The Hi-Gear 45 Litre Cooler excels in situations requiring flexible temperature control for provisions. On a road trip, you can effortlessly plug it into your car's 12V socket to keep drinks chilled for the journey, then switch to 240V mains at your campsite or holiday rental to maintain temperature overnight. Its hot function is particularly useful for keeping pre-cooked meals warm for a picnic or preventing takeaways from getting cold on the way home. For example, packing drinks and sandwiches in one section using the internal dividers, while keeping fruit or snacks separate. The 16°C below ambient cooling ensures beverages remain refreshingly cool, though it won't freeze items. Remember to always pre-chill items before placing them in the cooler for optimal performance, especially if using the passive cooling feature for short periods.
Placement: Ensure the cooler is placed on a flat, stable surface, away from direct sunlight or heat sources, allowing for adequate ventilation around the unit.
Power Connection: Select the appropriate power cable (12V in-car or 240V mains) and connect it securely to the cooler's power input.
Power Source: Plug the cable into your vehicle's 12V socket or a standard 230-240V mains outlet.
Function Selection: Use the power control dial to switch between the 'Cool' or 'Hot' function as desired.

Cleaning: Always unplug the cooler before cleaning. Wipe the interior and exterior surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners or submerge the unit in water.
Drying: Ensure the cooler is thoroughly dry before storing to prevent mildew or odors.
Storage: Store the cooler in a cool, dry place when not in use. Leave the lid slightly ajar to allow for air circulation.
