Thermo-Electric Cooler Operating Information
The Thermo-Electric Cooler is designed to keep pre-chilled food and beverages
cold. For maximum efficiency avoid placing warm or room temperature products
in the cooler.
The Thermo-Electric Cooler will lower the temperature to approximately 40° below
ambient room temperature. In normal room temperatures the cooler operates
as follows:
•
The cooling cycle starts when the temperature inside the cooler
reaches 46° to 50° F or higher.
•
The cooling cycle stops when the temperature has reached 38° – 40° F.
In very warm room temperatures, the inside temperature of the cooler may be higher
and the cooling cycle will run continuously.
Operating Instructions for the Thermo-Electric Cooler
Plug the thermo-electric cooler power transformer directly into a wall outlet.
Make sure there is enough slack in the cord running from the chair to the outlet
to allow for rocking and reclining. Never stretch or strain a cord.
1. To turn the thermo-electric cooler on, press the on/off switch located on the top
of the cooler. A red light on the switch indicates the cooler is on.
2. Place pre-chilled items in the cooler.
3. Do not use ice or water in the cooler. The cooler does not have a drain.
4. Do not leave the cooler top open when the cooler is on.
5. To turn the thermo-electric cooler off, press the on/off switch located on the top
of the cooler. The red light on the switch will turn off.
