Dometic refrigerators work according to the absorption principle. 
Due to physical reasons, an absorption system responds slowly to changes
made on the thermostat controller, or a loss in cooling through opening the
door, or storing food.  The devices fulfill the cooling performance require-
ments of the Climatic Class SN acc. to EN/ISO 7371 in the temperature range
of +10°C to 32°C ambient temperature.

Underneath the fascia is a knurled knob for
adjusting the brightness (see item above)

The cooling unit’s performance is influenced by ambient temperatures.

Please select the medium setting for ambient temperatures b15°C
and +25°C. The unit operates within its optimum performance range. 

Both models are equipped with a frame heating
(12VDC/3,5W) around the freezer compartment. During
summer months with high temperatures and humidity the
metal frame may have water droplets forming. To evapo-
rate these droplets switch on the frame heating with
switch (A).  The LED (B) indicates that the heating is on.

The frame heating will draw 12V DC power continuously. 
Observe LED (B) when the engine is shut off while parking the vehicle.
Shut off the frame heating.

Storing food

 

Switch the refrigerator on approx. 12 hours before filling it.

 

Always store pre-cooled foods in the refrigerator.  Make sure that the food is well 

cooled when it is bought and also when transporting it. Use insulated cooling bags.

 

When taking food out of the refrigerator only open the refrigerator door very briefly. 

Foods must be packed - best of all in closed containers - and stored separately from

each other. 

 

Allow foods that have been warmed up to cool down before storing.  

 

Store quickly perishable foods directly next to the cooling fins.
