CF18, CF25, CF35, CF40, CF 50 Safety instructions

• Only connect the device as follows:

– With the DC cable to a DC plug socket in the vehicle (e. g.

cigarette lighter)

– Or with the AC connection cable to the AC mains supply

• Never pull the plug out of the socket by the cable.

• If the cooler is connected to the DC socket: Disconnect the cooler and

other power consuming devices from the battery before connecting the quick charging device.

• If the cooler is connected to the DC socket: Disconnect the cooler or

switch it off when you turn off the engine. Otherwise you may discharge the battery.

• The cooling device is not suitable for transporting caustic materials or

materials containing solvents.

• The cooling device contains inflammable cyclopentane in the

insulation. The gases in the insulation material require special disposal procedures. Deliver the device at the end of its life-cycle to an appropriate recycling.

2.2 Operating the device safely

CAUTION!

• Before starting the device, ensure that the power supply line and the

plug are dry.

NOTICE!

• Do not use electrical devices inside the cooler unless they are

recommended by the manufacturer for the purpose.

• Do not place the device near naked flames or other heat sources

(heaters, direct sunlight, gas ovens etc.).

• Danger of overheating!

Ensure at all times that there is sufficient ventilation so that the heat that arises during operation does not build up. Make sure that the device is sufficiently far away from walls and other objects so that the air can circulate.

5 Intended use

The cooler is suitable for cooling and freezing foods.

The cooler is designed to be operated from:

• a DC on-board power supply of a vehicle, boat or caravan

• a DC auxiliary battery

• an AC power supply (CF35, CF40, CF50)

For operating CF 18, CF25 at AC mains you need an AC/DC power supply rectifier (accessory).

CAUTION! Health hazard!

Please check if the cooling capacity of the device is suitable for storing the food or medicine you wish to cool.

6 Function description

The cooler can refrigerate or freeze food products. A fast-acting and efficient cooling system provides low maintenance cooling performance with a compressor and control module.

The cooler is designed for mobile use and can be carried by using a folding carrying bracket (CF18), two recessed grips (CF25) or two removable carrying handles (CF35, CF40, CF50).

The cooler can withstand a short-term inclination of 30°, for example on boats.
