frequency and duration of opening the lid.
Use your cooler at ECO setting to reduce the power consumption
of your cooler.
Ensure that the coolbox is not packed too full and that the air can
circulate adequately between the coolbox content.
4.2 RUNNING MODES / DIAL FEATURES
Your Campingaz
cooler is equipped with a control dial (Drawing.
®
that will allow you to choose the way your cooler will run
depending on your needs and preference.
1/ OFF setting : This setting completely shuts off the operation of
the cooler without the need to unplug the powercord.
2/ ECO setting : When the cooler operates in ECO position, it
allows a very high level of energy saving. It gives a Delta T (
difference between outside temperature and inside temperature)
of approximately 8°C to 10°C. For example, if the outside
temperature is 21°C, the temperature inside the cooler will reach
approximately 11°C to 13°C.
This setting is recommended for long term usage (several days)
and for usage in air-conditioned cars or at outside temperatures
up to 21°C.
3/ MAX setting : This setting offers the maximum and ultimate
cooling performance. When the cooler operates in MAX position ,
the Delta T is approximately 17°C to 18°C.
In this position, the temperature inside the cooler is lower than in
the ECO position but more energy is consumed.
This setting is recommended for short term on the spot usage and
for usage in hot conditions.
4/ NIGHT setting : This mode lowers the fan speed to reduce the
GB
noise level and make the cooler quieter. In this configuration the
inside temperature is approx. 15°C below ambient.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Before cleaning your cooler, make sure that it is disconnected from
any electrical power supply. When cleaning the cooling box please
refrain from using a harsh cleaning agent or solvent. The best way
to clean the box is with a damp cloth, possibly also using some
washing up liquid.
If the coolbox is not going to be used for a lengthy period of time,
it should be dried beforehand. It is also important to provide good
ventilation, in order to avoid the formation of mould.
It is recommended to leave the lid open when the appliance is
not in use.
You can continuously use the CAMPINGAZ
cooler for days at a time, but it is necessary to regularly switch
it off in order to defrost it and to empty the condensated water, if
necessary.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
If you have a problem with your thermo-electric cooler, we advise
you to read the following with care.
6.1. Cable problem
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the
Manufacturer or its After-Sales Service or a similarly qualified person
in order to avoid Hazards. See separate spreadsheet.
6.2. Connection problem
Your cooler and the outside rotor of the fan are not running (green
LED off):
Check the car lighter socket: in most vehicles the ignition must be
turned on for the lighter to work. If the ignition is turned on but the
cooler is not operating, remove the plug from the socket
immediately, and make the following checks:
Cigarette lighter socket: when the cigarette lighter is used
frequently, it can be soiled by tobacco, causing a bad electric
contact. Clean it with a non-metallic brush.
If the cooler plug heats abnormally in the cigarette lighter,
clean the socket or check to make sure the plug is assembled
correctly.
12V
power supply cable is protected by a 7 A fuse. Check that the
fuse has not blown by unscrewing the 12V
cable (Drawing H/H1).
Fuse replacement for the UK plug: After the disconnection of your
device from the mains, check that the plug fuse has not blown by
unscrewing the plug.
6.3. Cooling problem
Your cooler is connected correctly to an electrical power supply, but it is
not cooling properly and the outside rotor of the fan is not running: The
fan motor is probably defective, contact After Sales Service.
Your cooler is not cooling correctly and the outside rotor of the fan
is running. Open the lid to check the operation of the inside fan:
--If the inside fan is not running, the fan motor is probably
defective, contact After Sales Service.
--If the inside fan is running, the Peltier system is probably
defective, contact After Sales Service.
6.4. Noise
The thermoelectric system requires a fan to dissipate hot air and
create cool air circulation inside the cooler. The fan motor can be
heard when the cooler is plugged to a power source.
Electrical and electronic waste (Drawing I)
This symbol means that the appliance's electrical system must be
disposed of selectively. At the end of its life, the appliance's electrical
system must be scrapped correctly. The electrical system must not
be disposed of with unsorted municipal waste. Selective collection of
waste promotes reuse, recycling or other forms of recovery of
recyclable materials contained in this waste. Take the appliance's
electrical system to a waste recovery centre designed for the purpose
(waste collection point). Check with your local authorities. Never
dispose of in nature, do not incinerate: the presence of certain
hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment can be
harmful to the environment, and have a potential effect on human
health.
