   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 opera-
tion 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 cool-
box 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

Due to the materials used, the inside of the cool box 
may emit an odour typical for the product prior to 
first use. This odour is harmless, but for reasons of 
hygiene we do recommend wiping the inside and 
outside of the cool box with a damp cloth (also see 
chapter „Cleaning and Care“) prior to first use. Fur-
ther, do not store unpackaged foods 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 

1

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 im-
mediately.

-

In 12 V operation = the cool box starts working 
immediately.

-

In 230 V operation = switch on the cool box 
using the cooling efficiency switch 

3

 at the 

front.

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 tempera-
ture) of approx. 8 - 11 °C. The energy consumption 
corresponds with this to the A++ energy class.
Since the inside temperature of a coolbox is influ-
enced 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 

3

:

   Turn the cooling output switch 

3

 clockwise in 

the direction of “MAX”. This gives you a lower 
(colder) inside temperature value.

   Turn the cooling output switch 

3

 anti-clock-

wise in the direction of “OFF”. This gives you a 
higher (warmer) inside temperature value.

   Turn the cooling output switch 

3

 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
