Operating the device safely

Danger: Do not touch exposed cables with your bare hands. This especially applies when operating the device with an AC mains power supply.
Caution: Before starting the device, ensure that the power supply line and the plug are day.
Notice:

  • Do not use electrical devices inside the cooler unless they are recommended by the manufacturer for the purpose.

  • Do not place the device near naked flames or other heat sources(heaters, direct sunlight, gas ovens etc.).

  • The danger of overheating!

  • Ensure at all times that there is sufficient ventilation so that the heat that arises during operation does not build up. Make sure that the device is sufficiently far away from walls and other objects
    so that the air can circulate.

  • Ensure that the ventilation slots are not covered.

Function description

The Freezer can chill products, keep them cool as well as freeze them. A low- maintenance refrigerant circuit with a compressor provides cooling. The generous insulation and powerful compressor
ensure efficient and fast cooling.
The freezer is portable.
The freezer can withstand a constant heel (inclination) of 30º, for example when used on boats.

Operation

Before initial use
Note: 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”.G21 6390521 50 Compressor and Car
Refrigerator fig 6

The lid can be removable or can be opened from either side in an instant, 2 ways opening – left or right.

Selecting the temperature units
Temperature display units can be switched between Celsius and Fahrenheit as follows:

  • Switch on the cooler.
  • Press the “SET” button twice.
  • Use the UP+ or DOWN – buttons to select Celsius or Fahrenheit.
    The selected temperature units then appear in the display for a few seconds. The display flashes several times before it returns to the current temperature.

Energy-saving tips

  • Choose a well-ventilated installation location that 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.

Connecting the cooler
Connecting to a battery(Vehicle or boat)
The cooler can be operated with 12 V or 24 V
Notice: Danger of damage!

  • 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 into the device DC voltage socket and also into a 12 V or 24 V cigarette lighter socket.

Connecting to a 220-240 V AC mains
Danger: Danger of electrocution!

  • Never handle plugs and switches with wet hands or if you are standing on a wet surface.

  • If you are operating your cooler on board a boat from a mains connection of 220-240 V~, you
    must install a residual current circuit breaker between the 220-240 V AC mains and the cooler.

  • Seek advice from a trained technician.

  • The cooler have an integrated multi-voltage power supply with a priority circuit that automatically switches the cooler to mains operation if the device is connected to a 220-240 V AC mains, even if the
    12/24V connection cable is still attached.

  • Plug the 220-240 V connection cable into the device AV voltage socket and connect it to the 220-240 V AC voltage mains

Notice: Danger of damage!
When switched off by the battery monitor, the battery will no longer be full charged. Avoid starting repeatedly or operating current consumers without longer charging phases. Ensure that the
the battery is recharged!
In “HIGH” mode, the battery monitor responds faster than at the levels “LOW” and “MED”(see the following table).

Battery monitor mode LOW MED HIGH
The switch-off voltage at 12 V 10.1 V 11.4 V 11.8 V
Restart voltage at 12 V 11.1 V 12.2 V 12.6 V
The switch-off voltage at 24 V 21.5 V 24.1 V 24.6 V
Restart voltage at 24 V 23.0 V 25.3 V 26.2 V

Replacing the device fuse
Danger: Danger of electrocution!

Disconnect the connection cable before you replace the device fuse.

  • Pull off the connection cable.
  • Pry out the fuse insert with a screwdriver.
  • Replace the defective fuse with a new one that has the same rating.
  • Press the fuse insert back into the housing.

Replacing the plug fuse (12/24 V)

  • Turn anticlockwise the cap to move it and pin from the plug.
  • Press one end of the defective fuse with a new one that has the same rating
  • Re-assemble the plug in the reverse order.

Cleaning and maintenance

Warning: Always disconnect the device from the mains before you clean and service it.
Notice: Risk of damage

  • Never clean the cooler under running water or in dishwater.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or hard objects during cleaning as these can damage the cooler.
  • Occasionally clean the device’s interior and exterior with a damp cloth.

Troubleshooting

Fault Possible cause Suggested remed

Device does not function, LED does not glow.

| There is no voltage present in the 12/24 V socket (cigarette lighter) in your vehicle.| The ignition must be switched on in most vehicles to apply current to the cigarette lighter.
No voltage present in the AC voltage socket.| Try using another plug socket.
The device fuse is defective.| Replace the device fuse, see “Replacing the device fuse”.
The integrated mains adapter is defective.| This can only be repaired by an authorized repair centre.
The device does not cool (plug is inserted “POWER” LED is lit).| Defective compressor.| This can only be repaired by an authorized customer servi- ces unit.
The device does not cool (plug is inserted, “POWER” LED flashed orange, the display is swit- ched off).| The battery voltage is too low.| Test the battery and charge it as needed.

When operating from the 12/24-V socket (cigarette lighter): The ignition is on and the device is not working and the LED is not lit. Pull the plug out of the socket and make the following checks.

| The cigarette lighter socket is dirty. This results in poor electrical contact.| If the plug of your cooler becomes very warm in the cigarette lighter socket, either the lighter socket must be cleaned or the plug has not been assembled correctly.
The fuse of the 12/24 V plug has blown.| Replace the fuse(10A) in the 12/24 V plug, see “ Replacing the plug fuse(12/24 V)”.
The Vehicle fuse has blown.| Replace the vehicle’s 12/24 V socket fuse(usually 15 A).
 |  | Please refer to your vehicle’s operating manual.
The display shows an error message(e.g. “Err1”) and the appliance does not cool.| The appliance has been switched off due to an internal fault.| This can only be repaired by an authorized repair center.
