CONSUMPTION, ONLY OPEN THE LID WHEN STRICTLY NECESSARY.
The VC110SDD refrigerator has a single compartment specifically for the storage of vaccines, see
Section 4. The refrigerator compartment is designed to maintain a stable temperature between
+2
o
C and +8
o
C across an ambient temperature range from +5
o
C to +43
o
C . There are no points
within the vaccine compartment that drop below freezing and thus no danger of freezing vaccines.
The refrigerator contains stacking baskets designed to make stock management easier and
encourage air circulation within the compartment.
Do not remove these baskets and do not store vaccines outside of these baskets.
The wire baskets encourage the circulation of air by maintaining a small gap between the basket
and the cabinet wall. Good air circulation will help the refrigerator to maintain an even temperature
throughout the compartment. In order to save energy, try to keep the lid open for as short a time
as possible.
Stock management
Allocate a certain space for each different type of vaccine, so that they may be located rapidly.
Check the vaccine labels and adhere to any special requirements.
Always use before expiry date (store older vaccines on top).
Store the most frequently used vaccines in the top baskets for easy access.
WARNING: ALWAYS FOLLOW THESE VACCINE STORAGE GUIDELINES
