3. Cleaning

Clean the refrigerator thoroughly at intervals, as
necessary. Remove the shelves; these, parts,
as well as the cabinet interior and the door should be
washed with a warm solution of sodium bi-carbonate.
Finally wipe over with a cloth rinsed in warm water
only, and dry with a clean cloth. Do not wash any
plastic parts in water that is more than hand warm, and
do not expose them to dry heat. The outside of the
cabinet should be wiped down regularly with a clean,
damp cloth.
NEVER USE STRONG CHEMICALS OR ABRASIVE
CLEANING MATERIALS ON ANY PART OF THE
CABINET.

4. Positioning the appliance

When first using this refrigerator please consider the
following points:
ENSURE REFRIGERATOR IS LEVEL
THE PIPEWORK AT THE BACK GETS HOT IN USE
THE REFRIGERATOR HAS NO 'MOTOR' AND IS
THEREFORE VIRTUALLY SILENT
ALLOW AT LEAST 3 HRS. FOR SIGNS OF
COOLING
During the refrigeration process, the appliance
gives off heat from the condenser (under the
upper part of the rear cover) into the surrounding air.
The more ventilated the condenser is, the more
effective the refrigeration will be.
The other condition for satisfactory operation is that
the appliance is levelled. This could be checked by
placing a glass of water on top of the appliance.
It is important that the appliance is not directly
exposed to radiated heat (sunlight, radiator, near an
oven, etc.).
4.1. Installation instructions
The refrigerator is equipped with an electrically heated
absorption cooling unit which is virtually silent in
operation.
Inside the refrigerator you will find a plastic bag
containing 4 small wheels. Carefully place the
refrigerator on its back and insert the pins of the
wheels into the metal holders located on the underside
of the refrigerator (Fig. 2.). In this way you can always
move your refrigerator to where it is needed.
Figure 2.
Do not use the refrigerator without installing
the wheels, because in this case there will be
no proper ventillation!

5. Using the appliance

To start the refrigerator connect the plug to the
socket outlet. The empty refrigerator needs about
6-7 hours at normal ambient temperature to reach
the proper temperature
compartment.

5.1. Initial operation

The device must be plugged into a properly
earthed socket.
The miniBar starts automatically with a self-test.
If the electronics do not detect any fault, the LED
for the interior lighting illuminates for 2 seconds
after approxiametly 10 seconds. If a fault is
detected, the illumination changes to a
continuous flashing light. If this occurs, please
consult your authorised Customer Service.

5.2. Temperature regulation

The miniBar is fitted with a fully automatic electronic
temperature regulator. It is not needed to set the
temperature of the storage compartment manually.

5.3. Cooling unit control (CUC)

The electronic checks the function after every
defrosting period (every 24 hours) by measuring
the evaporator temperature drop. If it registers a
problem the refrigerator will shut down and stops
cooling. If this happens you should check whether
the refrigerator has been overloaded, that the door
was properly closed, that the cooling unit
ventilation is correct and that the refrigerator is
levelled. After checking, unplug the refrigerator at
least for 10 seconds and plug in again. This resets
the unit and it will function again. If no sign of
cooling there is a problem and you should then
contact Dometic service.

6. Ice cubes

Fill the ice tray up to 4/5 with drinking water, cover
with the lid and place the closed ice tray on the ice-
tray shelf. Wipe off any excess water to prevent the
ice tray from freezing to the surface.
To remove the cubes from the ice tray, hold it under
running water. Remove the lid with the ice cubes
from the ice tray and the ice cubes can now be
taken out easily.
7. Useful suggestion
Do not overfill the appliance. If possible, always
store pre-cooled food and/or drinks. It is advisable
to leave some space between the products in the
cabinet to ensure efficient and even cooling. If the
shelves are packed too tightly there may be
unacceptable temperature variations.
