e

z Before starting up the device for the first time, check whether

the operating voltage and the battery voltage match (see type

plate).

z If the connection cable is damaged, it must be replaced to pre-

vent possible electrical hazards. Only replace a damaged cable

with one of the same type and specifications.

2.2 Operating the device safely

a

z Electrical devices are not toys!

Always keep and use the device out of the reach of children.

z Protect the device and the cable against heat and moisture.

e

z Do not touch exposed cables with your bare hands.

z Disconnect the refrigerator and other electric loads from the bat-

tery, before you connect the battery to a quick charging device.

Overvoltage can damage the device electronics.

I

z Note:

Disconnect the device if you are not going to use it for a pro-

longed period.

5 Technical description

The CoolFreeze compressor cooler MC-045 (Ref. No. 9105100004) is suita-

ble for use with 12 V DC voltage.

The compressor cooler can cool goods down to a constant temperature of

5 °C and keep them cool.

All materials used in the compressor cooler are compatible for use with food-

stuffs. The refrigerant circuit is maintenance-free.

The device is fitted with a cooling unit which can be installed separately

(fig. 1, page 3).

5.1 Control elements

5.2 Automatic safety circuit

If the temperature in the interior exceeds 55 °C, the compressor cooler

switches off automatically.

Once the temperature falls below 55 °C, the compressor cooler switches on

again automatically (On/Off switch will remain in the On position).

The automatic safety circuit also monitors the activation of the compressor

cooler, which is only possible at a maximum temperature of 55 °C.

5.3 Low voltage shutdown

The low voltage shutdown switches the compressor cooler off automatically

when the on-board voltage falls below 10.6 V. This prevents the vehicle bat-

tery from discharging.

The compressor cooler switches on again automatically when the on-board

voltage rises above 11.9 V, e. g. after starting the vehicle.

6 Installing and connecting the device

a

Caution

The device can be tilted sideways permanently up to 30°. When

installing the cooler, make sure that the device is fastened to take

this into account. If you have any questions regarding installation,

consult your specialist dealer.

6.1 Installing the device

The appliance is designed for ambient temperatures between –10 °C and

+55 °C. In continuous operation, the air humidity may not exceed 90 %.

➤ Please observe the following instructions for the installation location:

– Avoid setting up the device next to sources of heat, e. g. heaters.

– Install the device in a dry, sheltered place.

– The device must be installed so that heated air can dissipate easily.

Therefore make sure there is adequate ventilation.

➤ Secure the device with two screws (fig. 3 1, page 3).

6.2 Connecting the device to a battery

The device is operated using 12 V DC voltage:

e

Caution

To avoid voltage drops and loss of performance, keep the cable as

short as possible and avoid joins.

For this reason avoid additional switches, plugs or multi-way adapt-

ers.

Disconnect the refrigerator and other electric loads from the battery

before connecting the battery to a quick charging device.

Overvoltage can damage the electronics of the device.

➤ Before starting up the device for the first time, check whether the operat-

ing voltage and the battery voltage match (see type plate).

➤ Determine the required cross section of the cable in relation to the cable

length according to fig. 4, page 4.

e

Caution

Make sure the polarity is correct when connecting to a battery.

➤ Connect the cooling device

– as directly as possible to the poles of the battery or

– to a slot protected with at least 15 A.

7 Using the device

I

Note

Before using the appliance for the first time, clean the inside and

outside with a damp cloth for hygienic reasons (see also chapter

“Cleaning and maintenance” on page 21).

a

Caution

The ambient temperature has an impact on the interior temperature

of the device.

Take note that the set fixed temperature of 5 °C will fall below this

level if the ambient temperature drops below 0 °C.

7.1 Energy saving tips

z Choose a well ventilated location which is protected from direct sunlight.

z Do not open the device more often than necessary.

z Do not leave the lid open for longer than necessary.

z Clean dust and dirt from the liquefier at regular intervals.

7.2 Switching on the device

a

Caution

Ensure that the objects or goods placed in the device are suitable

for cooling to a temperature of 5 °C.

Do not place any heated foods or beverages into the device. Let

them cool down to the ambient temperature first.

The goods may only be stored in their original packaging or in suit-

able containers.

CoolFreeze MC-045 Cleaning and maintenance

21

I

Note

The goods must be put into the tub provided for this purpose. The

designated temperature of 5 °C can only be ensured if this is done.

➤ Switch on the device using the On/Off switch (fig. 2 1, page 3).

✓ The blue LED lights up.

I

Note

After switching on, the cooler requires approx. 60 sec until the com-

pressor starts up.

7.3 Switching off and storing the device

If you do not intend to use the device for a prolonged period, proceed as fol-

lows:

➤ Disconnect the connecting cable from the battery.

➤ Clean the device (see chapter “Cleaning and maintenance” on page 21).

➤ Open the lid and leave it open.

This prevents odour build-up.

8 Cleaning and maintenance

a

Caution

Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or hard objects during clean-

ing as these can damage the unit.

➤ Switch the device off sufficiently before cleaning it.

➤ Clean the device regularly with a damp cloth once it becomes dirty.

➤ Wipe up the condensation which has accumulated on the bottom as re-

quired.

➤ Wipe the device dry with a cloth after cleaning.

➤ Remove dust, dirt etc. from the air vents regularly using a vacuum clean-

er.
