cold air (ask your dealer). The covers may be fitted when
the outside temperature is below approx. 10°C and
should be fitted when the temperature is bellow the
freezing point.
We suggest that you fit the winter covers also in the case
that the vehicle is laid up during the winter months.
REGULATING THE TEMPERATURE
The position number refers to fig.1.
It will take a few hours for the refrigerator to reach normal
operating temperature. So we suggest you start it well
in advance of a trip and if possible store it with precooled
foodstuffs.
The temperature of the refrigerator main compartment
is set for all three sources of energy, by means of the
thermostat knob (B). After turning on the refrigerator the
system automatically chooses the mid- position. With
some experience you will soon find a suitable setting.
This normally does not need resetting because the
same thermostat controls the main compartment tem-
perature for any of the three sources of energy.
TRAVEL CATCH
The travel catch is integrated in the handle. Make sure
that the travel catch is engaged when the caravan is on
the move.
FOOD STORAGE
Always keep food in closed containers. Never put hot
food in the refrigerator; allow it to cool first.
Never keep items in the refrigerator which might
give off flammable gases.
The frozen food compartment is intended for the storage
of frozen food and for making ice. It is not suitable for
freezing items of food.
Never put bottles or cans of fizzy drinks in the frozen
food storage compartment as they may burst when
freezing.
Most kinds of frozen food can be stored in the frozen
food compartment for about a month. This period of time
may vary, however, and it is important to follow the
instructions on the individual packages.
ICE MAKING
Fill the ice trays to just below the brim with drinking water
and place them on the bottom of the freezer compart-
ment. Ice will be made more rapidly if the thermostat is
se? at its highest position, but be sure to move back to
normal setting when the ice is formed as the refrigerator
will otherwise become much too cold.
DEFROSTING
Frost will gradually accumulate on the refrigerating sur-
faces. It must not be allowed to grow too thick as it acts
as an insulator and adversely affects refrigerator perfor-
mance. Check the formation of frost regularly every
week and when it gets about 3 mm thick, defrost the
refrigerator.
To defrost the refrigerator, turn it off and remove the ice
trays and all food items, leave the cabinet and freezer
doors open.
Do not try to accelerate defrosting by using any kind of
heating appliance, as this might damage the plastic
surfaces of the refrigerator. Neither should any sharp
objects be used to scrape off the ice.
The defrost water runs from a collector channel to a
receptacle at the rear of the refrigerator where it normally
evaporates.
Heavy frost build up on the freezer plate and the cooling
fins, and a lot of defrost water, move the plastic drain
tube in to a water tight bucket or container. (Access
through the lower ventilation grill on the outside of the
vehicle). As the frost melts, the water will flow into the
container. Replace the drain tube to its original position
after defrosting.
Defrost water in the freezer compartment should be
mopped up with a cloth.
When the ice has melted, wipe the refrigerator dry and
restart it. Place the food items back inside but wait until
the refrigerator is cold before making ice cubes.
CLEANING THE REFRIGERATOR
Clean the inside of the refrigerator regularly to keep it
fresh and hygienic.
Soak a cloth in a solution consisting of a teaspoon of
bicarbonate of soda to half a litre of warm water. Wring
out the cloth and use it to clean the interior of the
refrigerator and its fittings.
Never use detergents, scouring powder, strongly scent-
ed products or wax polish to clean the interior of the
refrigerator as they may damage the surfaces and leave
a strong odour.
The exterior of the refrigerator should be wiped clean
now and again, using a damp cloth and a small quantity
of detergent. But not the door gasket, which should only
be cleaned with soap and water and then thoroughly
dried.
The cooling unit behind the refrigerator should be
cleaned with a brush from time to time, but make sure
that the refrigerator is switched off when doing this.
TURNING OF THE REFRIGERATOR
If the refrigerator is not to be used for some time:
1.
Set the switch (A), fig. 1, to "OFF".
2.
Shut off any on-board valve in the gas line to the
refrigerator.
3.
Pull out the plug from the wall socket.
4.
Empty the refrigerator. Defrost and clean it as de-
scribed earlier. Leave the doors of the refrigerator
and frozen food compartment ajar.
5.
When the vehicle is laid up for a long period of time
(e.g. during the winter months), we suggest fitting the
winter covers on to the grills.
IF THE REFRIGERATOR FAILS TO WORK
Check the following points before calling a service tech-
nician:
1.
that the green AES LED goes on, when the switch
(A) is set to "ON" (12 V must be available).
2.
when mains are connected but the refrigerator stays
in gas operation: Is the refrigerator correctly connec-
ted and is the fuse (240 V) intact?.
3.
is the 12 V fuse intact?
4.
Disconnect the wall plug, and the 12 V wires
before servicing.
