Setup
Unpacking
Carefully remove the cooler from its packaging. Inspect the unit for any signs of damage. Retain the packaging for future storage or transport.
Power Connection
The Mobicool MB32 DC operates on a 12V DC power supply, typically found in vehicles. Locate the 12V power outlet (cigarette lighter socket) in your car, truck, or boat. Insert the cooler's 12V adapter plug firmly into the outlet. Ensure the connection is secure to prevent power interruptions.

For optimal cooling performance, it is recommended to pre-chill items before placing them in the cooler. The cooler is designed to maintain the temperature of pre-chilled items and can cool items down, but it is not a refrigerator and its cooling capacity is dependent on the ambient temperature.
Operating Instructions
Loading the Cooler
Open the U-shaped zippered top for full access to the interior. Place your food and beverages inside. The 32-liter capacity allows for a significant amount of items. Ensure the refrigeration unit, located on one side of the interior, is not obstructed for efficient airflow.

Carrying and Portability

The exterior zippered pockets provide convenient storage for the power cord or other small items.

Maintenance
Cleaning
To clean the exterior of the cooler, wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild detergent. The interior features a shiny plastic lining that can be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the cooler in water or use abrasive cleaners.
Storage
When not in use, ensure the cooler is clean and dry. The soft-sided design allows it to be folded for space-saving storage.
Troubleshooting
Cooler Not Cooling
- Check Power Connection: Ensure the 12V adapter is securely plugged into both the cooler and the vehicle's outlet.
- Vehicle Power: Verify that the vehicle's 12V outlet is active (some vehicles require the ignition to be on).
- Obstructions: Make sure the refrigeration unit's vents inside and outside the cooler are not blocked.
- Ambient Temperature: The cooling performance is relative to the ambient temperature. In very hot environments, the cooler may not achieve a significantly low temperature.
Unusual Noise
- A slight fan noise is normal during operation. If the noise is excessive or unusual, check for any obstructions around the fan area.
