fig. B) with a very high level of energy saving and
achieves an inside temperature of approx. 14° to
17 °C at an outside temperature of approx. 25 °C.
This corresponds to a Delta T (Delta T = difference
between outside temperature and inside temperature) of approx. 8 - 11 °C. The energy consumption
corresponds with this to the A+ energy class.
Since the inside temperature of a coolbox is influenced by the particular ambient temperature, the
Delta T output in ‘eco mode’ is always 8 - 11 °C at
other outside temperatures. You can control the
inside temperature by turning the cooling output
switch:
Turn the cooling output switch clockwise in the
direction of “MAX”. This gives you a lower
(colder) inside temperature value.
Turn the cooling output switch anti-clockwise in
the direction of “OFF”. This gives you a higher
(warmer) inside temperature value.
Turn the cooling output switch to the “OFF”
position. This turns the coolbox off.
Note: If you want to reach a Delta T (Delta T =
difference between outside temperature and inside
temperature) of up to 17 °C and thereby a lower
inside temperature than is possible in the “eco”
normal operation, turn the cooling output switch to
the “MAX” position. Please note that in this case
more energy will be consumed than in normal
operation.

Operation / Tips for the best cooling ... / Exchanging ... / Possible ... / Cleaning ...
After the operation with 230 V function has been
completed, disconnect the mains plug from the
socket.
Function with 12 V operation
CAUTION! The temperature controller on the
front of the lid is only suited to 230 V operation
and it does not function in 12 V operation.
When operating with a 12 V power supply, the
cooling unit always produces a temperature
difference from the ambient temperature of up
to 17 °C. The cooling output can not be controlled by means of the temperature controller
on the front of the lid.
Tips for the best cooling output
and energy saving
Select a well ventilated location protected from
sunshine.
Only place pre-cooled contents into the cool-
box.
Do not open the coolbox longer than necessary.
Don’t leave the lid open longer than necessary.
Ensure that the coolbox is not packed too
full and that the air can circulate adequately
between the coolbox contents.
In order that a high level of energy saving can
be achieved, normal operation (cooling output
switch
3
in the “eco” position) is recommended for longer periods of use in 230 V
operation.
Exchanging the 12 V fuse
See also fig. C.
To exchange the fuse 10, first remove the red
adapter
7
from the plug.
Unscrew the screw 5 with a suitable Phillips
screwdriver from the top half of the housing
6
.
Lift the top half of the housing from the bottom
half
9
.
Note: Hold the contact spring 8 tightly while
you remove the fuse. Otherwise the contact
spring can jump out.
Lift the contact pin 11 carefully out of the hous-
ing section. The fuse can now be removed.
Note: if the thin metal connection in the middle
between the two metal caps is broken, then the
fuse is defective and must be replaced.
Press the contact spring backwards and insert
the new fuse carefully into the groove provided
for it. Now place the rear edge of the contact
pin on the front metal cap of the fuse. By releasing the contact spring, the fuse and contact
pin are located in the groove.
Screw the top and bottom halves of the housing
together again, place the red adapter
7
back
on and tighten this again. The plug is now
ready for operation.
Possible malfunctions
Firstly check whether you have correctly followed
the instructions for using the coolbox, then also
check:
– Is the connection cable correctly connected
and does your car cigarette lighter / domestic
socket function properly?
– Have you set up the coolbox in such a way
that the air can circulate freely and that venting
of the cooling unit can occur?
– Is the fuse in the plug of the 12 V connection
cable OK?
– Check the position of the cooling output
switch
3
on the front of the lid.
If you can not rectify the malfunction on your own,
please contact our Customer Service (see chapter
on “Service”).
Cleaning and care
Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents. If you
do, there is a risk of damage to the product.
Before any cleaning, pull the plug of the con-
nection cable out of the socket or of the
