Cabinets and Drawers
The cabinet latches in your Aktiv are different from the ones in your home and more like those on boats as they must stay closed when the vehicle
is in motion. The cabinet doors have buttons to unlock and open them and then lock them once closed. Press the button in and it will pop out
further to unlock, then open and close the cabinet and press the button back in to lock.
The buttons on the drawers work the same way to lock and unlock. Simply slide open when
unlocked and slide inwards to close.
Immediately beneath the galley countertop there is a drawer to
hold silverware and small cooking utensils. (Picture 12.1) The
right panel directly next to it and above refrigerator is not a
drawer and is for maintenance access only. The two drawers
below the silverware drawer provide storage space for food
and larger cooking utensils. There are movable dividers to
optimize the organization or the compartments. There are
additional cabinets above the galley for food and other storage.
It is not recommended to keep large, round, and/or heavy objects in a cabinet unsecured as they may roll
around and apply excessive pressure to the inside of the cabinet doors as you drive. The objects may
shift position with vehicle motion and cause injury when the cabinets are opened. For this reason, Ewin
Hymer Group NA recommends that you are aware of the objects that you store in overhead cabinets.
Directly across from the galley (behind) there is a shelf with a slide up door. This is a great place to store
spices and other food items. (Picture 12.2)
