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:
•
Do not store goods in the refrigerator for the first 12 hours of operation.
•
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 power supply during the journey
–
when using AC power supply at the site of use

Energy saving tips
•
Choose a well ventilated location which is protected from direct sunlight.
•

•
Defrost your refrigerator as soon as a layer of ice forms.

•
Arrange the food in the refrigerator so that air can circulate inside.

Operation at high ambient temperatures
At high ambient temperatures in combination with high levels of humidity, conden-
sation may form on the freezer compartment frame. The freezer compartment is
equipped with a frame heater to reduce condensation on the frame of the freezer
compartment.
The frame heater is switched on continuously in the following operating modes:
•
AC operation
•
DC operation (when the engine of the vehicle is running)
