CARAVAN EQUIPMENT
When you close and press the door of the
refrigerator, the door locks automatically.
While driving this door lock also secures the
door.
Some models have an extra security lock on
the bottom of the refrigerator. To be sure the
door will not open while driving, push the
black security lock over the pin on the door.
Never let children play or hide in the
refrigerator. Children can be trapped
and possibly suffocate.
WINTER USE
When you are going to use the refrigerator
with an outside temperature below 10°C,
install a suitable winter cover, as illustrated.
This cover will protect your refrigerator
against too cold air and makes sure the
refrigerator will still perform optimally.
Make sure you remove the winter
cover again once the temperature is
above 10°C.
CLEANING
It is important to regularly clean the
refrigerator for optimal performance. Clean
the inside with a soft cloth and mild
household cleaner. Use a wet soft cloth for
the outside of the refrigerator. Make sure the
vents on the outside of the vehicle are
always dust-tight.
Never clean your refrigerator with soap
or aggressive, caustic or soda-based
cleaning agents.
The loose parts of the refrigerator are
not suitable for the dishwasher.
Water through the vents may damage
your refrigerator. Therefore install winter
covers before washing your vehicle.
SWITCH OFF REFRIGERATOR
Before defrosting the refrigerator or storing
your vehicle, switch off the refrigerator. Push
the on/off switch, as illustrated, and hold it
for 2 seconds to switch off the refrigerator.
All lights will go out.
DEFROSTING
A layer of ice on the cooling fins will decrease
the cooling capacity and durability of your
refrigerator. Therefore your refrigerator is
provided with an automatic defrost system,
which prevents ice formation.
Despite this system, it is also possible to
manually defrost your refrigerator on
occasion. Remove all food, wrap it tightly in
newspaper and put it on a cold place or in an
insulated bag. Then open the doors. Put dry
towels in the refrigerator to catch the
remaining water. When the refrigerator is
defrosted, thoroughly dry the inside.
Do not speed up the defrosting process
by removing the ice layer with force or
sharp objects or by using a hairdryer.
STORAGE
If you do not expect to use your refrigerator
for a longer period, it is important to
thoroughly empty, defrost and clean the
complete refrigerator. Then install the winter
cover over the vents, to protect your
refrigerator during storage
To prevent odours and mould in the
refrigerator, keep all doors open
during storage.
Rotate the hook at door lock 45 degrees and
lock it in place by using the strike plate, as
illustrated.
