[. . . ] Manufacturers' food storage recommendations should be strictly adhered to. Refer to relevant instructions for food and drink storage under point 13. Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the appliance yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or more serious malfunctioning. [. . . ] In no circumstances must the plug be used without a correct fuse cover/carrier fitted. If the plug supplied on the mains lead is not suitable for the socket in your home, it should be cut off and disposed of safely, or destroyed, to avoid any possible shock hazard resulting from the plug being inserted into a 13 amp socket elsewhere in the house. General guide to fitting any plug Ensure the lengths of wire inside the plug are prepared correctly. Connections should be firmly made after all conductor strands are entered into the terminal posts. When preparing the cable ends take care not to damage the outer sheath, or the insulation surrounding the inner conductors. Other versions Your refrigerator has a 3-wire mains lead which is intended for connection to a 3-pin plug and a properly earthed socket outlet. IMPORTANT: The wires in the mains lead of this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code: GREEN-AND-YELLOW: EARTH BLUE: NEUTRAL BROWN: LIVE As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond with the coloured markings identifiying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: the wire which is coloured GREENAND-YELLOW must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol or coloured green or green-and-yellow. The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured black. The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured red. 28 GB WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED!In other cases, the circuit to which the refrigerator is connected should be fitted with a 5 amp fuse. Only after approximately 1 hour will the unit become noticably cool (frost on evaporator). The temperature can be regulated using the thermostat knob: '0'=off, 17 increasing degrees of coolness. After sufficient cooling (approximately 5 hours), the thermostat position can be set to a lower temperature, between 2-5. 1) Turn thermostat knob (A) anticlockwise to position '0' (a slight resistance will be felt just before this position). D/C operation Do not use any additional form of energy (mains/gas). A safety fuse must be installed in the electricity supply between battery and refrigerator in a duct. cable lengths Cable cross section 2. 5 mm2 4. 0 mm2 6. 0 mm2 12 V until until until 2. 5 m 4. 0 m 6. 0 m 24 V 5m 8m 12 m It is not necessary to consider the polarity when connecting the unit. Check that the battery voltage corresponds with the line-voltage data on the cooling unit type-plate. If no battery is used independently of the vehicle, the cooling unit is only to be used when the vehicle is in motion, since, when the engine is not running, the battery can discharge to such an extent that the engine will not restart. Recommendation: Before a journey, pre-cool the unit using the supply voltage. 29 GB To turn on The car plug fitted to the connecting cable is to be plugged into the socket/cigar lighter (car plugs are not supplied with every model). When using battery operation, the cooling performance is not thermostatically regulated, i. e. When knob (A) is ineffective or if the temperature is unnecessarily too low: Turn off unit Pull out plug from socket. 8. [. . . ] 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. If no liquid movement is evident on shaking the cylinder, then the gas cylinder is empty. 33 GB are several operating methods being used simultaneously?Indicate the type of defect, type of appliance, product number and serial number (on the type plate at the back of the unit). We accept responsibility for the perfect condition of the unit, the guarantee being in accordance with our guarantee conditions. 18. [. . . ]
