4 Scope of delivery
5 Technical description
The refrigerator can cool products to a maximum of 20 °C under the ambient
temperature (thermostat switches off at approx. +5 °C) or warm them and
keep them warm to a maximum of 65 °C (MF-05, MF-15) or 55 °C (MF-18D).
A grid divider can be used to separate foodstuffs, e.g. bottles and fruit.
The refrigerator is suitable for mobile use and can be carried by the recessed
handle (MF-05) or with a folding handle (MF-15, MF-18D). MF-18D can also
be used (horizontally) as a cooler (2, page 3).
Its cooling system is a non-wearing and CFC-free Peltier cooling, the heat is
discharged by a fan. The MF-18D allows you to choose between normal
operation and fan operation (quiet mode).
The device has an integrated mains adapter with a priority circuit. The device
switches automatically to mains operation when the device is connected to a
220-240 V AC mains supply even if the 12 V connection cable is still con-
nected.

Like every cooling device, your cooler must be properly ventilated
so that any heat created can be drawn off. Otherwise proper func-
tioning cannot be ensured.
➤Place the refrigerator on a firm base.
Ensure that the ventilation slots are at least 10 cm away from the wall so
that the heat that arises during operation can be drawn off.
➤Plug the 12 V connection cable (12, page 3) into the DC socket and also
into the cigarette lighter or a 12 V socket ...
or
➤Plug the 220-240 V connection cable (13, page 3) into the AC voltage
socket and connect it to the 220-240 V AC mains supply.
➤MF-05, MF-15: push the switch (33, page 3) on the control panel to
“HOT” or “COLD” to switch the device on.
➤MF-18D: press the “HOT” button (heating, 55, page 4) or “COLD”
(cooling, 52, page 4), to switch on the device.
✓The refrigerator starts cooling/heating the interior and the appropriate
LED lights up.
Ensure that the objects placed in the refrigerator are suitable for
cooling or heating to the selected temperature.
