Welcome To Your New IcyBreeze
Helpful Hints
When using the IcyBreeze as an air conditioner, for best
results the use of blocked ice is recommended in your
IcyBreeze unit. e use of ice from self-serve ma-
chines may not perform as well as block ice in your
unit. IcyBreeze has also found that freezing gallon jugs
with water and placing them inside the unit along with
cubed ice lengthens cooling time. Be sure to ll water
to the “Minimum Water Fill” line.
• To avoid danger of suocation,
dispose of plastic packaging bag;
keep away from children and pets.
• Do not use dry ice. Use of dry ice in
an enclosed area can cause serious
injury or death.
• Do not operate your unit if any
power supply cords are damaged.
• Do not sit or stand on the unit.
• Be sure to secure the unit while
traveling in any moving vehicle.
• Keep the outow vent clear of
any obstructions.
• Do not add salt to any part of the
unit. Salt will cause damage.
• Always pull the unit by the handle,
do not push.
• Empty excess water before liing up
on the handle, water could pour out.
• Do not immerse the unit in water.
• Do not let the unit run dry, as this
could damage the pump.
• Liing too high on the pull handle
could result in tipping and loss of
contents.
• Do not store with lid open.

Unpacking Your IcyBreeze
Take your IcyBreeze unit out of its protective
plastic bag and safely dispose of the plastic
bag. Plastic bags can be hazardous to children
and pets. Unwrap and prepare all chargers and
accessories purchased with your IcyBreeze. En-
sure that all parts and pieces are removed from
the IcyBreeze packaging (box and bag) before
discarding.
Charge Your Battery
Locate your 12 Volt battery charger that is
included with your IcyBreeze. Plug the charger
into the control panel on the top of the Icy-
Breeze lid to begin charging the battery pack.
1) Make sure that the charger’s solid red light is
on. is light indicates that your battery pack is
charging and will be ready in approximately 6
to 8 hours. Charging times may vary. 2) A solid
green light indicates a full charge. 3) If the light
is ashing green, check to make sure unit is o,
check connections. If the light is ashing red,
allow more time to charge (See Page 6).
Other Power Options
If you purchased the optional 12 V automotive
continuous power adapter or 110 V continuous
power wall adapter, you can use your IcyBreeze
immediately without charging the battery pack
completely. Please note: e 12 V automotive
and 110 V adapters will not charge the battery
pack. Follow the rest of the directions for lling
the cooler before turning the unit on.

Filling Your Cooler
Before lling your IcyBreeze cooler, make sure
the drain plug is properly tted to the drain
tube. Next, ll the unit with approximately 2 1/2
quarts of cold tap water or until the water level
covers the “Minimum Water Level” line clearly
marked inside the unit. Adding hot water will
reduce cooling performance. is will ensure
optimum operation.
Fill the IcyBreeze with the desired amount of
ice. Do not use dry ice. is can cause serious
health risks and even death. Be sure not to
overll the cooler; the lid should close with-
out impacting any ice. e unit holds up to 30
pounds of ice.
Using Your Portable
Air Conditioner
By this step, your IcyBreeze should have power,
water, and ice. Turn the switch to one of the
three fan positions to start your IcyBreeze. It
takes the pump about 20 seconds to run water
through the cooling system. Once the ice begins
cooling the water, you should begin to feel cool
air. e air of the IcyBreeze comes out through
the vent or you may also pull the exible vent
tube to direct the airow.

Troubleshooting
I hear a loud whining noise.
If you hear a loud whine, this is an indication that
the pump is running dry. Make sure the unit has
been lled with water to the minimum ll line
with 2 quarts of water.
Battery will not charge.
(See page 5 for more information) Check to make
sure the unit is turned o. e unit is o when
the switch wheel has been rotated all the way
forward to the bare position on the switch. Be
sure the connection to the charging unit is tted
properly to the control panel and the charge plug
is locked into the panel.
Check that the LED light on the charger is solid
red, this indicates the battery pack is charging. If
a ashing red light is indicated aer checking the
above, the battery has dropped below 5 V and is
in trickle charge mode until the battery reaches
5 V. It will then switch to a solid red light indicat-
ing that the unit is charging.
If a ashing green light is present on the charger,
conrm that the charger is tted properly to the
control panel and that the unit is in the o posi-
tion. If issue persists, please contact IcyBreeze.

Cleaning Your IcyBreeze
e IcyBreeze functions best when kept clean. Aer use, pull
the drain plug and be sure to drain any remaining water from
the cooler area of the unit. e outside and inside surfaces of
the IcyBreeze can be cleaned with most mild cleaning solu-
tions and rinsed thoroughly aerwards. Store the unit in a
cool, dry area at temperatures above 35 degrees Fahrenheit to
avoid water freezing in the unit.
IcyBreeze recommend periodically running the system using
a white vinegar and water solution in the areas of the country
with hard water. ese mineral deposits can build up in the
pump, tubing, and radiator reducing heat exchange eciency
and possibly plugging the system.
