socket is dirty. This
results in a poor elec-
trical contact.
If the plug of your cooler becomes very
warm in the cigarette lighter socket,
either the socket must be cleaned or the
plug has not been assembled correctly.
The fuse of the 12 V
plug has blown.
Pull the plug out of the socket and
replace the fuse (5 A) in the 12-V plug
(fig. 31, page 2).
