3. Cleaning
Clean both the inside and outside of the appliance
before putting it into use.
To do so, use a soft towel, lukewarm water and a non-
abrasive detergent. Ensure water does not enter the
rear cover grille or the control elements.
Afterwards, wipe the appliance with a clean towel and
cleanwater, and then wipe it dry.
To avoid damage, do not use soap, soda or abrasive
cleaners.
4. Positioning the appliance
During the refrigeration process, the appliance
gives off heat from the condenser (under the
upper part of the rear cover) into the surrounding air.
The more ventilated the condenser is, the more
effective the refrigeration will be.
The other condition for satisfactory operation is that
the appliance stands on a flat surface. This is best
seen by placing a glass of water on top of the
appliance.
It is important that the appliance is not directly
exposed to radiated heat (sunlight, radiator, near an
oven, etc.).
In gas operation following clearances should be
kept from the walls or other materials: from the back
side of the appliance minimum 10cms, from both
sidewalls 4cms each, from the top of the appliance
minimum 30 cms, from the bottom minimum 5 cms.
In the immediate vicinity of the appliance within the
specified distances no inflammable matters (paper,
wood, grass, textile etc.) should be met with.
5. Using the appliance
The cable for mains connection, the 12V connecting
cable and the connector for the gas hook-up are
located on the rear cover of the cooling box. (Figure
2).
5.1. Operating from electrical mains
Make sure the voltage shown on the data plate of the
appliance matches that of the mains voltage to which
you wish to connect the appliance. Pull out the mains
connecting cable and connect it to a receptacle
earthed socket for connection.
When connecting the appliance for the first time, set
the thermostat (Figure 4. A), to maximum; then, after
about five hours, set it back towards minimum
according to your need of cooling.
NB: Plug is provided according to specific
regulations in each country and may be different to
that shown.

Figure 3.
Figure 4.
5.2. Operating from vehicle battery
Make sure the voltage shown on the data plate of the
appliance matches the voltage of the vehicle battery
(12V or 24V).
12V DC voltage appliances are equipped with
connectors that can be plugged into cigarette lighters
(Figure 3.). For some types of vehicles, you may need
to remove the red plastic ring located on the end of
the connector. To do so, turn the plastic ring anti-
clockwise and pull it off. The appliance can then be
connected to the cigarette lighter. In 12V operation,
the appliance runs uninterrupted without temperature
control.
24V DC voltage appliances are shipped with bare wire
ends. The wire ends must be connected to a terminal
block, which is connected to the vehicle battery via a
5A fuse and 5A switch.
Whenever the engine is not running, the
appliance connector must be removed from the
cigarette lighter (12V appliance) or the switch turned
off (24V appliance). Otherwise, the appliance will
discharge the vehicle battery rapidly.
5.3. Operating from bottled gas
Connection to the gas cylinder is described in
sections 9.3. and 9.4.
After opening the valve of the gas cylinder and
checking for gas leaks turn thermostat to maximum
position (Figure 4. B), press down the gas safety valve
hold it down for about 10 seconds and then, press the
piezo-ignition button (marked with a star Figure 4. C)
several times in quick succession. If the flame does
not ignite, repeat the process. (Air in the appliance
gas line prior to connection to the gas cylinder must
be purged. Only then can the gas be lit.).
The control knob has 4 positions:
: high flame (MAX) = gas supply maximum
(high ambient temperature ~32 °C);
: medium flame (MID)= gas supply medium
(normal ambient temperature ~25°C);
: low flame (MIN) = gas supply minimum (low
ambient temperature ~16°C);
: off-position = gas supply to burner is shut off.
Ignition of the flame can be verified through the flameview
opening (Figure 5). After you have the flame alight keep the
safety gas valve pressed down for a further 20 seconds.
To stop the gas operation the valve of the gas cylinder (or
the pressure regulator) is to close.

6. Ice-making
Fill the ice-tray with drinking water to within 4/5 from the top and cover with lid. Wipe off any drops of water
which may be on the tray and lid to prevent freezing together and place in the cooler on the refrigerating unit.
Ice will be made more quickly when the thermostat knob (for electric operation) or regulating knob (for liquid
gas operation) is set to MAX for a short time. (When ice has formed, do not forget to return the knob to its
normal setting.)
To remove the ice, allow the ice-tray to defrost slightly for a while or run it under tap water at normal
temperature before removing the lid from the tray. The ice cubes can now be removed easily from the tray.
7. Useful suggestions
When setting out on a trip, run the appliance on 230 V (in thermostat setting between "min" and "max") for
24 hours prior to departure. Place food in a precooled condition into the appliance.
Frost forms on the evaporator panel when in operation. When opening the lid or putting in food, some of
this frost melts and collects in the form of water on the bottom of the appliance. Wipe the water off
occasionally using a sponge.
Avoid putting foods with fragile packaging (such as glass) into the cooling box. Movements and shaking of
the unit may cause these items to break.
Once the coolong box is in its permanent position, make sure foods do not come into contact with the
evaporator panel, as this can cause freezer-burn to the foods.
8. Defrosting, cleaning and maintenance
For defrosting, always unplug the appliance from an electrical power source to avoid the risk of shock.
Make sure no other power source is connected (gas or 12V/24V). Remove food from the refrigeration unit and
leave the lid open. Depending on the temperature, frost melts in a short time from the evaporator panel, with
water collecting at the bottom of the appliance.
Wipe it off using a towel. Afterwards, clean the appliance by following the instructions in section 3.
Leave the lid ajar to prevent any odours from forming.
The appliance does not require any further maintenance.
