CAUTIONS:
• The unit takes about 2 hours to reach its maximum cool temperature (approx.
40°F below ambient temperature). It is recommended that items to be placed
in the unit be pre-chilled. This will assist the unit in reaching the lowest
temperature as quickly as possible
• The unit will continue to operate as long as the vehicle's battery
provides power
• If the vehicle engine is turned off, the unit will continue to draw power (a
nominal 3.6 amps or 44 watts) from the vehicle battery
• If the engine is switched off for a long period (overnight) it is important
to disconnect the unit from the accessory outlet to avoid draining the
vehicle’s battery
WARNINGS:
• Food will stay cool for some time after the unit is disconnected or turned off,
but temperature will rise to that of the surrounding air
• Observe common sense hygiene rules, as with any cooling unit. Do not
eat or drink perishable items that may have spoiled or become
contaminated from lack of proper temperature control
