SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WHEN STORING
FOODSTUFFS
No refrigerator of any kind can improve the
quality of the food; refrigerators can only
maintain the food’s quality for a short duration
as from the time of storing it.
Please observe the following particular
conditions for storing food in a refrigerator that
is built into a vehicle:
• A change in the climatic conditions such as
temperature fluctuations.
• High temperatures inside the vehicle when
it is closed and parked in direct sunlight
(temperatures are possible up to 50°C).
• A refrigerator built in behind a window and
exposed to direct sunlight.
• Storing the products too soon, i.e. shortly
after starting up the appliance for use.
• Use of the refrigerator during travel with the
power supply of 12v DC.
• Fluctuations in the power supply at the
parking place when using the energy type
230v AC (mains voltage).
Under these particular conditions the
refrigerator cannot guarantee reaching the
temperature needed for perishables.
Perishables include all products with a
stipulated use-by date and a minimum storage
temperature of +4°C or less, especially for
meat, poultry, fish, sausages, pre-packed
foods.
• Pack raw and cooked foods separately (e.g.
in containers, aluminium foil, etc.).
• Only remove the outside packaging of single
packs if all the necessary information, e.g.
the use-by date, can also be read on the
single packs.
• Please observe the instructions and
information regarding the use-by date on
the outside packaging of the food.
• Do not leave cooled goods outside the
refrigerator for too long.
• Place the foods with the next use-by date at
the front, accordingly.
• Pack away any left-over food and eat at the
first opportunity.
• Wash your hands before and after handling
any food.
• Regularly clean the inside of the refrigerator.
• Please observe section Cleaning of this
instruction.
The cooling unit’s performance is
influenced by ambient temperatures.
Please select the medium setting
for ambient temperatures between
+15°C and +25°C (refer to Setting of
cooling compartment temperature).
The unit operates within its optimum
performance range.
Dometic refrigerators work according to the
absorption principle. For physical reasons, an
absorption system responds slowly to changes
made by the thermostat controller, by loss
of cooling energy through opening the door
or during storing food. The devices meet the
cooling performance requirements of the
Climatic Class SN acc. to EN/ISO 7371 in the
temperature range of +10°C to +32°C ambient
temperature.
Cold air can restrict the performance of the
unit. Install the winter covers if you discover
any loss of cooling performance when outdoor
temperatures are low (see
Operation during low outside temperatures).
For ambient temperatures exceeding +32°C
for a longer period of time, it is recommended
installing Dometic additional fan.
REFRIGERATOR OPERATION
The refrigerator is equipped to operate on
three power modes:
• Mains voltage (230v AC)
• Direct-current voltage (12v DC)
• Gas (liquid gas propane/butane)
Select the desired power mode by the
energy selector switch (battery igniter type
