Operating Instructions
Preparing Your Meal
Place your food into the stainless steel container(s). Ensure the container is not overfilled to allow for proper heating and lid closure.
Connecting to Power
Select the appropriate power cord:
- For standard wall outlets (110V): Use the provided 110V power cord.
- For vehicle use (12V/24V): Use the provided car power cord.
Open the protective cover on the side of the electric lunch box unit to reveal the power input ports. Insert the chosen power cord firmly into the correct port.

Heating Your Food
Close the lid of the lunch box securely using the side clips. Open the small steam vent on the lid to allow steam to escape during heating.
Plug the power cord into the power source. The indicator light on the front of the unit will illuminate, indicating that heating has begun.
Heating typically takes 20-40 minutes, depending on the food type, quantity, and initial temperature. For best results, stir the food halfway through the heating process if possible.

Troubleshooting
