5 OPERATION
CAUTION! To avoid contamination of food.
• Food may only be stored in its original packaging or in suitable containers.
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".
• 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.

5.1 Energy saving tips

• Choose a well ventilated installation location which is protected against direct sunlight.
• Allow warm food to cool down first before placing it in the device to keep cool.
• Do not leave the cooler unit open for longer than necessary.
• Remove individual drinks bottles through the bottle hatch, if present.
• Opening the lid for long periods can cause a significant increase of the temperature in the compartments
of the appliance.
• Clean regularly surfaces that can come in contact with food and accessible drainage systems.
• If the refrigerating appliance is left empty for long periods, switch off, defrost, clean, dry, and leave the door
open to prevent mould developing within the appliance.

5.2 Using the cooler

NOTICE! Risk of damage
• Ensure that the objects placed in the cooler are suitable for cooling or heating (with the
additional heating feature) to the selected temperature.
• Ensure that food or liquids in glass containers are not excessively refrigerated. Liquids expand
when they freeze and can therefore destroy the glass containers.
• Ensure that your cooler is well ventilated so that any heat created can dissipate. Otherwise
proper functioning cannot be ensured. It is especially important not to cover the air vents.
