Care and Maintenance
CLEANING YOUR APPLIANCE
POWER FAILURE
•
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your appliance if you
minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need
to take the proper steps to protect your contents.
VACATION TIME
• Short
vacations:
Leave the cooler operating during vacations of less than three (3) weeks.
• Long
vacations:
If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn off the appliance.
Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open
if necessary.
ENERGY SAVING TIP
•
The unit should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances, and out of direct
sunlight.
MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE
•
Remove all items.
•
Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
•
Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.
•
Tape the door shut.
•
Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect the outside of the appli-
ance with a blanket or similar item.
