– Conrm pairing by short pressing the settings button on the cooler.
– The cooler is now connected for mobile use.
Battery capacity indicator
When the optional HyCooler Powerpack is installed, the remaining battery capacity will be shown
on the display. If the cooler is connected with the AC power adapter and not switched on, the
battery charging status will be shown.
When connected to a 12/24V power supply, such as a vehicle’s starting or stationary battery, a
capacity indication of the vehicle’s battery will be shown on the display.
When connected to a 110-230V power supply using the adapter, the display will always
show the maximum battery capacity.
Charging USB devices
Small mobile devices can be charged via the integrated USB charging port. When connecting the
device to the USB port of the cooler, charging will start automatically.
Detachable ice pack
Inside the lid a detachable ice pack is installed (only for HyCooler Go 8 and Go 15 models). The
ice pack can be taken o and freely used inside the cooling compartment, or used at its original
position inside the lid.
– Take o the ice pack by rotating the knob 90°.
– Remove the cover on top of the ice pack and ll it with water (maximum 400 ml)
– Put the cover back on top of the ice pack.
Periodically change the water in order to prevent bacteria build-up. Do not drink the
water or let children play with the ice pack. If the cooler is not in use for a longer period,
drain the water from the ice pack and leave it to dry with the cover o.
7 Using the Powerpack (optional accessory)
At the bottom side of the cooler there is a compartment where an optional HyCooler Powerpack
can be installed. The Powerpack is a lithium battery which oers stand-alone operation, without
power supply, up to 24H.
The cooler will recognize the Powerpack automatically once installed. When the cooler is
connected to a 12/24V power supply in a vehicle, or a 110-230V power supply using the adapter,
the Powerpack will be automatically charged.

Installing the Powerpack
– Remove the compartment cover by pressing both release buttons at the same time.
– Remove the battery connector protection cover inside the battery compartment. The
6-pin battery connector must be clearly visible (skip this step if no battery connector
protection is installed)
– Slide the Powerpack into the battery compartment of the cooler, while pressing both
release buttons at the same time.
– Release the buttons, the Powerpack is now locked and ready for use.
Using the Powerpack
– Long press the power button on the Powerpack to switch it on. Long press the power
button on the Powerpack again to switch o the battery.
– The power indicator will turn blue and the cooler will give a beep tone, indicating it is
ready for stand-alone use.
– The power indicator will turn green when the cooler is connected to a 12/24V power
supply in a vehicle, or a 110-230V power supply using the adapter, indicating the
Powerpack is being charged.
– The cooler can now be used stand-alone without power supply for up to 24H.
Remove the Powerpack from the cooler when it is left unused for a longer period of time.
Charging the Powerpack
– The Powerpack is equipped with a capacity indicator, showing the remaining battery
capacity. Also the cooler will show the remaining battery capacity on its display.
– When the cooler is connected to a 12/24V power supply in a vehicle, or a 110-230V power
supply using the adapter, the Powerpack will be automatically charged.
– Charging time will be around 4-8 hours, depending on the battery condition, charging
state and available input power.
It is recommended to connect the cooler to a 110-230V power supply, using the adapter,
for charging the battery. The 110-230V adapter will give maximum input power to the
cooler for optimal charging performance. When the cooler is switched o while charging
the battery, the charging time will be decreased while all available power will be used
for charging the battery.
An optional 110-230V battery charger is sold separately to charge the Powerpack without using
the cooler.
WARNING! Do not disassemble the battery. This may result in death or serious
injuries.
8 Advanced Settings
Cooling mode
This cooler is equipped with variable speed compressor technology. The electronics will
automatically vary the compressor speed depending on the conditions to reach and maintain the
set temperature.
MAX mode is the default setting for automatic and quick cooling.
ECO mode will lower the compressor speed and saves up to 35% power consumption. This mode
can also be used at night to reduce unwanted noises.
This feature can be controlled via the app, or changed on the cooler using the control panel:
– Short press the settings button. The current cooling mode setting will start to ash.
– Short press the settings button again to switch between modes.
– After three seconds the selected cooling mode will be set and becomes solid again on
the display .
Battery protection mode
The intelligent battery protection system will prevent the cooler to drain the vehicle battery.
If the supply voltage falls below a set level, the cooler will switch o. Once the voltage reaches
the restart voltage level, the cooler will automatically switch back on.
The battery protection mode can be set to three levels, following the table below:
12V 24V
OFF ON OFF ON
L - Low 8,5V 10,9V 21,3V 22,7V
M - Medium 10,1V 11,4V 22,3V 23,7V
H - High 11,1V 12,4V 24,3V 25,7V
High level should be set when the cooler is connected to a vehicle battery. Medium or
Low level should be set when the cooler is connected to a portable or backup battery.
This feature can be controlled via the app, or changed on the cooler using the control panel:
– Long press the settings button for three seconds. The current setting will start to ash.
– Short press the settings button again to switch between modes.
– After three seconds the selected battery protection mode will be set and becomes solid
again on the display.
Change temperature unit setting
The displayed temperature unit can be changed between °Celsius and °Fahrenheit using this
setting. This aects both the displayed unit in the app and on the cooler.
This feature can be controlled via the app, or changed on the cooler using the control panel:
– Switch o the cooler.
– Long press the settings button for ve seconds until the display shows ‘E1’.
– Short press the settings button until the display shows ‘E5’.
– Use the + and – buttons to switch between °C and °F.
– The selected temperature unit will start ashing.
– After three seconds the display turns o.
– The selected temperature unit is stored.
Factory reset

9 Cleaning and maintenance
Cleaning
Occasionally clean the cooler with a damp cloth and leave it to dry.
– Make sure the cooler is disconnected from the power supply before cleaning to avoid
electric shocks.
– If the optional Powerpack is installed, remove the battery from the compartment and
place the compartment cover back in place.
– Do not soak the device in water or clean it under running water.
– Do not use hard objects or abrasive cleaning agents as these can damage the device.
– Periodically check the air inlet and outlet vents for dust or dirt blocking the airow.
Defrosting
The cooler must be defrosted from time to time. Due to humidity, frost can settle on the
evaporator and will reduce the cooling capacity of the device.
– Make sure the cooler is disconnected from the power supply before cleaning to avoid
electric shocks.
– If the optional Powerpack is installed, remove the battery from the compartment and
place the compartment cover back in place.
– Never use sharp objects to defrost the device as they can damage the refrigerant circuit.
– Do not use mechanical objects or other means speeding up the defrosting process as
they can damage the device.
– Remove the melt water (by removing the drain plug if applicable)
– Clean with a damp cloth and leave it to dry.
Storage
When the device is left unused for a longer period of time:
– Disconnect the power cable and make sure the device is switched o.
– If the optional Powerpack is installed, remove the battery from the compartment and
place the compartment cover back in place.
– Leave the device for some time to defrost.
– Clean and dry the device.
– To prevent moulds and odours developing within the cooling compartment, take o the
lid or leave it opened.
10 Troubleshooting
When there are issues with the cooler during use, please refer to the troubleshooting list below.
If this does not resolve the issues, please contact a local retailer or visit www.hyckes.com.
Issue Possible cause or suggestion
The device does not function. Check if the power cable and plugs are connected
correct.
