NOTE
Before starting your new cooling device for the first time, you should clean it
inside and outside with a damp cloth for hygienic reasons (please also refer to
the chapter “Cleaning and maintenance” on page 19).
A few water drops may form inside the cooler if it has been cooling for a
lengthy period. This is normal because the moisture in the air condenses to
water when the temperature in the cooler falls. The cooler is not defective.
Wipe it out with a dry cloth if necessary.
NOTE For coolers with fold in handles
If the handle is folded back or if the cooler is being carried, the lid is locked. You
can only open the lid when the handle is folded forwards.
5.1. ENERGY SAVING TIPS
Choose a well ventilated installation location which is protected against direct sunlight.
If you want to set an increased energy efficiency and a limited cooling capacity for the cooler
unit, use the cooler’s ECO mode.
Allow warm food to cool down first before placing it in the device to keep cool.
Do not open the cooling device more often than necessary.
Do not leave the cooler unit open for longer than necessary.
Remove individual drinks bottles through the bottle hatch, if present.
