6.1 Energy saving tips
•Choose a well ventilated installation location which is protected against direct
sunlight.
•Allow warm food to cool down first before placing it in the cooling device to
keep cool.
•Do not open the cooling device more often than necessary.
•Do not leave the cooling device open for longer than necessary.
6.2 Connecting the cooler to 12 V/24 V
➤Make sure the cable between the cooler and the battery is protected by a fuse
(maximum 5 A).
➤Plug the 12 V/24 V connection cable (fig. 3, page 2) into the DC power outlet
or a 12 V/24 V socket in the vehicle.
➤Press the “ON/OFF” button (fig. 22, page 2)
✓The cooler starts cooling the interior.
I
CAUTION! Health hazard!
Food may only be stored in its original packaging or in suitable
containers.
NOTE
•Before starting your new coolbox for the first time, you should clean
it inside and outside with a damp cloth for hygienic reasons (please
also refer to the chapter “Cleaning and care” on page 10).
•A few water drops may form inside the cooler if it has been cooling
for a lengthy period. This is normal because the moisture in the air
condenses to water when the temperature in the cooler falls. The
cooler is not defective. Wipe it out with a dry cloth if necessary.
NOTE
In most vehicles the ignition must be turned on before power will be
supplied to the DC power outlet.

Operation CK40D DC

6.3 Using the battery monitor
The device is equipped with a multi-level battery monitor that protects your vehicle
battery against excessive discharging when the device is connected to the on-board
DC supply.
If the cooler is operated when the vehicle ignition is switched off, the cooler switches
off automatically as soon as the supply voltage falls below a set level. The cooler will
switch back on once the 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).
The battery monitor mode can be selected as follows:
➤Switch on the cooler.
➤Long press the “TEMP –” (fig. 23, page 2) button.
➤Use the “TEMP –” (fig. 23, page 2) or “TEMP +” (fig. 24, page 2) buttons to
select the battery monitor mode.
✓Display will be as follows:
Lo (LOW), ΠEd (MED), Hi (HIGH)
✓The selected mode then appears in the display for a few seconds. The display
flashes several times before it returns to the current temperature.
I
NOTICE! Danger of damage!
When switched off by the battery monitor, the battery will no longer be
fully charged. Avoid starting repeatedly or operating current consumers
without longer charging phases. Ensure that the 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 12 V 11.1 V 12.2 V 12.6 V
Switch-off voltage at 24 V 21.5 V 24.1 V 24.6 V
Restart voltage at 24 V 23.0 V 25.3 V 26.2 V
NOTE
When the cooler is supplied by the starter battery, select the battery
monitor mode “HIGH”. If the cooler is connected to a supply battery,
the battery monitor mode “LOW” will suffice.

6.4 Using the cooler
A
➤Place the cooler on a firm foundation.
➤Switch the cooler on by pressing the “ON/OFF” button (fig. 22, page 2).
✓The display switches on and shows the current cooling temperature in °C.
✓The cooler starts cooling the interior.
➤To switch the cooler off, press the “ON/OFF” button (fig. 22, page 2).
➤The display switches off.
6.5 Setting the temperature
The cooling capacity can be influenced by:
•The ambient temperature
•The number of goods to be cooled
•The frequency with which the door is opened
➤Press the “TEMP –” (fig. 23, page 2) button to decrease the desired cooling
temperature by 1 °C.
➤Press the “TEMP +” (fig. 24, page 2) button to increase the desired cooling
temperature by 1 °C.
✓The cooling temperature set in °C then appears in the display for a few seconds.
✓The display flashes to confirm that the selected temperature has been set.
NOTICE! Risk of damage
•Do not switch on the device immediately after transporting it. This
could damage the cooling system. Leave the device to stand for
about 30 minutes after transporting, before you switch it on. This
allows the refrigerant to collect again in the compressor, and the
compressor does not run dry.
•Ensure that the objects or goods placed in the cooling device are
suitable for cooling to the selected temperature.
•Ensure that food or liquids in glass containers are not excessively
refrigerated. Liquids expand when they freeze and can therefore
destroy glass containers.
•Ensure that your cooler is well ventilated so that any heat created can
dissipate. Otherwise proper functioning cannot be ensured. It is
especially important not to cover the air vents.

6.6 Defrosting the cooler
Humidity can form frost in the interior of the cooling device or on the vaporiser. This
reduces the cooling capacity. Defrost the device in good time to avoid this.
A
To defrost the cooler, proceed as follows:
➤Take out the contents of the cooling device.
➤If necessary, place them in another cooling device to keep them cool.
➤Switch off the device.
➤Leave the cover open.
➤Wipe off the defrosted water.
7 Cleaning and care
!
A
➤Occasionally clean the 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.
NOTICE! Danger of damaging the device!
Never use hard or pointed tools to remove ice or to loosen objects
which have frozen in place.
WARNING!
Always disconnect the device from the power supply before you clean
and service it.
NOTICE! Risk of damage
•Never clean the cooler under running water or in dish water.
•Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or hard objects during cleaning
as these can damage the cooler.
