• Keep the ventilation slots free of any dust and dirt, so that heat can be released and
EN
the device is not damaged.
• To clean around the motor surround, place the compressor cooler in a well-ventilated
area and use a vacuum cleaner or a gentle stream of compressed air.
• WARNING: Under no circumstances is the motor surround to be removed.
DEFROSTING
Periodically ice may form on the inside of the compressor cooler. This will reduce its
capacity and cooling efficiency. Defrosting your compressor cooler regularly will keep
the compressor cooler at peak operating condition.
1.
Turn off the compressor cooler.
2. Disconnect compressor cooler from AC or DC power supply.
3. Remove all contents and removable spacer.
4. Open the lid to allow the interior compartment to warm up to ambient air temperature.
5. As ice melts, soak up the water with a clean towel.
6. Once all ice has melted, clean the interior.
7. Let it dry completely.
CAUTION: DO NOT use hard, sharp or pointed objects to defrost the compressor
cooler or loosen items that have become frozen in place. Irreparable damage to cooling
system can occur.
STORING
• Carefully wind up the AC and DC power cords and store it in a dry place.
• Ensure the inside is fully dry before storing when not in use.
• Store the appliance in a cool, dry place, protected from moisture and direct sunlight.
• When not in use the cooler's lid shall be left ajar to prevent mould growth and

When operating
from the DC socket:
The ignition is on
and the compressor
cooler is not
working.
56
POSSIBLE CAUSE
There is no voltage flowing
in the DC socket in your
vehicle.
No voltage present in the
AC voltage socket.
The inner fan or the cooling
element is defective.
The fuse of the DC plug is
dirty. This results in poor
electrical contact.
The fuse of the DC plug has
blown.
The vehicle fuse has blown.
SUGGESTED REMEDY
The ignition must be switched on
in most vehicles to apply current to
the DC socket.
Try using another plug socket.
This can only be repaired by an
authorised repair centre.
If the plug becomes very warm in
the DC socket fitting, either the
fitting must be cleaned or the plug
has not been assembled correctly.
Replace the fuse of the DC plug
with one of the same rating.
Replace the vehicle's DC socket
fuse (usually 15 A). Please refer
to the operating manual of your
vehicle.
