Maintenance

Works on gas components and electrical installation may only be carried out 
by authorised personnel. 

We recommend to contact your Dometic Service 

Centre.

EN 1949 stipulates that the appliance´s gas equipment and it’s associated fume 
system must be inspected after installation and a certificate issued.

Afterwards a qualified technician must inspect according to EN 1949 every two 
years and a certificate issued.

It is the user’s responsibily to arrange for inspections after purchase.

It is recommended that the gas burner be inspected and cleaned as necessary at 
least once a year.

We recommend maintenance following an extended  shutdown of the vehicle.

Product liability 

Product liability of Dometic GmbH does not include damages which may arise from 
faulty operation, improper alterations or intervention in the equipment, adverse 
effects from the environment such as changes in temperature and air humidity, which
may impact the equipment itself or the direct vicinity of the equipment or persons in 
the area.

Environmental hints

Refrigerators manufactured by Dometic GmbH are free of CFC/HCFC and HFC.
Ammonia (a natural compound of hydrogen and nitrogen) is used in the cooling unit 
as a coolant. The non-ozone-hazardous cyclopentan is used as a propellant in the 
manufacture of the PU foam insulation.

Disposal

In order to ensure that the recyclable packaging materials are re-used, these should 
be sent to the usual local collection system.
The appliance should be transferred to a suitable waste disposal company that will 
ensure re-use of the recyclable components and proper disposal of the rest.
For eco-friendly draining of the coolant from all absorber refrigeration units, a suitable

disposal plant should be used.

Energy-saving tips

At an average ambient temperature of approx. 25°C, it is sufficient to operate the 
refrigerator at the middle thermostat setting (for both gas and mains voltage). 

Where possible, always store goods that have previously been cooled. 

Do not position the refrigerator in direct sunlight. 

Constant circulation of air must be supplied to the refrigerator unit. 

Defrost regularly. 

Open the door only for a short time when removing goods from the refrigerator. 

Run the refrigerator for about 12 hours before filling it.
