INPUT TOUCH KEYS
CHECKMARK KEY: Press to enter the setup menu, save values, and exit each particular mode.
RIGHT ARROW KEY: Press to move the Mode indicator light in between modes from left to right.
LEFT ARROW KEY: Press to move the Mode indicator light in between modes from right to left.
ROOM AND FIN SENSOR CABLES: These two cables are interchangeable. They monitor the room temperature and the
temperature of the fins on the A/C unit.
HEATER CABLE: This cable (red tip) heats up the A/C’s temperature sensor when cooling is needed.
POWER CORD: This standard Mini USB cable brings power to your CoolBot and the Jumper.
JUMPER: This connection is not necessary for the CoolBot to work with your air conditioner. The jumper port (on
the blue CoolBot ONLY) enables your CoolBot to be connected to a Wi-Fi network using ONLY an optional radio
module “Jumper” (NOT INCLUDED) and a Data Cable (NOT INCLUDED). Have questions? Please contact us at:
support@storeitcold.com
If you are using the optional JUMPER (NOT INCLUDED) and Data Cable (NOT INCLUDED)
with your CoolBot, please read the CoolBot Pro Instruction Manual instead.

HOW DOES THE COOLBOT WORK WITH YOUR A/C?
The CoolBot uses 2 temperature sensors (ROOM and FINS), the HEATER cable (red tip) and a programmed micro-
controller to direct your air conditioner to operate in such a way as to cool the room to a set temperature in between
33°F/0.5°C and 65°F/18°C without freezing up.
How does it do this?
The HEATER cable (red tip) is keeping your A/C’s temperature sensor warm to make the A/C “think” it is warmer than
the actual room temperature. By doing this, the compressor on your A/C keeps running and cools down the space.
The ROOM and the FINS sensors tell the CoolBot when to turn off the HEATER cable. This will happen when:
• The room temperature reaches the set value. The HEATER will stop and your A/C’s temperature sensor will
cool down and shut the compressor off. Note: The fan of the A/C should keep running.
• The fins of your A/C reach the defrost set point (33°F factory default). The HEATER will stop and your A/C’s
temperature sensor will cool down and shut the compressor off to allow for a defrost cycle. This can happen
even if the room has not reached its set point. Note: The fan of the A/C should keep running.
A slowly blinking Heater Activity Light is completely normal during operation.
It indicates that the CoolBot is “Calling for Cooling” and the HEATER cable is keeping warm.
The defrost cycle does not use heat;
The A/C is defrosted by turning your compressor off and circulating air over the frosted coil.
