Do not leave the cooling device open for longer than necessary.
If the cooler has a basket: For optimal energy consumption, position the
basket according to its position on delivery.
On a regular basis, make sure the lid seal still fits properly.
6.3 Connecting the cooling device
The cooling device can be operated with DC or AC voltage.
A
For safety reasons the cooling device is equipped with an electronic system
to prevent the polarity reversal. This protects the cooling device against short-
circuiting when connecting to a battery.
1. Plug the DC connection cable into the DC socket and connect it to a DC
power socket.
2. Plug the AC connection cable into the AC voltage socket and connect it to
an AC mains.
3. Close the covers of the sockets not in use to prevent accidentally touch-
ing the sockets. This also prevents dust, water and dirt from entering the
socket.
NOTICE! Damage hazard
Disconnect the cooling device and other consumer units from the
vehicle battery before you connect the vehicle battery to a quick
charging device.
Overvoltage can damage the electronics of the cooling device.

EN
Operation MCF32, MCF40, MCF60, FR40 AC/DC

6.4 Using the battery monitor
The cooling device is equipped with a multi-level battery monitor that protects
your vehicle battery against excessive discharging when the cooling device is
connected to the DC power supply.
If the cooling device is operated when the vehicle ignition is switched off, the
cooling device switches off automatically as soon as the supply voltage falls
below a set level. The cooling device will switch back on once the vehicle
battery has been recharged to the restart voltage level.
A
In “HIGH” mode, the battery monitor responds faster than at the levels “LOW”
and “MED” (see the following table).
Proceed as follows to select the battery monitor mode:
1. Switch on the cooling device.
2. Press the “SET” button three times.
3. Use the “+” and “–” buttons to select the battery monitor mode.
✔The selected mode then appears in the display for a few seconds. The dis-
play flashes several times before it returns to the current temperature.
I
NOTICE! Damage hazard
When switched off by the battery monitor, the vehicle battery will
no longer be fully charged. Avoid starting repeatedly or operating
current consumers without longer charging phases. Ensure that the
vehicle battery is recharged.
Battery monitor mode LOW MED HIGH
Switch-off voltage at 12 V 10.1 V 11.4 V 11.8 V

Restart voltage at 24 V 23.0 V 25.3 V 26.2 V
NOTE
When the cooling device is supplied by the vehicle battery, select
the battery monitor mode “HIGH”. If the cooling device is con-
nected to a supply battery, the battery monitor mode “LOW” will
suffice.

To avoid food waste, note the following:
Keep temperature fluctuation as low as possible. Only open the cooling
device as often and for as long as necessary. Store the foodstuff in such a
way that the air can still circulate well.
Adjust the temperature to the quantity and type of the foodstuff.
Foodstuff can easily absorb or release odor or taste. Always store food-
stuff covered or in closed containers/bottles.
6.6 Latching the cooling device lid
1. Lift the latch (fig. 11, page 3) and close the lid.
NOTICE! Damage hazard
Place the cooling device as shown (fig. 1, page 3). If you operate
the cooling device in a different position it can be damaged.
NOTICE! Hazard from excessively low temperature
Ensure that only those objects are placed in the cooling device
that are intended to be cooled at the selected temperature.
NOTE
The temperature displayed is that of the middle of the interior.
The temperatures elsewhere can deviate from this temperature.
NOTE
When operating with the battery, the display switches off auto-
matically if the battery voltage is low. The LED “POWER” flashes
orange.

2. Release the latch.
✔The latch audibly clicks in place and secures the cooling device lid.
6.7 Setting the temperature
1. Press the “SET” button once.
2. Use the “+” and “–” buttons to select the cooling temperature.
✔The cooling temperature appears in the display for a few seconds. The
display flashes several times and then the current temperature is
displayed again.
6.8 Switching off the cooling device
1. Empty the cooling device.
2. Switch the cooling device off.
3. Pull out the connection cable.
If you do not want to use the cooling device for a longer period of time:
➤Leave the lid slightly open. This prevents odour build-up.
6.9 Using the interior light (only MCF60)
1. Ensure the display shows the actual temperature.
2. Press the “–” button to switch the interior light on.
3. Press the “–” button again to switch the interior light off.
✔The black dot (fig. 28, page 3) in the upper left corner of the display indi-
cates whether the interior light is switched on or off.
I
6.10 Defrosting the cooling device
Humidity can form frost in the interior of the cooling device or on the evapora-
tor. This reduces the cooling capacity. Defrost the cooling device in good time
to avoid this.
NOTE
The interior light switches off automatically after 30 minutes.

EN
MCF32, MCF40, MCF60, FR40 AC/DC Cleaning and maintenance
17
A
To defrost the cooling device, proceed as follows:
1. Take out the contents of the cooling device.
2. If necessary, place them in another cooling device to keep them cool.
3. Switch off the cooling device.
4. Leave the lid open.
5. Wipe off the defrosted water.
6.11 Replacing the fuse
➤Replace the fuse (8 A 32 V) as shown (fig. 4, page 4).
7 Cleaning and maintenance
A
➤Occasionally clean the cooling device interior and exterior with a damp
cloth.
➤Make sure that the air inlet and outlet vents on the device are free of any
dust and dirt, so that heat can be released and the device is not damaged.

9 Troubleshooting
Fault Possible cause Suggested remedy
The cooling device
does not function,
“POWER” LED does not
glow.
There is no voltage
present in the DC power
socket in your vehicle.
The ignition must be switched on in most
vehicles to apply current to the DC power
socket.
The cooling device
does not cool (plug is
inserted, “POWER” LED
is lit).
Defective compressor. This can only be repaired by an
authorized customer services unit.
The cooling device
does not cool (plug is
inserted, “POWER” LED
flashes orange, dis-
play is switched off).
Voltage of the vehicle
battery is too low.
Test the vehicle battery and charge it as
needed.
When operating from
the DC power socket:
The ignition is on and
the cooling device is
not working and the
“POWER” LED is not lit.
The DC power socket is
dirty. This results in a
poor electrical contact.
If the plug of your cooling device
becomes very warm in the DC power
socket, either the DC power socket must
be cleaned or the plug has not been
assembled correctly.
The fuse of the DC plug
has blown.
Replace the fuse (8 A) in the DC plug, see
chapter “Replacing the fuse” on page 17.
The vehicle fuse has
blown.
Replace the vehicle’s DC power socket
fuse (usually 15 A). Please refer to your
vehicle’s operating manual.
The display shows an
error message (e.g.
“Err1”) and the cooling
device does not cool.
The cooling device has
switched off due to an
internal fault.
This can only be repaired by an
authorized repair center.
