P14M Owner's Manual

FEATURES

• Employs thermoelectric technology using the latest Peltier devices.
• Environmentally friendly. Does not contain any CFC’s or polluting coolants.
• High performance with low power draw. Cools to approximately 40F°/22C° below outside temperature. Heats to approximately 135°F/57°C inside.
• Reliable and virtually wear free. Apart from the fan, the thermoelectric cooling unit does not have any moving parts.
• Optional Kolton Power Pack permits use of cooler in your house or hotel, from any 110/120 volt AC wall outlet.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

• Ensure the slider switch is fully to the right for cooling mode, and then just plug in your cooler into the 12 volt accessory receptacle in your vehicle. The Green LED indicates cooling mode. The current consumed is about 4.5 amps. When your vehicle is running and the electrical system is operating properly, your cooler will operate continuously without discharging the battery. When the battery is not being charged, the cooler should not be operated for more than 4 hours.
• The cooler can be operated continuously from a 110/120 volt AC wall outlet using the optional Kolton Power Pack.
• For best results, precool your unit and the food and beverages before placing them in your cooler. If the cooler is loaded with warm material, it will require at least 12 hours to cool the contents.
• The cooler can be operated in the heating mode, by switching the slider switch all the way to the left, the Red LED will light to indicate heating mode. This should be restricted to only 45 minutes for food safety considerations and to prevent damage to the unit.The slider switch on the control panel slides:– right for cooling (Green Light)– left for heating (Red Light) 45 minutes max.– centre position for OFF. (No light)

The USB plug just above the power cord connection point will provide 5V DC power to any device with a USB plug. This can charge your cameras, cell phones or other such devices. This USB plug is only active when the cooler is powered from a 12 volt source. It is unaffected by any position of the slider switch.

MAINTENANCE

• Keep cords and cigarette lighter sockets clean at all times. Small tobacco or dirt particles in the socket or the plug may affect performance.
• The motor, fan and control panel vents should be cleaned periodically. While the unit is unplugged, clean the fan blades and motor shaft using a paint brush or other soft bristled brush. Remove all hair, dirt, or dust that may have accumulated.
• To clean, wipe the inside with a warm damp cloth or sponge. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. A mild soap should be sufficient, but if stains or odours remain, household bleach or baking soda may be added to the washing solution. Keep the lid open for several hours after cleaning to allow the interior to thoroughly dry and to prevent odours from forming in the cooler.
• For long periods of storage, a small container of baking soda or charcoal, placed inside, will eliminate objectionable odours.

PRECAUTIONS

• The cooler is designed to operate on 12 volts direct current only. Do not attempt to connect the cooler directly to 110/120 volt AC wall socket without using the optional Koolatron Power Pack.
• Do not use the cooler with any other AC adapter device other than the optional Koolatron Power Pack. Failure to do so may invalidate warranty and pose a hazard.
• Do not operate the cooler in direct sunlight or in hot enclosed areas such as automobile trunks. The cooler generates heat and must have free air circulation to perform properly.
• Do not block the ventilation area of the control panel. Free flow of air is necessary for effective heat transfer. Regularly check the panel for dirty or clogged vents.
• The aluminium fins in the cooler will be hot when used in the heating mode. Exercise care to avoid injury. The aluminium fins in the control panel area will be hot after extended use in the cold mode. Allow time for cooling before removing panel.
• For safe handling of food, the cooler should not be used as a food warmer for extended periods of time.
• Ensure that the cigarette lighter socket is clean. · Push the plug firmly into the lighter socket to ensure good contact
