Use for a long cooling time
DE
If you observe the following instructions on the use of your Petromax Cool Box, you will achieve an
EN
optimum and long cooling performance during your outdoor adventures, subject to the environmen-
tal conditions. Please note that any non-compliance of the following points may shorten the
FR
cooling performance of your Cool Box significantly.
1. The day before use, cool down your Cool Box as low as possible by filling it with ice or storing it at
a cool place (basement, garage, etc.).
2. Use large ice blocks to cool the food. The larger the ice blocks, the longer the cooling time will be.
3. Make sure, that the valve of the integrated outlet system is tightly closed before filling the cool box.
4. Put the ice on top to increase the cooling performance, as cooled air flows downwards.
5. As beverages / food at room temperature strongly reduce the cooling time, cool them down as low
as possible in the refrigerator before putting them into the Cool Box.
6. Each lid opening will influence the cooling performance, thus open the Cool Box consciously and as
sparingly as possible. The more often you open the box, the lower the cooling performance will be.
7. Keep the Cool Box out of sunlight and only place it in shadow. Direct sunlight will shorten the
cooling time.
8. In case you need to refill ice during a long stay, let melting water drain through the outlet beforehand.
9. Always keep the Cool Box upright during transport or storage.
Instructions on cleaning and storage
To achieve the best possible life time and functioning of your Cool Box, you should pay attention to
sufficient and regular maintenance. After your adventure, you can simply drain the melting water
through the provided valve. Afterwards, clean the Cool Box with a wet cloth from the inside and outside.
Do not use harsh or corrosive detergents, as they might damage the material as well as the seals of
the Cool Box. Make sure that the ventilation openings are free of dust and dirt. The seals at the lid and
outlet system should be greased as needed. Thoroughly dry the Cool Box from the inside and outside
and store it upright at a well-ventilated and dry place with the lid and outlet system being slightly or
completely opened to let possible residual moisture escape.
