Operating Instructions

Loading Contents

• Place items that need to stay coldest at the bottom.
• Use block ice for longer cooling duration, or cubed ice for faster cooling.
• Fill the cooler as much as possible to minimize air space, which helps maintain cold temperatures.
• Utilize the built-in cup holders on the lid for beverages to prevent spills.

Transporting the Cooler

• Extend the durable tow handle for easy pulling on its heavy-duty 6-inch wheels.
• For lifting, use the swing-up handles located on the sides of the cooler. Ensure a firm grip, especially when the cooler is full.

Using the Have-A-Seat Lid

• When the lid is closed, it can support up to 250 lbs, providing a convenient seating option.
• Ensure the lid is securely closed before using it as a seat.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Clean the cooler with mild soap and water after each use.
• Draining: Use the leakproof channel drain plug to easily drain melted ice and water.
• Drying: Let the cooler dry completely before storing to prevent mold and mildew.
• Storage: Store in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

• Ice Melts Too Quickly: Ensure the lid is securely latched. Pre-chill the cooler before use. Minimize opening the lid. Use a higher ice-to-content ratio.
