5. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning your thermoelectric cooler
Before cleaning your appliance (something that should be done regularly), disconnect it by removing the
plug or by pulling the fuse on the circuit.
Before using your appliance for the first time and regularly after that, we recommend that you clean the
inside and outside (front, sides and top) with warm water mixed with a gentle cleaning product. Rinse with
clean water and allow to dry before reconnecting. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
In the event of a pronounced plastic smell, clean the appliance with a mixture of two tablespoons of
bicarbonate of soda, mixed in a ¼ litre of lukewarm water.
When the appliance is switched on for the first time, there may be a residual odour. In that case, run the
appliance empty for a few hours at the coldest possible temperature. The cold will kill any odours.
Moving your thermoelectric cooler
▪
Remove all the bottles.
▪
Securely tape down all loose items inside your thermoelectric cooler.
▪
Turn the leveling legs up to the base to avoid damage.
▪
Tape the door.
▪
Be sure the thermoelectric cooler stays in the upright position during transportation.
In case of power failure
Most power outages are resolved for a short period of time. A 1 or 2 hours shutdown will not affect the
temperatures of your device. To protect your drinks during power outages, consider minimizing the number
of door openings. For very long power cuts, take the necessary measures to protect your drinks.
In the event of a breakdown
Despite the care we take during production, a breakdown can never be totally ruled out. Before contacting
your retailer’s after
-sales department, please check that:
▪
The appliance is properly plugged in
▪
There is not a power cut in progress
▪
The breakdown is not one of those described in the table at the end of this manual
IMPORTANT
: if the power cable supplied is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a service
center approved by the brand or the retailer. In all events, it must be replaced by qualified personnel in
order to avoid any risk of injury.
If these checks reveal nothing, then contact your retailer’s After
-Sales Department.
CAUTION!
Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance or repair work.
