Setup

Unpacking

Carefully remove the cooler from its packaging. Inspect the cooler for any signs of damage during transit. Retain the packaging for future storage or transport if needed.

Placement

Place the cooler on a stable, level surface. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the unit, especially near the fan and vents, to allow for proper heat dissipation. Avoid placing the cooler in direct sunlight or near heat sources.

Power Connection

The Mobicool Q40 ACDC supports two power inputs:

  • 12V DC: For use in vehicles (cars, trucks, boats, RVs). Connect the 12V plug to the vehicle's cigarette lighter socket.

Ensure the correct power cord is used for the respective power source. The cooler features a convenient cable housing in the lid for storing unused cables.

Operating Instructions

Initial Operation

Once connected to a power source, the cooler will begin to operate. For optimal cooling performance, it is recommended to activate the highest cooling level. Note that thermoelectric coolers are designed to cool items and maintain temperature, not to freeze them like a conventional refrigerator.

Loading the Cooler

For best results, pre-chill items before placing them in the cooler. Arrange items to allow for air circulation. The cooler is designed to hold 2-liter bottles upright, offering flexible storage options.
