Temperature Control and Modes

The Igloo IE24 features a control dial on the lid for adjusting cooling performance when operating on 230V AC. This dial controls the fan speed and thus the cooling intensity.

• OFF: Turns the cool box off.
• ECO: (Economy Mode) Provides energy-efficient cooling with reduced fan speed and noise. Ideal for maintaining temperature over longer periods or when lower cooling intensity is sufficient. Power consumption is approximately 7 Watts in this mode.
• MAX: (Maximum Cooling Mode) Provides the highest cooling performance with full fan speed. Ideal for rapid cooling or when ambient temperatures are high. Power consumption is approximately 50 Watts in this mode.

When operating on 12V DC, the cool box typically operates at its maximum cooling capacity without a separate control dial setting.

Loading the Cool Box

• For optimal cooling, pre-chill items before placing them in the cool box.
• The 24-liter capacity can accommodate a 1.5-liter bottle upright (up to 350mm height) or approximately 30 x 0.33-liter cans.
• Ensure the lid is securely closed using the ergonomic handle, which also serves as a latch.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Igloo IE24 Electric Cool Box.

Cleaning

• Always unplug the cool box before cleaning.
• The removable lid facilitates easy cleaning of the interior.
• Wipe the interior and exterior surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Ensure the cool box is completely dry before storing or reconnecting to power.

Storage
