12. Food and drink storage
- Foodstuffs and drinks should always be stored sealed in the unit. Thus, changes in taste and smell are
avoided.
- Food and drink should be placed in the cooler so as to allow air to circulate freely.
- Do not place hot food or drinks in the cooler!
- Under no circumstances should inflammable liquids and/or gases be stored in the cooler. Explosion
hazard!
13. Defrosting and measures for prolonged periods of disuse
A build-up of too much ice on the evaporator hinders cooling of the unit and thus reduces effectiveness.
Therefore, it is recommended to defrost the mobile cooler as soon as an approximately 5-mm thick layer of ice
has formed. This is done by turning off the unit and removing any food or drink therein. Never use heated
appliances, heaters, etc., to speed up the defrosting process! If necessary, a cloth dipped in warm water can be
placed on the unit to help the defrosting process. After defrosting, mop up the defrosted water with a clean cloth
and clean the cooler containers as described in chapter 4.
Should the unit be out of operation for a prolonged period, turn off unit and remove contents. After defrosting,
the cooler should be cleaned carefully and dried.
To avoid any unpleasant smells forming in the cooler, the lid should be left slightly open.
14. Measures after prolonged periods of disuse
Should the refrigerator not function correctly after being switched on, place the unit upside down WITHOUT ANY
CONNECTING POWER SUPPLY. After a few minutes, return the refrigerator to its correct position and switch
on again.
Should the unit still not function correctly, repeat the process several times.
15. Maintenance
Changing the gas filter: the cellulose gas filter is situated at the back in the gas connection piece. When it
becomes necessary to replace the gas filter, remove the filter from the duct and replace it with a new one. Any
other maintenance and repair works, especially those relating to the cooling aggregate and the gas-burner
system, may only be undertaken by authorized customer service points.
16. After-sales service
Should a problem arise with the unit, please check the following before contacting a customer service:
- is the unit suitably placed and is it well ventilated?
- is the unit placed on a flat surface?
- does the socket supply current?
- is the connecting cable damaged in any way?
- is there a loose connection?
- has the plug been properly plugged into the socket?
- has the electro-thermostat been correctly adjusted?
- in the case of gas operation, has the safety pilot knob (regulator) been pressed down long enough?
- has the regulating knob been turned to the correct position?
- is the gas cylinder or pressure regulating valve open?
- does the liquid gas cylinder still contain gas? If no liquid movement is evident on shaking the cylinder, then
the gas cylinder is empty.
- are several operating methods being used simultaneously?
- have warm foodstuffs been stored in the cooler?
- was too large a quantity of food or drink stored at any one time? Food and drink should be stored as to allow
free air circulation. Do not use paper or plastic plates. Always keep containers for liquids sealed.
