CAUTIONS
• This unit is intended for use with the supplied 12 volt DC power source (converter)
that can provide at least 4 amperes of current. DO NOT attempt to use with
any power source that provides less than 4 amperes at 12 volts DC.
• NEVER operate unit in an enclosed space. ALWAYS ensure that there is adequate
ventilation and free flow of air around the unit, so that warm air expelled by
the fan (in the rear of the unit) is effectively dissipated.
• When operating the unit in a vehicle or boat cabin, adequate ventilation must be
provided by an air conditioning system or open window. In a car with windows
up, air temperatures can reach 150 °F.
• This unit is not designed to be built-in or recessed - this would interfere with the
unit’s air dissipation system, and could cause a fire or other safety hazard.
• Use only with the supplied power cord. If cord becomes worn or damaged,
discontinue use and call Vector Customer Service Department for an authorized
replacement.
• Never allow the cooler/warmer or AC/DC converter to be immersed in water
or other liquid. This will void the warranty.
• Make sure the AC/DC converter is connected to 110 V AC, 60 Hz power.
• Do not leave plugged in. Disconnect AC/DC converter when not in use, or when
cooler is turned OFF.
