5.1 Operation

To start the device, press the “ON/OFF” button on the control panel. To switch off the device, press and hold the “ON/OFF” button on the control panel for about 5
seconds.
Select display unit between °C and °F: Press and hold the “DOWN” and “SET” keys for 10 seconds. The temperature unit selection mode is indicated by a flashing “°C” or “°F” in the display and is available for 5 seconds. During this time, press the “DOWN” or “UP” keys to switch between units. After 5 seconds of inactivity, the unit will return to normal operation.
Then touch the “UP” or “DOWN” button to select the temperature unit Celsius or Fahrenheit. The selected temperature unit appears and flashes on the display for
a few seconds. Then the display automatically returns to the current temperature. Setting the cooling temperature: Touch the “SET” button once and then the “UP+”
and “DOWN -” buttons to set the desired cooling temperature. The selected temperature flashes on the display for a few seconds, then the display automatically shows the
measured ACTUAL temperature again.

Setting the battery monitor to protect against low voltage

The cooling unit comes with a 3-level battery monitor that protects your vehicle battery from excessive discharge when the device is connected to the on-board electrical system.
If the cooler box is operated when the vehicle ignition is switched off, the cooler box switches off automatically as soon as the supply voltage drops below a certain value. The cooler box switches on again as soon as the battery is charged to the restarting voltage.
Caution! There is a risk of damage!
After being switched off by the battery monitor, the battery is no longer fully charged. Avoid repeated starting or operation without prior longer charging phases.
In the “H3” level, the battery monitor responds faster than in the “H1” and “H2” levels.
If the cooling unit is powered by the battery after starting, select the battery monitor level “H3”. If the cooling unit is connected to a supply battery, the battery monitor level “H1” is sufficient.

Switch on the cooling unit. There are 3 levels for the battery monitor setting to protect against low voltage: H1, H2 and H3. Touch the “UP” and “DOWN” buttons
simultaneously for about five seconds. “H1” or “H2” or “H3” flash on the screen. Touch the “UP” or “DOWN” button to select the battery monitor level “H1” or “H2” or “H3” and to protect your vehicle battery.
The selected monitor level “H1” or “H2” or “H3” flashes in the display for a few seconds. A few seconds after setting, the indicator flashes several times before returning to the current temperature.

Operating mode setting

The device has two operating modes:
Operating mode HH: In this mode, the cooling unit works in standard mode. The LED “on” light turns red.
Operating mode ECO: The cooling unit works in power-saving mode. The LED “on” light turns green in this operating mode.
Selecting the operating mode: Press the “SET” key twice in succession.
The currently set mode is displayed (“HH” or “ECO”).
Now select the desired mode with the “UP” or “DOWN” keys.
The display continues to flash as long as the selection option is still available (approx. 5 sec.).
Afterwards, the selection is accepted and the display changes back  to the current temperature.
