TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Fresh and frozen foods should not be stored right  

  beside each other in the cabinet. Doing so may  
  cause a fresh food to freeze and/or spoil.

When the appliance is being set at 0° or lower  

  temperatures, do not store glass bottles or  
  liquids such as beer, milk, juices or soft drinks in  
  the unit as these may freeze and shatter.

Items such as fruit and vegetables should be  

  stored closer to the top of the cabinet as this  
  area is normally slightly warmer. This will reduce  
  the risk of spoiling and ensures that damage is  
  not caused by being crushed by heavier items.

To improve the efficiency of your fridge/freezer  

  it is better to have the cabinet as full as possible  
  at all times. A full cabinet will provide lower  
  power consumption over 24 hours than a half  
  empty one. When the cabinet is full there is  
  little air space between the goods so the cold  
  air is trapped, but when there is lots of air the  
  coldness cannot be captured and held. On a trip  
  it is a good idea to replace finished products  
  with bottles of water or similar. This will fill the  
  empty spaces and allow the coldness to remain  
  within the cabinet.

Frequent door opening will allow warm air to  

  enter the cabinet. Keep the number of times you  
  open the door to a minimum where possible.

When located in the rear of a car or trailer,  

  it is recommended that the appliance be kept  
  away from direct sunlight to reduce the risk  
  of increased heat. It should also be provided  
  with suitable ventilation to guarantee efficient  
  power consumption and performance. You must  
  remember that when a vehicle is parked in the  
  sun on a day where the ambient temperature  
  is +30°C, the interior of the vehicle can reach  
 +55°C.

Your fridge/freezer will be delivered cleaned from 
the factory – you nevertheless should clean prior 
to initial use. Take a cloth which has been slightly 
moistened with lukewarm water. Pay attention 
that no water drops into the seals and possibly 
damages the electronics. Dry off the fridge/freezer 
with a cloth after cleaning. Clean your fridge/
freezer periodically and as soon as it is dirty.

ATTENTION:

DO NOT

 use solvents or agents with sand or acid  

  parts for cleaning your fridge/freezer.

DO NOT

 use brushes, graters or hard sharp tools  

  to clean your fridge/freezer.

Before cleaning, the power cable should  

  be disconnected and the fridge/freezer 
 switched 

OFF

.

Clean the fridge/freezer inside and out with a  

  damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, use some sodium  
  bicarbonate dissolved in lukewarm water.

After washing, rinse with clean water and  

  dry carefully.

When storing your fridge/freezer for a long  

  period of time, 

DO NOT

 fully close the lid. This  

  will prevent mould and odours.
