COOLMATIC R series
Defrosting the refrigerator
Humidity can form frost in the interior of the refrigerator or on the vaporiser.
This reduces the cooling capacity. Defrost the device in good time to avoid
this.
Caution
Never use hard or pointed tools to remove ice or to loosen objects
which have frozen in place.
To defrost the refrigerator, proceed as follows:
➤ Take out the contents of the refrigerator.
➤ Place them in another cooling device to keep them cool, if necessary.
➤ Set the knob to 0.
➤ If your device has a cold accumulator (models RPA, RSA):
Disconnect the device from the power supply.
The cold accumulator can delay defrosting.
➤ Leave the door open.
➤ Wipe off the water resulting from defrosting or – if present – empty the col-
lecting tray. If your device has a water drain, drain the thawed water off.
Switching off and storing the refrigerator
If you do not intend to use the refrigerator for a long time, proceed as follows:
➤ Turn the knob to 0.
➤ Disconnect the power cable from the battery or pull the DC cable plug out
of the rectifier.
➤ Clean the refrigerator (see Chapter "Cleaning and maintenance" on
page 38).
➤ Put the lock in the VENT position.
This prevents odours from building up.
Securing the refrigerator door
You can prevent the refrigerator door from being opened inadvertently.
➤ Put the locking mechanism on the top of the door to position 1
(5 1, Page 4).
