Tips for using the refrigerator optimally
When the temperature in the interior of the refrigerator e4 °C, the shelf life
of goods that spoil quickly cannot be guaranteed. To attain an optimal cooling
capacity in the interior of the refrigerator, observe the following information:
•
Protect the interior of the vehicle from warming up excessively (e.g. sunshades in
the windows, air conditioner).
•
Protect the refrigerator from direct sunlight (e.g. sunshades in the windows).
•
Voltage fluctuations can have a negative effective on the cooling capacity. Check
the temperature in the interior of the refrigerator regularly
– when using DC current during the journey
– when using AC current at the site of use
NOTE
•
Before starting your new refrigerator for the first time, you should
clean it inside and outside with a damp cloth for hygienic reasons.
•
The cooling performance can be affected by:
– the ambient temperature (e.g. when the vehicle is exposed to
direct sunlight)
– the amount of food to be conserved
– how often you open the door
•
When using the refrigerator for the first time, there may be a mild
odour which will disappear after a few hours. Air the living space
well.
•
Park the vehicle so that it is level, especially when starting up and
filling the refrigerator before setting off on a journey.
•
Battery management systems switch off the power supply to the
refrigerator as soon as the vehicle engine is switched off for longer
than 30 minutes. The refrigerator requires a constant DC power
supply to operate. If your vehicle has a battery management system,
deactivate it.
