Technical description
The cooler is suitable for use when camping, on a patio, in the garden,
or anywhere where a 12 V DC power connection (such as the cigarette lighter
in a vehicle) or a 220 V – 240 V mains voltage is available. You can also
operate the cooler with liquid gas.
You can cool goods to up to 25 °C below ambient temperature.
The device cools with a maintenance-free absorber circuit. Concentrated
ammoniac solution is heated in a boiler and then driven out in gaseous form.
The gas which is subjected to high pressure, is liquefied in a condenser and
then evaporated by adding hydrogen. This removes warmth in the cooling area.

Operating the cooler
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" chapter on
page 26).
6.1
Energy saving tips
Choose a well ventilated installation location which is protected against
direct sunlight.
Allow food to cool down first before placing it in the device.
Do not open the cooler more often than necessary.
Do not leave the lid open for longer than necessary.
Arrange the food in the cooler so that air can circulate inside.
6.2
Using the cooler
Cool the cooler for about 24 hours before starting your journey
using gas or electricity from the mains. This way your cooler will
attain the required cooling capacity faster when you reach your
destination.
The cooling capacity can be influenced by:
– The ambient temperature
– The amount of food to be conserved
– The frequency with which the lid is opened.
➤ Place the cooler on a firm and level base.
Check the horizontal position (±2°) with a spirit level if necessary.
