WARNING: For the operation of the mini fridge in a car, it is necessary to use the car engine. Do not leave the mini fridge running in the car with the engine switched off.

Internal Temperature: The temperature inside the CECOTEC BOLERO MINICOOLING 10L BAHAMAS PAT 1 will not immediately reach the desired temperature when it is switched on. It usually takes about 2 hours. The minimum temperature varies according to the ambient temperature.

Cool Down: For faster cooling, store cold drinks in the mini fridge. The colder the ambient temperature, the cooler the mini fridge will be. When the ambient temperature is 25 °C, it may be cooled down to about 10 °C.

Heating: The appliance is designed to keep items warm, not to heat up cold items. After switching the mini fridge off, hot items will maintain their temperature for several hours if the door is properly closed. Take care to avoid burns when using the heating mode. When the room temperature is 25 °C, it can heat up to a certain temperature (refer to technical specifications).

Note: The green indicator light shows that Cooling mode is enabled, while the red light indicates Heating mode is enabled. Ensure the mode switch is in the ‘off’ position for at least 30 minutes before switching between modes.

Warning:

Never use the mini fridge in a car with a voltage of 24V, or in a house with a voltage other than 220-240V, as this will cause malfunctions and fire.

This product should not be used near water and at high temperatures to avoid malfunctions, electric shock, and other accidents.

Transforming or tampering with the mini fridge and power cord will result in malfunction and fire.

In summer, do not place the mini fridge inside the car or in the boot and other high temperature places to avoid appliance failure.

When using the appliance in the car, be sure to switch on the engine and, if the engine is switched off, disconnect the power cable.

Unplug the power cord when the appliance is not to be used for a long period of time.

Do not block the air inlet or drain hole, as the appliance will not cool down or heat up.

Follow these steps for cleaning and maintenance:

1. Make sure to unplug the appliance after use and before storing it.

2. Store the mini fridge in a cool, dry place. Always make sure it is completely dry before storing it.

3. Always let the mini fridge dry completely with the door open before storing it. Keep the door open while the appliance reaches room temperature to avoid moisture and mould formation inside the appliance.

Avoid direct cooling of hot objects.

The CECOTEC BOLERO MINICOOLING 10L BAHAMAS PAT 1 works on a thermoelectric system. The difference in temperature between the inside and outside, or frequent opening of the door, will cause interior condensation or frost formation, which is a normal physical occurrence. It is not recommended to keep the door open or to open or close it frequently. Do not attempt to directly cool down hot items.

To avoid food contamination with your CECOTEC BOLERO MINICOOLING 10L BAHAMAS PAT 1, please follow these instructions:

Prolonged opening of the door can lead to a significant increase in the temperature of the appliance compartment.

Clean regularly the surfaces that might be in contact with food and accessible evacuation systems.

Keep raw meat and fish in the refrigerator compartments so they are not in contact with each other or do not drip on each other.

The “two-star” compartments are suitable for storing pre-frozen food, storing or making ice cream, and making ice cubes.

Compartments with “one, two, or three stars” are not suitable for freezing fresh food.

If the refrigerator appliance remains empty for a long period of time, unplug it by defrosting, cleaning, drying, and leaving the door open to prevent the development of mould inside the appliance.
