4 Intended use
The cooler is suitable for cooling and freezing foods. The device is
also suitable for use on boats.
The device is designed to be operated from a 12 Vgor 24 Vgon-
board supply socket of a vehicle (e. g. cigarette lighter), boat or
caravan.
INOTE
To operate the device at the AC mains supply, we recommend us-
ing one of the following WAECO rectifiers:
220–240 V: CoolPower EPS100 or EPS817
110–240 V: CoolPower MPS35
!CAUTION! Health hazard!
Please check if the cooling capacity of the device is suitable for
storing the food or medicine you wish to cool.
5 Function description
The cooler can chill products, keep them cool as well as freeze
them. A maintenance-free, CFC-free refrigerant circuit with com-
pressor provides the cooling. The extra strong CFC-free insulation
and powerful compressor ensure especially fast cooling.
The cooler is designed for mobile use.
When used on boats, the cooler can be withstand a constant heel
(inclination) of 30°.
An integrated dual-level battery monitor prevents your vehicle bat-
tery from being discharging too low.

6 Operation
6.1 Before initial use
INOTE
Before starting your new cooler for the first time, you should clean
it inside and outside with a damp cloth for hygienic reasons (please
also refer to the “Cleaning and maintenance” on page 27).
6.2 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 device
to keep cool.
Do not open the cooling device more often than necessary.
Do not leave the cooler unit open for longer than necessary.
Defrost the cooler once a layer of ice forms.
Avoid unnecessary low temperatures.
6.3 Connecting the cooler
The cooler can be operated with 12 V or 24 V DC.
ANOTICE! Danger of damaging the device!
Disconnect the cooler and other consumer units from the battery
before you connect the battery to a quick charging device.
Overvoltage can damage the electronics of the device.
For safety reasons the cooler is equipped with an electronic system
to prevent the polarity reversal. This protects the cooler against
short-circuiting when connecting to a battery.
➤Plug the 12/24-V connection cable (fig. 12, page 2) into the
DC voltage socket and also into the cigarette lighter or a 12 V
or 24 V socket.
