The appliance is intended to maintain the temperature of
pre-heated or pre-cooled food and beverages. It is not
designed to warm or cook items from cold.
This unit is intended for use with a 12 Vdc power source
that can provide at least 5 amps of current. DO NOT
attempt to use with any other power source.
Never operate unit in an enclosed space. ALWAYS ensure
that there is adequate ventilation and free flow of air
around the unit, so that air expelled by the fan 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 65°C.
This unit is intended for portable use only; it is not designed
to be built-in or recessed, this would interfere with the

safety hazard.
Use only with the supplied power cord. If the cord becomes

replaces by an authorised Black & Decker repair agent.
