SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•
Always ensure that the selected power source is suitable for operating the cooler (see
technical data on the rating plate).
•
Only use and transport the cooler in an upright position. An angle of up to 35° is
permissible.
•
Ensure that all connection cables are firmly attached. Only unplug the connection by
pulling on the plug itself, not on the cables.
•
Ensure that ventilation slits are free of dirt and that the refrigeration unit has adequate
ventilation.
•
Never operate the unit with defective connecting cables.
•
Prevent hard or sharp objects from entering the ventilation slits.
•
Protect the electric cooler from rain, moisture and spray water.
•
Do not allow children to operate the unit unsupervised.
•
Never open the cooling circuit.
•
Never touch bare electric wires or contacts.
•
When operating the unit on an AC power source, always be sure that the power source
is protected with an earth-fault switch.
•
Disconnect the unit from the power source when it is not to be used for longer periods
of time.
•
Before disposing an old appliance, please make sure it’s inoperative and safe. Unplug
the appliance and remove or destroy all of the springs, latches, or bolt-locks in order
to avoid the risk of child entrapment. It must be noted that the refrigeration system
contains insulating gases and Refrigerants, which require specialized waste disposal.
The valuable materials contained in a refrigerator can be recycled. Contact your local
waste disposal center for proper disposal of an old appliance and contact your local
authority or your dealer if you have any question. Please ensure that the pipe work
of your refrigerator does not get damaged prior to being picked up by the relevant
waste disposal center, and contribute to environmental awareness by insisting on an
appropriate, any-pollution method of disposal.
SET-UP AND CLEANING
1. Set-up
Place the unit on a solid floor or an appropriate surface where adequate inlet and outlet
ventilation is ensured.
A location in direct sunlight or in the immediate vicinity of heat sources, e.g. heaters, should
be avoided. The cooler should be set up such that it is protected from rain and spray water.
2. Cleaning
Please wipe out the cooler’s containers with a moist cloth prior to the unit’s first usage. Never
use abrasive or caustic agents. Wipe the cleaned surfaces dry with a soft cloth. Use only clear
water to clean the lid’s seal. Rub talcum powder onto this seal from time to time.
Please be careful that water does not penetrate into the electronics located behind the
ventilation grille.
Useful advice:
Do not put open vessels of liquids directly into the cooler but rather always use the cool-
space only to cool closed containers such as bottles, packaged products and so on.
