CLEANING THE COMPRESSOR / FAN COMPARTMENT
The compressor and fan are located behind the front louvers of the appliance.
DISCONNECT THE UNIT’S POWER SUPPLY BEFORE
REMOVING THE FRONT LOUVER to avoid accidents that
may be caused by oscillation of the blade of the fan motor.

3. Lift the front louver panel, then pull it toward you, being careful not to disconnect any attached wiring.
4. Clean the area with a damp cloth, then dry it.
5. Replace the louver panel and screw it back into place.

DEFROSTING
It is not necessary to defrost your refrigerator. This is done automatically, using a forced-air system.
There is a defrost water evaporation pan in the compartment below the main cabinet. A hot gas line from
the compressor passes through this pan and evaporates the water. Check occasionally that the drain
hose is always inside the evaporation pan.
SECURITY LOCK
Your unit is provided with a lock and key combination. The lock may be found on the door frame, just
below the door handle. The keys are located inside the plastic bag that contains the
Instruction Manual
.
After a key has been used, remove it and put it in a secure place for safekeeping.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
DO NOT DISCONNECT UNIT AT NIGHT. Not only will contents most likely suffer damage, but
reconnecting next day will increase energy consumption.
DO NOT keep the door open any longer than necessary.
DO NOT OVERLOAD UNIT. Allow free air flow inside refrigerator.
DO NOT PLACE HEAVY AND/OR LARGE OBJECTS INSIDE UNIT.
It is important not to block air flow inside the refrigerator. Remember that it is designed exclusively for
cooling vaccines, pharmaceuticals and other medical specimens.
The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing
appliances and out of direct sunlight.
Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
DO NOT PLACE FOODS IN REFRIGERATOR. Not only will you risk contamination of medical
products, but the forced air system will absorb moisture from the food.
