3. Cleaning
Clean both the inside and outside of the
appliance before putting it into use.
To do so, use a soft towel, lukewarm water and a
non-abrasive detergent. Ensure water does not
enter the rear cover grill or the control panel.
Afterwards, wipe the appliance with a clean towel
and cleanwater, and then wipe it dry.
To avoid damage, do not use soap, soda or
abrasive cleaners.
4. Positioning the appliance
During the refrigeration process, the appliance
gives off heat from the condenser (under the
upper part of the rear cover) into the surrounding air.
The more ventilated the condenser is, the more
effective the refrigeration will be.
For maximum performance the appliance must be
level at all times when operating. If the appliance is
operating in a moving vehicle, the amount of the
refrigeration will be slightly less than if the appliance
is level in a stationary position.This is caused by the
movement of the vehicle impairing the flow of the
refrigerant within the unit.
It is important that the appliance is not directly
exposed to radiated heat (sunlight, radiator, near an
oven, etc.).
5. Using the appliance
The cable for 230 Volt mains connection, the 12V
connection and the gas inlet are located on the rear
cover of the Freezer/Refrigerator (Figure 2).
5.1. Operating from 230 Volt
electrical mains
Make sure the voltage shown on the data plate of the
appliance matches that of the mains voltage to which
you wish to connect the appliance. Pull out the mains
connecting cable and connect it to a receptacle
earthed socket for connection.
When connecting the appliance for the first time, set
the thermostat to maximum; then, after about five
hours, set it back towards minimum, according to your
cooling needs. If you want to use the box as a freezer
then leave the thermostat setting on the maximum.
NB: Plug is provided according to specific
regulations in each country and may be different to
that shown.
