• Operate the unit only with the cord provided. Store the cord inside the unit
to prevent misplacing it.

• Do not hold the plug with wet or moist hands.

• Unplug unit before starting the vehicle, then re-plug in the appliance after
the vehicle is running as the voltage surge could damage the unit.

• Switch off the unit and wait for 30 minutes before switching from cool to
heat mode or vice versa.

• Do not use in poorly ventilated areas. Excessive heat needs to be
discharged and fresh air brought in. Good ventilation is essential to avoid
overheating. The internal fuse may be damaged and lose its power if used
in badly ventilated places. Do not cover the vents.

• Do not place in a sealed car or in a trunk. Never obstruct the air flow.
Never use the appliance in closed rooms without a supply of fresh air.

bus. Use an adaptor when used in a lorry or bus. Use an extension cord if it
is too short (10A or above, available at car accessory shops)

• Do not put any foreign objects into the fans during operation. Avoid using
on grassy areas since grass may enter the fan.

• Pay special attention to the batteries when in use. Pull the plug from the
power source after use. The power source may still run depending on the
overheating of the batteries.

• Do not immerse the appliance or the 12V adaptor in water.

• Do not put ice or ice packs in the cooler.

• The appliance is suitable for camping use, but not when exposed to rain.

• In heating mode metal parts inside the unit become very hot. Do not touch
the metal parts if the unit is being/was operated in heating mode.
